Does epoxy resin react badly with Elmer's glue?

Question

I was thinking of making a pendant from a few different materials. I was thinking, to make sure they do not float to the surface, that I try and glue them down. Would epoxy resin make elmers glue become "wet" and white again?

I will be pouring the resin over the objects in a container that they will stay in. I'm not just doing a mold with the Elmers on the outside.

Answer 1

yep it might be a bit messy too. there is a particular kind of cement glue that it made for making jewlery. try Michaels they would have it.

Answer 2

No, epoxy resin won't make dried white glues "wet" again White glues are basically a waterproof acrylic-vinyl once they're *dry* --as long as they're the permanent type of white glue, not the "washable" type.

In fact, white glue is often used to hold items down before pouring resin over , and it's also used to coat porous items (like paper etc.) to keep the resin from making the porous item turn translucent.

You can read a bit more about resins and coating with white glue, etc., on this page if you're interested:

Answer 3

If its acrylic then the epoxy reason loopy glue has difficulty except its farily porus plastic. i could individually use JB weld got here upon at maximum hardware shops. JB extremely strengthens and hardens like a real weld! you're able to smash whats glued earlier you smash the glue...
