can you use on glued in gems

I bought it in a combo pack with an ultrasonic cleaner and it said no on glue and no composite or porous gemstones.

I'm sure you can as long as you put a small amount on the bottom. There are swarovski rhinestones that are made for fabric application. You should search for "hotfix rhinestones". To my understanding they come with a heat activated adhesive on the flat back portion of the stone. Hopefully this helps you.

I would not use this on all gems. The cleaner is designed for silver flatware and housewares, not jewelry. It could severely damage opals, turquoise and similar soft stones, coated crystals, and pearls. If you need to clean silver with gemstones, use a cleaner designed for jewelry.

Hello,Yes, you should be able to use these glue sticks with that Glue gun. Otherwise you can do a smaller pack under ASIN# B000I1QA4G to test them out. Thanks

I haven't tried it for that purpose but I was told to buy it to add jewels to my nails and it sucks for that it never seemed to dry, the gems moved for hours after they were put on.

This worked for me on sapphire crystal and diamonds, but I am not sure it would work for other gems.

You can go to your local Michael's or AC Moore or even Walmart to purchase e6000 glue or Gemtac. If you are going to add rhinestones to clothing...there is a fabric glue that is right next to the e6000.

Definitely. The jewels come with a fairly strong natural adhesive. (Think poster tape)

I used it to repair a broken small wooden sculpture and it worked perfect for that. I haven't tried it for jewelry making, but imagine it should work.

definitely! I make photo jewelry and use only this glue to attach my glass-covered photo to the pendant.

Yes they can be glued. Best to use craft glue, 3000, rubber cement, etcetera. Only problem is you can't soak them. They should receive a good soaking 2-3 times a week.

When it cures Bob it's almost like glass so trim it while it's soft. The good news is you have plenty of time to do that.Mineral spirits will have a negative effect on the integrity of the glue so use caution.

This can only be used with HOT FIX rhinestones. HOT FIX rhinestones are rhinestones that already comes with dried glue at the back. This gun allows you to press on the rhinestone and melt the glue at the back, thereby "sticking" the rhinestone to the surface of the fabric, or whatever you are intending to embellish. No glue needed. Its like a precision IRON for rhinestones that ALREADY come with glue.

If you are putting them on your nails you can just put them directly onto slightly wet nail polish or put a drop of clear polish on the nail and then put a stone. If you are planning on putting them on something else you can use a small drop of glue, they don't have their own adhesive, since I believe they are mostly used for nail art. Hope this helps answer your question. :-)

Hi Debbie, I am not quite sure actually. I was trying to glue stainless steel to stainless steel and it didn't really work. It might work with a gemstone... I'm sorry I can't be of more help to you. Do you happen to know a metallurgist? ;) Stainless steel is a very "particular" metal... a pro might know all the kinks...
