It’s from the best manufacturer and seller, very smooth easy use bottle and brush, had fixed lots of my issues from speakers to shoes, various implementations, u might require a smaller Brush or cotton buds when dealing with electronics, thnx for the seller for the fast delivery

UPDATE March 2015: Excellent product but the price on this 8 oz bottle has more than doubled since my first review was written. Now, I buy the quart size, which doesn't have an applicator, but I refill the smaller bottles I have when about empty. A much better value per oz, at least since the price increase which places this 8 oz bottle now over $8. Bottom line: always compare prices when shopping, prices fluctuate quickly.Still a top quality rubber cement glue.```An excellent glue for crafting and sticking all types of things, especially paper to paper. Not for kids, as it is a fire hazard if used improperly. It is a lasting glue that leaves paper wrinkle free, and it is acid free for photo and important document use. Items can be removed and moved but it must be done with great care.I do vast amounts of genealogy and past photos, news items, and such, onto record pages. My wife uses this as a hobby glue for many things such as scrapbooking and greeting card making. Excellent choice for both. A fantastic feature not available with almost any other glue is the fact that if it squishes out the side of a glued item, once it is dry it will rub off with no sign of residue. Crafting includes gluing ribbon, cloth, plastics, buttons, feathers, leather, almost anything.Very useful for business display pieces needing glue.But since it is not water base, test it first on any surface material you are unfamiliar with.Items can be glued by applying to one surface and make contact while wet, application to both surfaces and attach immediately, or both surfaces, allow to dry, then put into place, but be sure of location prior to touching. It will not move easily once the first touch takes place.Caution: it is highly flammable, so do now use around flame, spark, while smoking, etc.Most economical of this Elmer's brand, even better than a larger quantity. The 8oz jar can qualify for free shipping if the order is above the minimum.I've tried other brands, and always come back to Elmer's for rubber cement and white glue.White glue is not wrinkle free.

Reading some reviews here, I see that some people make the mistake of assuming that any glue or cement should suit all purposes. In fact, most glues are best suited for specific purposes; that is why there are so many different kinds.Rubber cement is unique in a few ways. It is not water based; that is evident as soon as you open the jar. It smells of an organic solvent. You don't want to breathe in a lot of that. Best to use it in a ventilated area.In the name of the product is what it excels at: "no wrinkle". The solvent in it causes the cement to reduce in volume as it dries, that is, it shrinks, so it makes a snug fit.It is especially well suited to gluing fairly flexible things - like paper or foil - to many other things, like paper, foil, plastic, wood, metal, etc. The solvent could be reactive to some things, making it unsuitable for some materials. Items glued down with rubber cement can often be peeled away even after the glue has dried; the glue can usually be rubbed off. On some porous substances (some kinds of paper) the glue could soak in and change the color.It may also be suited for fixing items together in a temporary fashion, in which case the glue can often be rubbed off. But when attached to rigid materials and especially when protected (e.g. covered with a laminate) it is reasonably permanent.Because it is not water soluble, it might be handy for joining things that need to stay stuck while immersed in water.It is used a lot by all kinds of crafts. I like to print templates or labels designed on the computer, then trim them with scissors or a paper cutter, then use rubber cement to attach it to metal, plastic, or wood. Then I take it down to the shop and use the printed guides to cut or drill. I can also overlay the result with clear laminate to have a permanent, protected and professional-looking panel, for example in electronics projects.Rubber cement is not especially well suited to joining hard things to other hard things - materials like plastic, wood, metal, and so on - except for temporary purposes, in which case it can be very handy if you need to separate them later and remove the glue. For example, to cut sheet aluminum, I may glue plywood to both sides with rubber cement for more rigidity, cut it, then remove the plywood.Last, chemical interactions with old-style (pre-digital) photographs could potentially fade the photographic image with time; this may apply to other kinds of printed material with time as well.

So I have a problem, and no, it doesn't have to do with sniffing glue. At my job we have plastic A-frame sign holders, and I had this fantastic idea about getting some  Post-it Dry Erase Surface (3 ft x 2 ft) - Great for Tables, Desks and Other Surfaces!  and sticking them to the A-frames, in essence turning them into easily transportable whiteboard surfaces. The problem was that true to the reviews on the dry erase surface, the backing on them is horrible. Truth be told, I totally ignored the bad ratings because people were complaining about how they were falling off walls... well... I wasn't sticking them to a wall... I was sticking them to a flat plastic surface... so surely I wouldn't have the same issues that others were having!Well... I was wrong, and I don't mind admitting it. So after sticking 4 dry erase surfaces to the A-frames within 48 hours I had 4 dry erase surfaces sticking to the ground because they had fallen off, and at almost $26/surface I wasn't giving up on them by just throwing them away! This is where the rubber cement comes into play! Using my awesome gluing skills that I mastered back in elementary school, I used the entire 8oz. bottle to glue 2 of the 2ftx3ft dry erase surfaces back onto the A-frames (I'll need to order another bottle to do the remaining two surfaces), and there they remain almost 3 weeks later! These glued surfaces were even already used on a day where it unexpectedly started to rain and despite sitting in the rain for a good solid hour, it doesn't appear that these surfaces are about to fall off anytime in the near future!P.S. Seriously though, don't sniff glue... that's bad for you! Make sure you apply it in a well ventilated room! Post-it Dry Erase Surface (3 ft x 2 ft) - Great for Tables, Desks and Other Surfaces!

I just needed a tiny dab of rubber cement to fix one of the nose pieces on my glasses but unfortunately, like many single adults today I lack access to Kindergarten Classes and/or teachers. So I did a search on Amazon for what I needed. Problem is that there really isn't any decent descriptors of how big a bottle I was getting. It turns out I got the size just below where they start selling it in 50 gallon oil drums. Sure, they listed the ounces of glue in the various bottles, but that really doesn't tell you much. A much better way would be to place a ruler or even better a quarter next to the bottle. But I digress.With out such simple measures of scale, I got enough rubber cement for my money to repair a THOUSAND eyeglass nose-pieces, or to more accurately put it, to supply an entire kindergarten class with glue for one full school year. If you only need a small amount of rubber cement, buy a smaller size bottle of Elmer's finest rubber cement. However, if you need to glue a couple dozen reams of construction paper cut into odd shapes together this is the glue bottle for you. I repaired my eyeglasses several months ago and that pesky nose-piece hasn't fallen off since yet still maintains a comfortable flexibility due to that gummy nature we've come to expect of Elmer's Rubber Cement products.

My favorite adhesive for card making and papercrafting. Dries clear with no wrinkles or warping, and it stays stuck! Brush applicator is perfect for getting under and into tiny spots that were missed. It was great in kindergarten; still great today.Shipping... Not as great... Hence 4 stars instead of 5. Took a month to arrive via USPS, and the jar was partially open so it had leaked all over. Thankfully it was double wrapped, and the mess was isolated to this product. Will be looking for a different supplier.
