Adhesive for small labels

[Rogersab1223]

Hello everyone -

What do you typically use as an adhesive for smaller labels glued to tubes. For stamps, seals, cigar labels, beer bottle neck labels, etc. What do you use to seal them prior to casting?

Thanks,
Andy

Thanks, I'm assuming you "brush" it on to get even coverage? Do you apply a sealant?

no, i actually just use my fingers. go quick and steady so it doesn't stick to you and pull off the ink from anything you're gluing down. i don't bother with a sealant, just let the CA sit overnight or so before casting. if you do it right fter it's cured, the fumes from the glue will cause cloudiness under the resin

Do you have anything over your finger ie plastic bag, paper towel?
