Thread: Glue for Fan Veils

What's the best type of glue to use in making/repairing fan veils??

Thanks

I need to know as well, mine are damaged from sitting too close to an oil diffuser. They smell awesome but the silk has come off the staves

Someone Please!! Help us!!

I use Elmer's glue and water, I estimate 2-to-1 ratio to insure a thin glue layer. A thick glue layer can cause friction and pick the silk when opening and closing the fans.

Aleene's has a thinner formulation of their craft glue. I think it used to be called "Thin Tacky Glue," but it looks like they've rebranded it "Easy Flow Tacky Glue." If regular craft glue doesn't hold, I would move up to something like E-6000, but use a popsicle stick or an old plastic ID card to spread the glue as thinly as possible.

Thanks
