Gorilla Glue

Gorilla Glue is a versatile interior/exterior adhesive that is ideal for most household fixes and building projects. Works great on wood, stone, metal, ceramic and more. It is incredibly strong and is 100% waterproof. Avoid contact, wear gloves. This glue will stain skin and ruin clothes. Keep out of the reach of children.

Precision glue pen, 3/4 oz. Fast cure, dries White and has a precision applicator for small jobs or tight places. Liquid glue expands three to four times surface area when bonded together. A little goes a long way.

$5.49

 

 
DG3 Art Gel

DG3 Art Gel gives a glossy finish that will adhere strongly to plastic, metal, glass, wood and paper. Ideal for use in jewelry and polymer clay. Multiple layers remain crystal clear. Thin layers dry fast, wait until dry to re-coat. It can be colored with pigments and dyes.

A bit thicker than Diamond Glaze (so DG3 is better for deeper pendants). Becky Nunn from Nunn Design recommends it in her video tutorial.

Do not shake; keep tightly capped. Clean up with water before allowing to dry. Use safe work practices: avoid ingestion and excessive skin contact.

G-S Hypo Cement

Works for all types of non-porous bonding such as setting cabochons into a bezel, setting rhinestones on glass or metal, or gluing glass beads together. This glue was originally made for watchmakers. The tube has a pinpoint applicator that makes it possible to do precision gluing.

1/3 ounce tube

$4.49


 
G-S Hypo Fabric Cement

Has the same fine tip at the "regular" G-S Hypo Cement, but is better for securing tied thread knots, fraying fringe threads or other porous surfaces (fabric, textiles, leather, plastic and foam).

1/3 ounce tube

$4.49


 

 
Ultra-Seal

Ultra-Seal can be used as a sealant, glue, or for layering objects within a pendant frame (it will not cloud when layered, nor will it interact with the copper plating). After Design Team Member Teri Calia tried some, she wouldn't give it back! (I believe "out of my cold, dead hands" was uttered.)

Becky Nunn from Nunn Design recommends it in her video tutorial.

$10.49/4 ounce tub

 

 
Diamond Glaze

An acrylic sealant that's thick and gives a nice clear finish to small artwork. No special tools needed (but a little patience while waiting for it to dry).

Comes in a 2 ounce bottle. You can mix dyes into the glaze to create faux stained glass. More info and how-to tips are here.
