BEACON Zip Dry Fast-Drying Paper Art Glue - Archival Quality, Acid & Lignin Free, Wrinkle-Resistant Adhesive, 2-Ounce

Not sure how I ever survived without this glue. I used it to seal shut wedding invitation envelopes, which were very thick. This glue worked fantastic! Dried clear. I will never buy any other glue for sealing envelopes.

This is the only glue I will use for my small business. I use these for invitations - to glue them together! Mounting the invitation, to the corresponding pieces such as the belly band, and the tag. It dries pretty quickly. I typically give it a little extra time just to make sure. So far, this glue has not let me down.

For years I've had no choice but to use photo corners to adhere photos to my books and greeting cards. But when I wanted to make a board book for my 2 year old granddaughter, I had to find an adhesive that would adhere tightly (so she couldn't peel up the photos) and that would not wrinkle or warp the chipboard pages. The answer was Beacon Zip dry glue. It does not wrinkle paper, photos or card stock. It dries clear and any glue that seeps out from the edges of the photos is easy to wipe off and it does not mess up the face of the photo.Here are some hints for adhering photos:It only takes a thin line of glue around the edges of the back of the photo, but it must be continuous. If your line of glue has gaps, the photo may not adhere completely.After flipping the photo over into place, I gently press along the glue lines with a paper napkin. If you press too hard, the photo might shift out of place.DO NOT lay something heavy over your glued items like you might do with other glues. You will end up with stains.Always replace the white cap shortly after using to keep the entire bottle of glue from drying out.If you find the bottle difficult to squeeze on subsequent uses, it is because a very thin layer of glue has dried inside the applicator. I gently poke a toothpick into the applicator from the outside. If you do this carefully you can reach inside the applicator and pull out the dried glue. It will come out in a little sheet. Use a toothpick or your fingers to peel out any remaining glue.From now on this will be my go-to glue for photos and text for my projects that need to look their best.

I use this in my stationary business to adhere the layers of wedding invitations together. It has a little bit of a smell, but not much worse than a sharpie marker. It is so easy to work with and dries perfectly flat and any excess that may squeeze out can truly be rubbed off. It dries a little bit like the goop they use to hold new credit cards to the paper when they come in the mail, but if you glue paper to paper it holds VERY well once dry. One bottle for me will glue about 300-400 5x7 invites together, so it is well worth the price, especially compared to the roller adhesive options.Some Advice: I have tried putting the red cap on over the pointy tip for storage, but this will only work for a few days before the glue in the bottle dries out, it's much better to put the white cap back on for storage. you can peel any remaining glue from the pointy tip in one piece after it dries. The only time I had less than perfect results with this glue is when i glued two pieces of paper together and then put a book on top to weight it down. I got a slightly wet looking spot on the front of my paper since the glue did not have enough space to dry properly. (so don't weigh down your projects, just sick it and let it be).

I got a Silhouette Cameo about six months ago and found myself addicted to building crazy 3D paper models, boxes, etc, but I had a really hard time finding a good glue that would hold the parts together and not warp the paper. This glue came recommended by one of the designers who creates cut files for assorted 3D models so I figured I'd give it a shot, it couldn't fail at holding as bad as glue sticks did, or dry so hard that the paper lost all flexibility like Aleene's clear tacky glue does.Much to my surprise, I discovered that this glue is nothing short of amazing. It holds well even on things that get moved a lot (like drawers in a cardstock dresser), it dries quickly but allows a few seconds to reposition if needed, it doesn't alter the color of colored papers, but its best feature by far is the ability to just rub away excess glue if you get it where you don't want it.Less really is more with this glue, too, so despite it seeming expensive this little bottle will last quite a while since it takes just a few dots to hold things securely.So far I've used it on varying weights of cardstock and paper and I haven't had any issues. I've made 3D paper models, cards, envelopes, and assorted other multi-layered paper crafts with zero issues. I will happily never again buy any other glue, at least not for paper crafts.​

I bought this paper glue to use in my bullet journal. The bullet journal paper pages aren't really thick or heavy so I had some concerns at the time I ordered this glue. But I decided to try it out.I've used it on thin paper, like for attaching a sheet of regular lined notebook paper to a journal page and it performed perfectly. I wasn't sure if it would work so well on the thinner paper, but it came out totally free of any warping, wrinkles or bubbles. And the glue dries very quickly. I put on a thin layer of this glue and spread it evenly over the surface area I wanted attached. I also used this glue to attach some business cards to 2 journal pages that I want to keep where I can easily refer to them when I want to contact that merchant for new orders and not lose them. For cards that have order/merchant info on the back side as well as on the front, I glued the cards to another strip of paper and then glued that to the journal pages so I can flip them up to see it.So this glue works on all weights of paper and card stock really well. This is the only paper glue I will use from now on. It is versatile and a really good product.

This is the first glue I found to use on glitter paper for card making. Anything I tried before this and the papers came apart. This has great adhesion and I would buy it again.
