Materials It Bonds:

We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return. Imagine giving a DIY crystal-embellished gift only for the gems to start popping off right out of the box. Or someone brushing against you at a party and the rhinestones on your purse or sleeve fall off. For a superior hold, it is best when the embellished fabric is not laundered for at least 7 days. Afterward, the bond is strong enough to handle delicate hand washing.

The overall winner for crystal glue is Gem-Tac by Beacons. It is strong, dependable, permanent glue in a 4fl-oz bottle. 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. Fabri-fuse takes a longer duration to dry, about 8 hours to set and 48 hours to cure, but it’s worth the wait. As long as it sets solidly and undisturbed, the crystals are going nowhere. Wool – The strongest is Gemtac with e6000 also giving a pretty good bond, both Fabri-Tac and The Ultimate glue were easy to rub the crystals of the wool so I wouldn’t recommend either of these.It is crystal clear and doesn’t cloud your tiny gems after drying. The nozzle is narrow and dispenses a small amount at a time but could be smaller for tinier crystals. The best thing about this formula is that it is water-based and non-toxic. What this means is that it is solvent-free.

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.Flexibility is critical when fabrics are involved. Fabric has drapey, flowy, or stretchy characteristics that give it a certain structure. Non-toxic, non-flammable, does not leave any residue on surface, no white haze, does not expand or foam-up while drying. These characteristics are affected when you adhere crystals with inflexible glue. Ensure the glue is elastic after drying to maintain the structure and wearability of the fabric item. However, the plethora of glue brands available makes it difficult to settle on the right one for your crystal craft. This Fabri-Fuse glue is the best glue for bonding crystals to clothing, costumes, and washable items. Though the one part epoxy glue works with all types of surfaces.
