  • A very good PVA glue
Size: Custom
Great and strong acid-free PVA glue. It is a liquid paste that is semi-flexible (think if Elmer's glue but professional strength while being pH-neutral so that it resists yellowing). I have used this as part of the materials to hold together a rebound book with a split spine and adding a new cover. Holds up well on paper, cardboard, fabric, and leather when using the right amount. Glue can be watered down if too thick, but there is some mastering needed for this accepted technique. Pairs great with a paper folding/scoring tool, and cleans up with water before drying. Looking forward to seeing how it holds up over the years. Only downside is the nozzle clogs, but more importantly has stored well when not in use. ... show more

For most of my life I have done bookbinding with yes paste. My yes paste turned into a solid rock and I decided to try this. I have already done two books and I do not miss the yes! This is got a really nice body it's easy to spread but not too runny it dries really quickly and it does a wonderful glue spine. I'm really really happy I'm going to use it for everything. My only complaint would be that mine didn't come with a cap which... Maybe it wasn't supposed to ... show more

  • Excellent Glue
I've never bound a book before or used this glue before. After reading the reviews and questions I decided this was the glue to try. I'm very pleased with it. I'm taking off old covers and recovering. I learned quickly this glue sets and dries quickly so make sure to work quick. Also use wax paper between the cover you are gluing and the rest of the book, otherwise you'll glue the new leather on and several sheets of the book with it. You must also be careful not to spread the glue so it covers the paper edges because it will glue them together. After letting dry for 24 hours the glue is clear and very sturdy. It reminds me of Elmers glue when using it but it sets way faster. I squeeze a little into a container and then paint on with my glue brush. Be sure not to use too much or let it sit for very long because it will start to harden in the container. It cleans with water. So I rinse my container and my brush thoroughly. It comes off with no trouble and rinses clean. My only complaint on this glue is there are no directions on the bottle for things such as setting time or how to clean. For newbies like myself if there wasn't questions on Amazon by other shoppers I'd been at a loss as to how to really use this glue. If you are binding a book, get this stuff. I'm putting leather on the books I'm doing and it sticks like nobody's business. ... show more

I bought this to use with my RR when I need an arc acid free clue in this seems to do the trick. It’s great glue to use to do collage and to laminate photos on wood surfaces. It works and holds really well. It’s just the right consistency and thickness. Dries pretty fast. Great amount for the price. Would have liked it more if they would’ve put a more durable cover for the nozzle top. ... show more

Don't understand the negative reviews on this one. Great for paper on paper gluing. Archival quality. What more could you ask for?

  • Fantastic Glue
Size: Custom
I bought this glue to adhere fabric the papier mache boxes I am building since it is designed for book binding. It is truly amazing. It is not watery like other pages, and a little goes a long way. It does not bleed through the fabric, and creates an excellent bond. I have also used it on paper to paper projects and it does not cause wrinkling or bubbling. Very happy with this glue - will be trying it with leather to paper for journals next. I am sure it will be just as incredible as it is with fabric. ... show more

  • Great for book rebinding

I use this glue for bible reminding. It drys fast. The quality of the glue is excellent. If your looking for something transparent this is not it. It does dry white so clearity it a thing to consider. It flows out of the bottle very easy so be careful. I have used it to glue otherthings as well and it works fine so it is versatile. ... show more
