What Types of Glue is Needed for Craft Projects


There are several types of glue for different needs, such as- glue for ceramic, glue for felt, glue for plastic, glue for metal, glue for Shoe, wood glue, glue for glass, glue for leather, and so on. You may or may not know all of these glues. However, you will learn something new below. Let’s discuss these glues and their using purposes!

Ceramic Glue


If you have any broken ceramic product and want to fix it, there is no better way without ceramic glue. It does not mean that you need a ceramic repair glue to fix such problems.

You can make a change in your ceramic products, and even you can make some new ceramic products by using ceramic glue! From my personal experience, 3M 18040 1 1 Ceramic Adhesive is one of the best glue which you can use!

Felt Bonding Glue


From my personal experience, most DIYer love felt projects. These projects are really difficult to complete successfully. A glue that is specially made for the felt projects is a must to get the desired success.

You can make your innovative ideas happen with a good quality felt glue! From my personal experience, Beacon Adhesives Felt Glue is one of the best glue which you can buy!

Plastic Repair Glue


If you are in such a project that plastic is the main material, a glue for plastic is the first thing that can make your project successful. All types of glue can’t make a good bond with plastic.

Therefore, you have to use glue, which is specially made for applying to plastic! From my personal experience, J-B Weld 50133 Plastic Bonder Structural Adhesive Syringe is one of the best glue which you can use!

Metal Bonding Glue


If you like jewelry projects and have a big plan to do it vastly or if you need to fix your bike problem, glue for metal is the first thing you need. Again, some of our DIY projects required welding.

In such a situation, if you haven’t a welding machine, you may not want to buy one as it’s a costly product, and you will not need it frequently! The solution is just buying a glue that is made to use on metal. From my personal experience, Gorilla Super Glue Gel is one of the best glue that you can purchase!

Shoe Repair Glue


If you have some used but loving shoes and need to repair them, then glue for shoe will be your best friend. You can complete the repairing task yourself and without any hassle with a shoe glue! But, you must buy the right glue which is really made to apply for shoes.

And, it’s a tough job to select a heavy-duty shoe glue. For this purpose, I suggest you Shoe Goo Repair Adhesive for Fixing Worn Shoes or Boots. It’s a nice and heavy-duty shoe glue ever.

Wood Projects Glue


If you like wood projects and passionate about making wood products, then wood glue is the best way to make your job easier as well as long-lasting. Wood products have to be heavy-duty as we use them for various needs.

So, for making your wood product heavy-duty, you have to look for the best wood glue available in the market. The right choice will make your wood products long-lasting and high quality! From my personal experience, Gorilla Wood Glue is one of the best glue that you can apply to your wood projects!

Glass Repair Glue


Like Ceramic products, glass products are also risky to use. These can break in the twinkling of an eye, and you will be upset! If you have such broken glass products and searching for a solution, then glue for glass is a must for you!

If you want to make it your next project, I suggest you purchase Gorilla Epoxy, .85 oz. right now. From my personal experience, this glue is outstanding to bond glass products.

Leather Crafts Glue


There are some DIYers who like leather products and mostly be busy with leather projects. The funny thing is that I’m also a leather product lover! When I go for some leather projects and target to make something new, I face problems while I sew them. You can’t believe how ugly it looks after sewing!

I was in search of a great solution to this problem, and I got it! Now, for avoiding such an unexpected thing, I take some leather bonding glue, which is really made for use on leather. And I got Barge All-purpose Cement Rubber Leather Shoe Waterproof Glue as the best one. You, too, can purchase it!

Final Verdict

Craft projects are really enjoyable as well as enchanting. But, some lack of knowledge can ruin our enjoyment! I feel how much it is painful if a project fails, though sacrificing enough time, labor, and so on!

I hope you will not face such an unexpected experience from today as you have already known about various types of glues for different craft projects and can apply them.
