I was going to invest in a nail gun ( let the children use wood glue during school and I nail them on after school).. but seeing the clear caulk used here may just be a better option and an answer to my prayers..<br />Q.. Did it bond the bottle tops long term??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501308597522720818.post-18190616047467660532017-11-09T15:40:40.146-06:002017-11-09T15:40:40.146-06:00I did a pretty good job!

Have also used it on canvas (floorcloth hems) and lots of other projects. Dries clear, cleans up with water, non-toxic, and no odor (well,no more than regular school glue). I get it on-line but it is also at Ace Hardware.<br /><br />http://www.weldbond.com/<br /><br />Good luck on your project.<br /><br />Sharon<br />(former art docent and handy with her craft tools)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501308597522720818.post-53641716505787861392011-09-21T07:46:26.309-05:002011-09-21T07:46:26.309-05:00I've done some small bottle cap projects, just...I've done some small bottle cap projects, just using hot glue but have always wanted to do something on a large scale like this - I think I will be saving our family bottle caps for a few more years, decades, centuries... :)Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418200517338216765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501308597522720818.post-29662689816283102472011-09-21T07:03:05.231-05:002011-09-21T07:03:05.231-05:00Best of luck to you and your students in your mura...Best of luck to you and your students in your mural creation.
