Hockey Fan: Followed directions to the letter, applied to what I needed to glue, let cure for 24 hours plus, seemed fine was adhesion between my two fabrics, yet put in a cold wash and all peeled apart not impressed.

Shahida Shamsuddin: It is a good product but if heavier items are glued on it then does not stick and more glue is used so you don’t get value of the money paid. It would be more beneficial to either size it up or make it less expensive.

Davy: This was primarily used for fabric. I have not used a lot of fabric glue, but it certainly works for me. Quick drying, very very strong and odourless. Did make a bit of a mess, but that's down to the user. It does what it says on the tin.

J: I used this product on a handmade quilt. One of the characters was breaking away from the stitching in a couple of areas. A fabric adhesive seemed appropriate for this small job. The adhesive worked great and dried quickly. I have no idea how it will hold up in a gentle wash cycle, but I'm off to a great start. I would recommend this product for the obvious appropriate use.

RazzleBrazzel: Sticks great. I have a pair of cycling shorts that are about 10 years old and are starting to come apart at the seams. This stuff stuck them back together great! The shorts have been through two washes and appear to be holding together well.

BethBeth: I first bought the Dritz iron-on tape for this project, attaching the logo from an old tee shirt onto a new one. But I came to realize it was too wide for the allowable tiny bit of hem available to be turned under. The glue was perfect for that part of the project, though it did take some experimentation on scraps first. If it was just a tad thicker it would have been easier but ultimately it worked well. After giving it overnight to set well I then used the iron-on tape to attach the logo to the shirt. It finished as a weird asymmetrical look but not bad given what I had to work with from the logo’s old shirt.

OrthoJ: This stuff is great. I used it on 3 different fabrics. I glued appliques to a burlap tote, I fixed a seam on a rayon jumpsuit which ripped after a wash, and I glued the innersole of my shoe back down after it started lifting up and sliding out when I would remove my foot from my shoe. I have to say in all these instances it worked really well.
I took the advice of another reviewer, and I weighed down the objects with books while the glue dried. I believe this creates a nice tight bond. What is great is that the glue dries flexible, so it is not stiff and hard. And it dries clear, so if you have a little spillover, it is hard to notice.
The edges of the appliques have not lifted at all, even with multiple uses. My innersole stays put when I remove my shoe.
I cannot comment of how it holds up to multiple washings, but so far, so good!!

emeleste: I had bought some of this glue several years ago for some project or other...I forget now what. I put it away afterwards and forgot about it. Recently I started making craft projects again, and needed some good fabric glue. Found the old tube in my craft supply box and thought I'd give it a try for putting some rubberized soling material on the bottom of some slippers. Not only was the glue still "good" and spreadable...it WORKED! The soles I glued on those slippers are still going strong, even after almost daily wear for the past 9 months! I've since used up that old tube on other projects, and have been very pleased with the results. Got some more of this glue...and it's just as good as the first tube. I won't be without this stuff! I can use it for putting on trims, embellishments and even hems...avoiding having to get out the ol' needle and thread. Highly recommended. And no...it's not "instant" drying like super glue. But it does dry reasonably fast. Faster than some other fabric glues I've tried since. Also, the glue dries flexible, and without a stiff feeling to it.

Jancal: My mother could hem pants & skirts perfectly freestyle without a sewing machine, an art that I could never master and which sent me to the tailor's to hem pants for years. That is, until I discovered this product a few years ago. This adhesive cream comes out like Elmer's glue but isn't sticky to work with, it goes on in a thin line (or two if you're hemming more than 1"), just lay the pants out on a table or the floor, apply per instructions, press each side & edges, then put something heavy over each leg to set the hem (don't laugh, I use pyrex pans). I wait 30 minutes, take the weight off & I have a pair of evenly shortened pants. Just be sure you apply the cream middle to bottom of the hem line, not near the top so there isn't overflow & the pants don't stick together. This is a quick & simple solution to sewing, even if you use a machine.
