Good price.: Art supplies

I gave 4 stars for a reason. I'll start this off by saying that I use this to glue my gauze and book spine canvas. The reason for the 4 stars is that it remains sticky even after 24 hours. It doesn't mean it will rub off, it just doesn't look like any other glue I've used on other things, get ModPodge PVA which dries in an hour or less and doesn't feel sticky. Of course, I continue the process the next day and use a combination of glue and bonding paste to glue the leather cover the traditional way, but I'm concerned that that sticky feeling is a sign of uncured glue. I have a rhythm in the way I create my books and I can't ruin it by waiting for this glue to set. If anyone knows what I mean and can answer if this is the problem, please let me know!

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Very expensive
