The UHU Stic is a widely recognized adhesive known for its unique screw-on cap. Unlike traditional friction-fit caps, this design creates a mechanical seal that significantly reduces air leakage, helping the glue stay fresh for up to two years. The 40g jumbo size provides a larger grip and more product for extensive projects, making it a reliable choice for scrapbooking and school displays.
The formula is made from 98% natural ingredients and is solvent-free. It uses a polymer matrix that ensures a smooth application without clumping, though the high moisture content can cause thin paper to buckle if applied too heavily. A light touch is often enough to create a secure bond. The glue is also cold-water soluble, so it can be easily washed out of clothing if accidents happen during a craft session.
While the jumbo size is excellent for large surface areas, it may be a bit cumbersome for very fine detail work. It also has a slightly slower drying time than some solvent-based alternatives, which gives you more time to reposition your items. The polypropylene housing is reinforced to withstand the pressure of regular use, and the screw-cap ensures that the glue remains soft and usable over time.
If you prefer a smaller stick for more precise tasks, the Avery 0.26 oz sticks offer a more compact alternative.
