what is e6000 glue used for
E6000 glue is used for strong, flexible, permanent bonding on a wide range of materials. It’s popular for crafts, jewelry making, sewing, cosplay, and general repairs because it sticks to things like metal, glass, wood, ceramic, leather, fabric, rubber, vinyl, and many plastics, and it stays flexible after curing.
Common uses
- Attaching rhinestones, beads, gems, and jewelry findings.
- Bonding fabric trim, appliqués, and other non-fabric embellishments to clothing or costumes.
- Repairing household items made of mixed materials, like metal-to-glass or wood-to-ceramic joins.
- DIY and craft projects that need a clear, durable bond.
Why people choose it
- It dries flexible, so the bond can move with the material instead of cracking.
- It is waterproof and generally resistant to washing and temperature changes once cured.
- It works on many different surfaces, which makes it useful for mixed-material projects.
What to avoid
- It is generally not recommended for Styrofoam, polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, or many paper products.
