FAQs

What is a glue applicator used for?

A glue applicator lets you dispense a small, controlled amount of adhesive in exactly the right spot. In crystal work, that means placing a tiny dot of glue for each non hotfix rhinestone so the stone sits flat and no glue shows around the edges. It's also handy for nail art, jewellery making, card making and general craft projects.

Which glues can I use in the syringes?

The syringes work well with most craft and embellishing glues, including Gem Tac. Draw the glue into the syringe, fit a twist-on tip and you're ready to go. If you're using a thicker adhesive, a wider tip will help it flow more easily. Have a look at our adhesives collection if you're not sure which glue suits your project.

How do I stop the tips from clogging?

Glue can dry inside the tip if it's left standing, so it's best to work in short sessions and clean the tip as soon as you're finished. For water-based glues such as Gem Tac, simply rinse the tip and syringe in warm water straight after use. If a tip does block, a fine pin will usually clear it, or you can just twist on a fresh one from the kit.

Can I reuse the syringes?

Yes. As long as you clean them out before the glue sets, the syringes and tips can be used again and again. Once a syringe has become stiff or a tip is too clogged to clear, just swap it for a new one from the kit or pick up a pack of replacement tips.

Is this kit suitable for nail art?

Yes, and it's especially useful for placing small nail art crystals and gems one at a time. The fine tips let you apply the smallest possible dot of adhesive, so you get a secure hold without excess glue spoiling the finish.
