FR_E_53 - PROPER USE OF GLUES AND ADHESIVES IN GLASS WORKING

NOT all glass working involves lead and solder to hold constructions together. Sometimes glue and adhesives are necessary. In this Lecture/Demo/Hands on class you will learn about the different glues and adhesives available in the marketplace. How do you get your mosaic to stay on its substrate material? How do you keep those jewelry findings permanently attached to the glass and how in the world do they assemble those glass crystal figurines, goblets and beveled items with no visible means of attachments? This class will lead you through the decision making process when selecting an adhesive for your product. Standard favorites, specialty adhesives and new products will be demonstrated and available to try. Glue samples and comparison chart will be just one of the hand-out provided..
