Celebrate over 75 years of crafts with Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue! In 1950, Aleene Jackson broke barriers within the craft industry as she developed a specialty crafting adhesive, now known as “Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue.” She chose the iconic gold bottle that is still used today to reflect the premium quality of its contents: the gold standard of adhesives. Tacky Glue works on just about every surface: its thick, tacky formula grabs items on contact and dries super strong, permanent, and clear, making it great for crafts, hobbies, DIYs, and household repairs. Features 1 (4 fl. oz.) bottle of Aleene’s Original Tacky Glue.
Always test for best results.
Dry time will depend on how much glue was used and the temperature and humidity level in your area. A general dry time estimate for this glue is 37-47 minutes based on testing with a 3-millimeter coating at 70-73 degrees Fahrenheit. Thicker applications will dry at a slower rate.
