Review on Adtech 05603 Permanent Glue Runner - 35Yds Total (4-Pack Each), Individually Sold by Doris Tran

I thought I had a defective product. Shame as I bought two packs of 4. I tried using them over and over again and ended up with half a sheet of glue otherwise the glue would stick to the end of the slider and then mess up the tape. It was a disaster! It's all about the technique of how you hold and use the tape dispenser! You need to hold the tape dispenser directly on the paper. Using even pressure and a slightly heavy hand, pull straight toward you in one steady motion and you will apply a straight, even line of glue. I don't know why I had such a learning curve or why I found it difficult. I've been using these band runners for years. This particular brand felt slightly different than how it felt in my hand, forcing me to relearn how to hold and use it properly. After some practice I figured it out and it works great. They feel a bit cheap like I'm going to break them if I put some force on the handle while holding them, but they're made with a quality permanent adhesive. When I say permanent, you better hope you don't budge from what you record. They are acid free and are great for scrapbooking and all paper crafts. I especially like using mine for my planner and linking pages I may have messed up, or for Frankenplaning. They're also great for attaching something small, and because they're permanent you can attach almost anything paper related. Overall I think it's a great product and a good bang for your buck. With over 26 feet of ribbon x 4 ribbon guides in one box, it's a phenomenal investment for all your crafting needs.
