Question 1

Can I use this glue to glue the rhinestones to the acrylic nails?

Accepted Answer

Well, I tried this glue with expensive rhinestones on expensive sunglasses I sell and it did not work. All the hours so carefully first designing then applying the glue to the rhinestones as directed didn't work, half the stones fell off.. Never again. Now the nails are even more used and knocked around, so I would stay away from this product. But I did find a wonderful glue with a full proof applicator brush leaves enough clear glue where the stones are placed and when dry at least 5 seconds they don't move or change color either. Its called (Scotch brush  on Super Glue) by GM Its a very small  bottle 0.17 oz (5g) and  for me because I am an artist and use it a lot is costly, but the best is Amazon has the lowest prices and free shipping for prime customers. I bought package of 6 of Scotch Super Glue Liquid Brush-On, .17 Ounces, 6-PACK (AD127) sold by Office Supply Express for $26.99 free shipping.

Question 2

Is this glue stronger than E600? I want to use it to add rhinestones to my license plate & want to know which one can last thru various weather.

Accepted Answer

Beware of E6000 on foil-backed rhinestones. Suddenly I am now reading in numerous sites that it eats away at the foil backing and makes acrylic gems cloudy. I'm here shopping for a substitute to E600 for that reason. Otherwise, it's the best glue I've ever used for other things. So far I've been lucky using it on those foil-backed stones but don't want to take chances. ALSO, I've just visited numerous other sites and if my homework helps you all, good. Beacon Gem-Tac is getting rave reviews from every one with concerns about the foil-back gems problem. (I don't work for them. Just passing my lessons along.)

Question 3

I used Aleene's clear tacky glue on hot fix Rhinestones and it appeared to be cloudy, does this do the same?

Accepted Answer

I recently answer your question and made a mistake on my glues. I use Aleene clear glue as well, and I indicated that Gem-tac dries clear, it's the Aleene that dries clear. However, I really like the Gem-tac and has purchased it more than once, because it works great; it is milky, but I love it for many of my projects. Sorry about the mix-up; hope this helps and clarify my truth. Thanks!
