If I could give 0 stars I would. I have an Etsy shop and need hot glue for many of my items. This is by far my least favorite! Drying takes over 30 seconds. So if you have multiple orders per day and need to act fast, this is NOT for you. If you accidentally touch the adhesive during application, it will turn bright white, ruining the appearance of your product and making it look dirty. I don't understand why it holds better than other glue as I have watched my materials detach from other hot glue that holds well. It's also frustrating because the materials float, but the ugly white goo that's left behind NEVER SEPARATES. He ruined several of my products. I won't use it again. Not recommended for crafts.
