Elmers Disappearing Purple School Glue Sticks, Washable, Jumbo Size, 40 Grams, 3 Count

I use this glue on my glass 3D printer bed and it is amazing. Since it easily washes off with cold water, it makes clean up quick and easy. I recommend this to anyone who is 3D printing on a glass bed with PLA or ABS as an easy way to get the filament to stick to the bed while making it easy to remove after the bed has cooled.

I use this to flatten my eyebrows when applying halloween makeup. I have sensitive skin and this worked well and didnt irritate my skin. Perfect.

Love the size!

I did not realize these glue sticks were so big. I was happy about that!

It’s a glue stick ... what can you really say?? I’ve only used one and it is so gigantic the other two will probably be dried up before I even get to it!! :). But my kids think the disappearing purple is pretty awesome.

When I got my first 3D printer my biggest problem was keeping my print jobs stuck to the printers hot bed. Nothing more frustrating than having a10 hr print job coming loose at 9 hrs and failing! I read reports that some people were using the purple Elmers glue sticks on their printers with success, so I tried it and was amazed how well it works! I smear the glue on from the handy retractable glue stick, then I take a 1/2 paint brush, dip it in plain water, and work the glue over the bed. Once the bed heats up, the glue turns from purple to clear and is ready for the print job. After the job is printed I remove my flexible magnetic bed cover and bend it to pop off the finished print. I swish the surface again with my wet paint brush and the surface is ready for the next job. I dont usually apply the glue again until Ive gone through three or four print jobs so it is extremely economical. If you are printing on a glass bed its a little more difficult to get the prints off. Youll need your spatula/putty knife and I sometimes drip some water around the print to help loosen it. It is a small price to pay for the peace of mind of your print job not coming loose!

Well, its glue. It sticks. Theres not much more to say. lol These glue sticks are my FAVORITE type. Would recommend.

The purple color is actually quite helpful when rinsing glue off of my 3d prints. As soon as water hits glue its bright purple again, so you know if you have removed all of it

I grew up on this glue for 2d projects and paper. Now that Im in the 3D world I love this stuff just as well! Its great for helping prints adhere to a print bed, for when you dont want to do any other adhesion methods, or if you are getting curling on corners.

Bought these for school.
