Aleene's - Crystal Clear Tacky Spray

Crystal Clear Tacky Spray

Position delicate materials perfectly before the permanent bond sets

Repositioning time matters when precision alignment is critical. This spray adhesive stays wet for approximately 60 seconds after application, giving you actual working time to adjust placement before the bond sets. That window eliminates the anxiety of permanent-on-contact formulas where one misalignment ruins your materials.

The formula dries crystal clear and acid-free, maintaining archival integrity for paper projects while creating permanent bonds strong enough for cardboard and light wood assemblies. Apply it to flat surfaces where even coverage matters, collage work, paper construction, adhering prints to backing boards. The spray application provides consistent coverage without the pooling or edge buildup that liquid adhesives create, particularly valuable when working with thin papers that telegraph texture.

Aleene's formulates this for crafters who need both strength and control. Once positioned correctly and dried, bonded surfaces stay put through handling and display. The clarity means no visible adhesive lines on translucent materials or white papers. Keep ventilation adequate during application and allow full cure time for maximum bond strength.
