Review on Clear 100% Silicone Waterproof Caulk & Seal 2.8Oz Squeeze Tube (Pack Of 1) by John Iverson

I had read some place that this stuff worked great to adhere saw-tooth picture hooks to the back of decorative ceramic tile art for hanging on the wall. I had made about 100 jazz themed decorative tile for a customer who was going to be putting on a jazz concert and wanted to give her guests something to remember the day by. I had never worked with ceramic tiles before but got the hang of it quickly and really enjoyed creating these awesome tiles. At first she wanted the tiles to be coasters. The pictures were put on with Mod Podge and I know that is not water proof or even water resistant. Nor is it conducive to hot coffee mugs. I asked in multiple sites how to water proof and make these tiles heat resistant to no avail. You'd think it was the greatest knowledge known to man and threatening to people who had it on an individual basis if the knowledge was to become public. Keeping this a secret was a collective action by people who knew how to do it. You'd think they had found the holy grail or something. I'm just one little person, not a mega global business you'd want to retain stock in. So alas, I decided to make them wall art instead. Which in my opinion should of been the goal in the first place because these tiles turned out so awesome they were actual mini pieces of art. Anyone who would even think of putting a drink of any type on them would be non appreciative of the arts. So upon reading multiple suggestions on how to hang ceramic tile which essentially proved to be worthless a rockhounding friend of mine told me about this product. He said there were properties in the glue that when applied to ceramic tile formed a strong bond. The molecules in the tile bonded with the molecules in the glue. It's true. I used it as he suggested, a small amount on each end of the hook, enough to provide a firm footing, and was amazed. It dried very quickly, about 15 minutes or so, was easy to apply, was not messy, did not get all over my fingers or other things, and was easy to manipulate. It formed a strong bond. I would suggest it to any one who works with ceramic tiles. I don't know about other surfaces as I only used it on the tiles. And I give this find, which I think is remarkable, for anyone working with tiles freely and will continue to divulge "secrets" to fellow crafters when I discover something that works as well as this stuff.
