UHU Product Review

I received a sample of UHU adhesive in the mail a few weeks ago and have finally had a chance to see if I likey.   And, I do.  This is definitely a worthy adhesive!  I think I can say this with some confidence as I have used a majority of the adhesives on the market for stamping and scrapbooking over the years.  My current adhesive of choice has been the Tombow Mono Adhesive. 

What I like better about UHU:  I like the feel of the dispenser.  It's a bit larger than the Tombow dispenser--for some reason, I get mixed up with my Tombow and actually have to look at it to make sure I am holding it right.  I know, not a big deal.  BUT, the point I am making is that the UHU dispenser fits in my hand correctly and innately so I never have to see if I am holding it right.  I've also not experienced the clogging up of adhesive referred to as "glue boogers."  Again, not a huge deal, but you asked {{I know, not really, but humor me...}}

I like that even the permanent is easily removable after making first contact with my project--'cuz sometimes, I change my mind...but I'm not sure how the "stickability" holds up over time--what's more embarassing than having something you've lovingly created fall apart in the receivers hands?  I've put a project in the steamy bathroom as a trial for this issue and it held up fine....do with that what you will :)

The one downside I see is that it is a bit more pricey than what I am currently using and since I go through adhesive like water...that is a concern for me---however, as someone wise has stated:  what is more embarassing than having something you've lovingly created fall apart in the receivers hands???

Quality breeds quality.  You can learn more about UHU by visiting Maria Filosa's UHU project blog.  I'm interested in your experiences with UHU so, please leave me a comment.

I've tried to go to Maria's blog, but the link isn't working for me. I'd be interested in trying a sample, can you email me her info?

I did not have as a good an experience with it. I reviewed it in my blog--http://blog.360.yahoo.com/rubyslippers74
