I purchased Gloo to glue cured polymer clay pieces together. The bottle doesn't say that it can be used for this purpose, but the store manager thought that it could be used. Has anyone has used this glue with success?

I can't say that I've ever used that glue. Do you apply before or after curing your piece. The glue I use (E-6000) goes on before you put the piece in the oven and that seems to make it that much stronger.

Personally I would stick to stuff that is made specifically for polymer clay and related materials. But who knows, go ahead and try it out, you might have found a better glue. Give it a shot, and if it doesnt work just try something else. That's pretty much what I do on every project of mine Smile You should see the mound of failed projects or incomplete projects I have Shocked


Good Luck Linda, Let me know how it works out!

I am having trouble with keeping peices together as well. I have tried liquid sculpey, super glue and am now trying epoxy. Any hints?

Hi,
Lisa Pavelka has a glue out called Poly-Bonder, it can be baked up to 300 degrees and is made for polymer clay. It's like super glue, but with an applicator brush (kind of like nail polish) that makes it easier to apply. They sell it here, you might want to try it.
