Mono Multi Questions
 
I just bought some mono multi & am working on my Christmas cards. I wondered if it's stong enought to hold on a crystal if I put it in a dot of multi on the paper?. I also wondered if it dries clear?

I use mine all the time but never have on crystals so am not quite sure of the answer.

However, wanted to give you a little suggestion about using it. When I have used it to apply little beads, colored crytals or tiny pearls, I put a drop of it on an old cd or something and then take a pin and put it on the back of the embellishment. It helps by not getting too much on it for you can control it better. I sometimes, depending on what I am attaching, hold it with a long pair of tweezers too and then use the tweezers to place it with more accuracy.

Hope this helps you out a bit.

Hope this helps

I bet it would hold it! I love Mono Multi- it's very strong! It may take a little longer to set than normal, though!

Yes, the Mono Multi will hold your crystal in place. For my Christmas cards last year, I put a crystal in the center of one of the Snow Flurries snowflakes, then popped the snowflake up on a dimensional. I was worried that the crystal get rubbed off, going through the mail like that and everything, but everyone said that the card arrived in one piece and crystal still attached! And yes, it dries pretty clear.

After that little test, I was convinced that Mono Multi is the best adhesive and I use it exclusively now, for everything. Hope this helps! :)

you could always test one out on a scrap cardstock to test it, although I'm sure you already thought of that ;)

MM holds ANYTHING! I use it to attach metal charms, hold my paper clip bookmarks together, etc. It's stampers super glue.
