In this week’s Friday Findings I’m working with GS Hypo Cement glue. I chose it to try out because many crafters and jewelers seem to enjoy using it, especially to finish off knots in bead weaving bracelets.<\/p>\n

\"ff<\/a><\/p>\n

I tested the glue on a variety of surfaces including polymer clay, metal, beads and glass. I did my best to follow the directions carefully, but as you’ll see in the video I was mostly disappointed in the results.<\/p>\n

I’m not entirely convinced that this is not a good glue, as the places where it held it held very well. It’s quite possible that there’s some operator error involved, either using too much or too little glue, or perhaps incorrect surface preparation. I strongly suggest if you want to use this glue that you do your own testing and experiments. Please be sure to share your results with us!<\/p>\n

I’ll also show you in the video how to deal with the constant ooze that is a problem with the very fine precision tip, and how to get that rascally needle back into that tiny, tiny tip!<\/p>\n

Here are a few of the different types of glues they make. I’ve only tried the one I show in the video (first on the list.)<\/p>\n
