Re: Paste Vs. Gluestick

More | Report Post

I use glue with butter tubs that have holes punched in the top
to put inexpensive nylon brushes in. I water down the glue a
little and kids pull the glue with the brush. Glue bottles are
a pain to refill and they can never close them correctly. I
have 2 tubs a table of 4-6 kids and there are 4-6 brushes at
the table to use. If I need to refill,it's only one to 2 tubs
and not many bottles to take apart and fill back up.
