Is this tool able to apply hotfix crystals on lace?

I'm sorry Laura, but I do not know. The tool was used to affix crystals to a motorcycle helmet, of which, only a few came off due to the heat of the day.

No. I know it shows up on a search for leather repair, but it's only for cloth-type fabrics.

The original is the only type I have used so far, but I have successfully used it to make collage pieces that incorporated fabric and glass "gems" in the designs. Sorry I can't offer more help

No sewing machine will stitch through crystals and rhinestones . . .those will need to be added by hand or a special tool designed for that purpose. An experienced user will have no problem using this machine to stitch the garments.

I have only used it with the bare minerals foundation so I can not say if it does. Sorry

No,the lace goes right into the plastic body.I suppose one could wrap this into a keyring slipping the light thru the lace around a ring.Hope this helps.Nice little light by the way.

I have not tried "hot fix rhinestones" myself but understand that using a unit like this is preferable to a standard iron, because it reaches higher temperatures. I have not tried vinyl but would be careful, the vinyl may melt at higher temperatures. You may want to experiment, perhaps protecting the vinyl with a layer of cloth and at a lower temperature to start. For regular ironing of clothes it is a very nice steam press.

No I have re-used them numerous times. Use a pair of scissors or a small flat screwdriver and push the tab inwards that clicks when you first clicked them on then pull apart. It is a little stubborn but you won't break them as long as you push the tab onwards first. After you get it open re-trim the laces and snap back together.

Yes. Unfortunately, the paper work that I had gave information on who to contact. My suggestion is to go on line for replacements for Body Toolz Electric Manicure. Hope this helps.

No - haven't tried that. I used it on a spike high heel (shoe)that got damaged and had to glue it to make is stay securely.

No, it's not intended for that, because you heat it up to temp FIRST WITH THE CORRECT SIZE TIP, place the hotfix item where you want it attached, then press this over it using the correct size tip that you've already heated and basically melt the underside glue on. Having said that,when it's fully up to temp, you can place it on the hotfix bead and sometimes it will grab on enough for you to place somewher, but usually because of just excess edge glue, but it's also just as likely to fall off the tool and stick somewhere you don't want it.... And they are VERY hard to remove (which is good for its purpose), without damage. If the problem is an awkward surface you're trying to use it on, tell us what the application is and someone may have tips. Best of luck, but there's usually a resourceful person with an answer if they know what you need help with.

I have 3 of these tools and use them rather frequently to set rhinestones on very delicate tulle and illusion. I've had no problems so far, so here are some things to check: 1. Are you sure you checked the on/ off toggle on the end near the cord? The tip is extremely HOT when its on. 2. When you pick up the rhinestones with the setting tip you must wait about 30-40 seconds for the glue to melt. The melted glue will look shiny. I often use a long dressmaker pin (with the ball top) to slide thru the slit and ease the rhinestone into its proper spot on my fabric. 3. Is it possible that there is something wrong w/ the glue on your hot-fix rhinestones? 4. Have you tried plugging the tool into a different outlet? 5. If nothing works I guess you'll have to admit that the item is defective and you should get an exchange. It really is a great tool when it works. GOOD LUCK!

It can however the difference in materials most likely will show but nothing a couple coats of polish can't fix! Or bling. :)

You would need a buffing pad, which i have never seen for these tools, but they may exist.

The sapphire cone attachment would work on nail ridges, the actual soft buffer cone would probably just make them shiny.

I do not use it for that, but I am sure that ir would work. Put the dot of glue where you want the rhinestone, then place the bling on the glue. Reverse twizzers help. I am going to use it to place a large die cut on my Christmas cards.

Yes, but not well. I used it on a pair of costume boots and while it went on nicely, it cracked very quickly under use.
