Hi-tack no-sew fabric glue is a specialised adhesive designed for fabric projects that don't require stitching. Here are the key details:
- It's a strong, permanent adhesive specifically formulated for bonding fabrics together
- Creates a flexible bond that remains pliable after drying, allowing fabric to maintain its natural drape
- Typically machine washable once fully cured (usually 24-48 hours)
- Works on most fabric types including cotton, denim, felt, leather, canvas, and many synthetics
- Water-resistant when dry
- Common uses include:
- Hemming pants, skirts, or curtains without sewing
- Attaching appliqués or embellishments
- Making quick repairs to torn fabric
- Crafting fabric projects without access to a sewing machine
- Creating no-sew halloween costumes or clothing alterations
The glue comes in tubes with precision applicator tips for controlled application. A little typically goes a long way. While it's called "permanent," the bond may eventually weaken after multiple washes, especially on heavily used items.
Unlike standard craft glue, hi-tack no-sew fabric glue is specifically formulated to remain flexible and withstand washing, making it more appropriate for wearable items and home textiles.
