Why Should I use Glue Dots?
Glue Dots are not only safer, but faster than hot melt glue guns, as well as being cleaner than liquid adhesives and leave no sticky residue like some double sided tapes.
Are Glue Dots safe to use?
Glue Dots are FDA approved for direct and indirect contact with food as well as being non-toxic and odorlous there is no risk of incurring serious burns.
What tack should I use?
Whilst glue dots adhere to a wide variety of materials which include paper, plastic, foil, glass, aluminium, styrofoam, wood and many more - the level of tack you will get will depend entirely on the substrate to which you are attaching. For example - you would most likely find that a low tack would not attach to wood, or that a medium tack will tear tissue paper - even though it's considered removable. You may find you require more than one dot if the item you are adhereing to has a shiny surface, or if your item is heavy. For this reason we highly recommend that samples be requested. (please include your name and address).
How can I be assured of the best bond possible?
Moisture, lotions, oils, dust and some silicon-coated products may interfere with bonding, so make sure all surfaces are clear of any of these.
What is the shelf life of Glue Dots?
It is recommended that the product be stored in a clean and dry place without moisture or dust. Whilst they do not degrade over time it is also recommended that they be replaced after 18 months.
What are the hottest and coldest temperatures Glue Dots can withstand?
The optimum air temperature for the application of glue dots is between 10-32 degrees Celcius. The performance of glue dots in temperatures outside this range will depend largely on the substrates to which the glue dots have been applied to.
