what is the best glue to use to apply swarovski crystals to a cathedral tulle veil. I have E6000, but I think it may be too heavy of a glue. Also, if anyone uses a filter mask, which filters do you use? I am currently using a 3M mask with the organic ‘6055’ filters.

The B7000 is clear and dries relatively faster in less than 24 hours. It flexes like rubber upon drying. These features make it perfect for crystallizing washable items like clothing. Another reason to love this glue is that it is waterproof. Bedazzled items can be washed without fear of your crystals coming loose. You can rely on Gemtac to glue many of your craft projects whether you want to decorate champagne bottles, lampshades, light switches, clothes and accessories. Great for bonding lace, fabrics, trims, and decorative wire to glass, ceramics, patent leather, wood, vinyl, leather, and more. Therefore, it is important to use it sparingly to remain invisible behind the stone. This glue is solvent-based, but the odor is faint and not off-putting. 4. Shoegoo Mini Adhesive

I´ve been reading your articles and I must say that – until now, they are the easiest and best explained that I´ve found related to Swarovski´s crystal. E6000 is quite hard to buy in terms of you can never quite match the picture to what you will actually be sent. Although the picture says medium viscosity, I am often sent the high viscosity which is difficult to work with.

If you make a mistake, the glue is easy to peel off without leaving a mark the majority of the time. Flexibility is critical when fabrics are involved. Fabric has drapey, flowy, or stretchy characteristics that give it a certain structure.Of the various ways to fix crystals – sewing, prong setting, heat setting – gluing is the most preferred method. This is mainly due to its versatility and simplicity. Furthermore, the glue might also seep out around the edges of the crystal, making the application unsightly. You can get away with a messy application with crystal clear glue as it goes unnoticed. Flexibility G-S Hypo Cement is another alternative if you are looking for a temporary fix of crystals you’ll dislodge later. It is not as strong as epoxy glue but rather medium strength.

However, the application can get messy because the capped end has a large opening, and the adhesive is goopy. Another question I have is about the longevity of gem tac. I am worried after time, does the gem tac deteriorate and the rhinestones loosen? (much like if you leave sellotape for a long time, it dries and becomes ‘brittle’). The good thing is Hypo Cement doesn’t affect the crystals nor the surface you are bonding them to. It works on virtually every surface. I have not yet found a glue to beat E6000, but my biggest concern about the glue is the strong fumes it gives off, which I worry is harmful as I use it on a daily basis. It is my understand that this a not a problem when the glue is dry, as it is just the vapours of the glue that makes it harmful. I’m decorating my daughter competition tutu with rhinestones and wondered which glue you would recommend?
