Do not use for making candy or fruit baskets. The adhesion is stronger than traditional hot glue sticks. Hence the name gorilla. Very easy to use. Cleaning is easy when it's still warm. Used it to glue seals that had lost their stickiness around my doors to keep out the cold. I also used it to keep the velcro strip on the bag from falling apart. Works great with repairing my statue that had a piece fall off. Dries clear and looks clean. Ideal for simple repairs with strong adhesion.
