I mainly use polystyrene heads, or half mannequins, but I'd like to do a full mannequin which is some sort of plastic, but I don't know what kind of glue to use.
Gorilla glue or E6000 maybe?
E6000 holds everything
E6000.
I would use E6000. It is good for plastic, glass, metal and wood. Use with good ventilation as it is smelly smelly smelly.
I would go with E6000 for jewelry. It comes with great applicator tips that makes it easy to apply.
E-6000. They have several different types, and it is heat resistant.
Make sure you get one that dries clear! I accidentally got a tube that dries white! 😜
Thank you, I'll google that to see if I can get it in the UK
Thank you , I'll bear that in mind
It seems to be a popular adhesive to use, keep your fingers crossed I can get it in the U.K. - Thank you
Thank you, , I wonder what is going to be more cost effective, as I'm going to do a full size mannequin
Hi Lynne, I realize this is quite an old question, but I thought I'd share this brilliant site that let's you enter what you want to glue to what and it will tell you the best glue to use - https://www.thistothat.com/ I always use it to check first.
Thank you Michelle, I’m still using a glue gun - I’ll check that site out this weekend 👍 This is what I’m working on just now x
