I would buy this product again and again

I make "money" shirts and use the rubber cement to glue down the real money so the money can be easily removed and used. I take orders for gifts. [@]

I have a lot of projects to make for school and I thought using the rubber cement would be a lot more effective than just regular glue, but found it to be just as much of a heartache as regular white glue. There are very few things that this rubber cement will hold up on. I found that if I need to attach small items like beads, then this glue will work, but if I have to bond things like poster board or foam, this just does not work all that well. It can also start to make a mess, especially if begins to build up on the brush. I would use hot glue and put up with the extra mess if it means that my projects can get finished.

A timeless classic

Pros

  • Durable
  • Good Grip

Cons

  • Heavy
  • Lacks Power

Best Uses

  • At Home

Comments about Borden Elmer's Rubber Cement:

This stuff is timeless. When you need a pretty tight flexible bond, where else will you go for short money? Spread the leftovers on a hard surface, let dry, and roll up with your fingertips into a bouncy ball... two products in one!

  • Primary use:
  • Personal

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Borden Elmer's Rubber Cement:

        I use this rubber cement for making posters. After you paste the picture to the poster you can remove the excess rubber cement. It leaves the poster very clean looking.

        By Tiger Lily

        from Long Beach, CA

        Verified Buyer

        Pros

        • Dries Quickly
        • Easy Application
        • Very Adhesive

        Cons

          Best Uses

          • Permanent Adhesion
          • Quick Fixes

          Comments about Borden Elmer's Rubber Cement:

          The longevity of the adhesion depends on whether you apply it on BOTH surfaces to be glued together or only one. If you apply it to both surfaces and let it dry a few minutes and THEN stick them together you will get the best results ( a little trick I learned in an applied arts class).

          Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
