Scotch Quick-Dry Tacky Adhesive

Bond dimensional embellishments to mixed media without bleed-through

Three-dimensional elements need adhesive that grabs fast without the mess of stringing or bleed-through. This tacky formula sets paper bonds in under a minute, holding firmly while drying completely clear. The fine-tip applicator lets you place precise dots or controlled lines exactly where you need them, essential when attaching delicate paper elements or small dimensional objects to mixed media work.

The quick-dry formula means less waiting between layers and fewer opportunities for pieces to shift during assembly. Photo-safe and acid-free properties protect archival projects from degradation, while the non-stringing consistency eliminates those frustrating adhesive threads that plague other tacky glues. Works across paper, plastic, and metal surfaces, making it genuinely versatile for collage, assemblage, and dimensional card-making.

Clean hands and tools with simple soap and water while the adhesive is still wet. The 2-ounce bottle provides substantial working volume for ongoing projects while the fine tip maintains control throughout. When you need dimensional elements to stay put without wrestling with drying time or adhesive visibility, this delivers reliable performance.
