Heat-Activated Glue and Adhesives - Glue for Metal Leafing, Glitter and Powders

Heat-Activated Glue and Adhesive size (glue) for use with metal leafing, glitter, embossing and metallic powders

GourdSupplies.com carries heat-activated glue and adhesives for use with metal leafing, embossing powders, metallic accent pigment powders and glitter. These are ideal for scrapbooking, stamping, gourders and other crafts.

The Gluepad and refills from Stewart Superior come in two dynamic versions; white (clear) and black. White adds a more subtle enhancement and light glitter sparkle whereas the dark contrast from the Black Gluepad creates a more spectacular reflective effect. Two colors, two different results for too much fun!

Half the fun of using these are experimenting with these glues. Most people have found that the lighter colored powders show up better when used with the black stamp and stick heat-activated glue but some of the deeper powders work well with the white stamp and stick heat-activated glue.

You must heat set the glue with a embossing heat tool until the glue is no longer shiny, it will be sticky to accept your dry mediums. This is the NO MUSS, NO FUSS way adhesive to use with metal leafing, embossing powders and accent powders! Tips for using the glue: 1. FYI: when the directions say heat until tacky...it actually means heat to activate. I have found that it is virtually impossible to overheat it; you're more likely to burn your paper. However, this also means that it must be heat set all the way. Any patches of wet ink will cause whatever media you apply to it, to smear. 2. When you're working with gold leaf, pearl powders and chalks, we have found that these can be applied to a variety of surfaces. The gold leaf looks especially brilliant on black linen paper, but it can also be used on glass, gourds, plastic, a leather picture album, finished and un-finished wood. 3. Glitter, however must be used on a non-porous surface. Of all the media that we are talking about, glitter is the one that wants to stick the least. It needs that extra oomph, if you will, to hold. 4. So, when starting, stamp your image with the glue pad or applicator cube and heat to activate. This usually takes between 20-30 seconds, depending on the size of the image. When done, check to make sure that there aren't any spots of wet ink, and then apply your media.
