RoseArt Jigsaw Puzzle Glue with Applicator - Saves, Laminates and Preserves Finished Jigsaw Puzzles - Easy to Apply, Dries Quick, Clear & Bright

Worked great. Felt inclined to counter some of the 1-star reviews. It seems those buyers just got a defective bottle. Not an overall issue of the product itself. When working as intended, perfect product. One jar covered my 19" x 27" puzzle. First puzzle gluing as well. If I do it again, I will buy this item.

Our second bottle of this stuff. It works great and for the money, you cannot beat it. We've glued about 5-6 puzzles (1000 - 1500 ct) on one bottle so it goes a long way! It's easy to use and really seems to hold puzzle pieces in place.

I really works great I would buy it again. It kept my wooden puzzle together and so clear.

Easy to use and functions as it should. Good size for 2 puzzles and seems durable.

I used this to seal a 1000-piece puzzle I actually liked enough to frame (rare), and it worked exactly the way I needed it to. The glue goes on white but dries clear, and the finish is just glossy enough to make the colors pop without looking tacky or plasticky.The built-in applicator is surprisingly decent—it’s basically a sponge tip that spreads the glue evenly without streaking or soaking the pieces. I wasn’t expecting much from a pool of glue, but honestly? It delivered and was super easy to apply and left the puzzle strong and in one piece.One bottle was enough for three 1000-piece puzzles, edge to edge, with a little leftover... not bad for five bucks! Also: no weird smell, no warping, no regret.If you’re the kind of person on a puzzle bender and wants to seal your trophy at the end, this glue gets it done and ready FAST for a frame or your puzzle portfolio binder (which I also highly recommend looking into if you're a puzzle fiend!!)

I cannot rave enough about this glue... who knew one could be so excited about GLUE! I used this for 4 different wooden puzzles (the ones with the wonky different shaped pieces). They came out fantastic. I have never glued a puzzle before and this was extremely easy. Once dried, the colors of the puzzle just popped, and became much more vibrant than I thought they could be. Again, I have not done this before, and did not expect a brighter puzzle.Some tips for gluing a wooden puzzle:-I laid out Gladd press and seal down on my counter and taped that with clear packing tape so the edges did not come up.-Then slid the puzzle on to the counter, and since these are so finicky, did some quick reassembly.-I took a few strips of cardboard, and taped those down on 3 sides of the puzzle, this was to shore it up and keep the pieces as snug as possible.-Then pour on the glue. These puzzles pieces do not lock tight; so when spreading out the glue, be sure to lay the tool provided at an angle as your spreading it out, almost to the point where the side of your hand is touching the puzzle. This will keep the pieces from lifting up and causing any issues.- I glued only the front of the puzzle, not the back.-Once 100% dry, it cannot be tacky at all, not even a little bit. If you're wondering to yourself, "self, is this still tacky, its hard to tell". Then that means it is and leave it alone for a few more hours. I dried mine for about 12-ish hours.- With the wooden puzzle, the tended to warp a bit as they dry (do not fear, this is easily fixed). This was not an issue at all. I flipped them face down and placed some heavy bowls on top for another few hours. I even used a blow dryer on the back, to warm it up a bit, then placed heavy books to flatten it out.- once every thing was dry and as flat as possible, I used hot glue on the back, put them on black poster board, and framed them.Pros: Easy to work with, washable, super easy clean up, spreads evenly with the tool provided, turns even the most colorful puzzle brighter and added depth. (I know... sounds crazy but it did)Cons: I really have zero! As I said, this was the first time I have used puzzle glue and will never use another brand after this.

My mother never raised a smart child. When you use this product, UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE ACCOMPLISHING!! The glue works by penetrating the puzzle pieces and glueing them together. I had my puzzle on an old table. After I realized I glued my puzzle to the table, I worked on getting it off the table. Unnecessary step but had to be done. The strength will hold the puzzle together but will allow you to do clean up. It leaves no "brushmarks" so you have a beautiful picture. Good product.

Our kids have these puzzles from the space center in Houston, TX. I wanted to seal them so they could save and display them. I was unsure upon application, but once I came back to see how the glue dried down I was very happy. It’s nice and clear, not sticky, easy to use, and didn’t make everything soggy. The puzzle is nice and bright and the colors show clearly. The glue dried down fast for the amount I applied. I highly recommend this product if you enjoy saving your finished puzzles.
