Let’s take a hard look at some common liquid glue adhesives on the market and see what they do! It’s about time we have a comparison of the tried-and-true glues vs. the brand new glues (and everything in-between)!
I definitely have my own favorite liquid adhesives, and those favorites depend on a variety of factors:
- PROJECT I AM WORKING ON
- COST
- AVAILABILITY OF GLUE
- “WIGGLE ROOM”
- GLUE FLOW / CLOG FACTOR
- RESULT WHEN DRY
Watch the video comparison –
Here are the glues I tested –
…and the best prices for them I could find…
- Aleene’s Tacky Glue – SCRAPBOOK.COM
- Art Glitter Glue – SCRAPBOOK PAL
- Bearly Art Glue – SCRAPBOOK PAL
- Distress Collage Medium Matte – RANGER INK
- Elmer’s School Glue – AMAZON
- iCraft Ultra Bond Adhesive – THERMOWEB
- Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive – TONIC
- Tombow Mono XL – TOMBOW
Here’s how the glues look after 24 hours –

Plus, watch the video to see how each glue looks AS I SQUEEZE A BIT of each adhesive onto this cardstock.
I was really curious as to how the glues would perform with vellum, fun foam, and chipboard. I WAS VERY SURPRISED AT THE RESULTS!
Watch the video to see me pull off each item…

You won’t BELIEVE which glues didn’t hold the foam AT ALL! Can you guess which 2 glues didn’t hold foam?
