Clear Museum Gel Adhesive For Glass,Crystal, Delicates

Product Information

When looking for solutions to keep your valuables or favorites securely in place, you must have come across adhesives like museum putty and museum wax.

Even though both the museum wax and museum putty are adhesives used to hold valuables together, they work on very different surfaces.However, the same isn’t true for museum wax. As this adhesive is made from a composition of microcrystalline waxes, it is quite firm in consistency and isn’t as flexible as the museum putty. You have to cut it into smaller pieces before using it on your valuables. Curing Time

Now that you know the differences between museum putty and museum wax, let’s discuss museum putty vs. museum wax in detail for better understanding. Compatible SurfacesThe law of gravity still applies, and I have never tried to use this with something heavy mounted fully upright. I have, however, used this to hold a plate to a tripod easel that is mounted on the wall. If someone were to accidentally bump the easel frame, then the plate could fall. So I adhered the plate to the easel, and I no longer have to worry about it. Besides that, this putty has been holding my antique vases securely on a shelf for eight years now. I occasionally remove the vases and wash the shelf, then replace them with new putty, and I have had no problems. One of the things I noticed about this product is that it takes a significant amount of putty to keep an object in place. The instructions make it look like a thumbnail-sized pinch will do the job, but in reality, you have to use enough to flatten out to the size of a 50-cent piece before you feel any significant grip.
