Blu-Tack Reusable Adhesive 75g

I am a jeweler by hobby and this was recommended as a good gemstone-picker-upper material. I just roll a chunk of it up into a small, long cone and it's just tacky enough to pick up a gemstone but no to sticky that it holds on to it when I'm in the middle of creating a seat for a stone in metal. This pack will probably last me years to come for my particular use so it's a great value for me needs. Doesn't seem to leave any residue on the stones as well so that's less cleaning for me to do down the line.

Based on the usefulness of this product to me, I find it well worth the price. Primarily, I use it to temporarily, yet securely, hold 25mm and larger gaming and display miniatures to a small, sturdy glass jar (wife's old moisturizer) I use as a temporary model holder. I pull off a hunk, roll it up into about a 1 1/2 inch ball, smush that down securely onto the top of the jar, then push the base of the miniature down firmly onto the blu-tack, and it will stay there until I want to remove it. The jar is just about the perfect size to fit comfortably in the palm of my hand, light enough to manipulate in any direction with my fingers, yet heavy enough that I can set it down safely any time I want, to clean my brush, change paints, add on small pieces with tweezers and super glue, etc. This enables me to customize and paint the miniature much more quickly and easily than I did back when, holding it in my fingers by the base only. Speaking of bases, it also makes finishing the base itself much easier, to terraform and paint both, since my fingers aren't in the way. Another big plus? I'm not dropping anything or knocking it over while any material, glue, or paint's still wet either, which usually is disastrous. Afterwards, I just pull off the finished mini (it comes right off, cleanly and easily), pull the smushed blob off the jar, put the 'tack back with the unused portion, and store all of it in its own airtight jar (NOT provided) until needed again. It'll stay tacky and useful (and re-useful) for ages this way. Also, I use it to hold miniature and other model parts together to check the fit before applying glue to anything. If the fit is a little off, I can pull the parts apart and re-assemble them as many times as necessary, while taking care of repairs and adjustments (like sanding, slicing, adding pins or other reinforcement, etc.) to one or both parts, before ever applying glue to anything. This prevents lots of potentially serious problems and considerable stress and hassle along the way, always a good thing. Finally, since it goes on and pulls off with no trouble or leaving behind any nasty residue, it also is a great material to use as a paint mask, especially for airbrushing and spray painting. Getting paint on it will reduce effectiveness over time (eventually to uselessness), but still it will last a long time, it can be reshaped and reused over and over (paint and all), and there's plenty of it for these purposes. I always have used it as a temporary adhesive, come to think of it, and doubt very much whether it would offer good long-term results anywhere permanently. Recently, I discovered another, less expensive, Amazon best selling version of this (there are similar products made by several other manufacturers available here on Amazon) for just under three bucks per package, and it seems to work fine as well. On the other hand, Blu-Tack is a well-researched, well-known product that's been around for a good long time, and it's not really very expensive itself. Sometimes, you really do get what you pay for, but how you choose to spend your own hard earned cash is your decision entirely, so go with what works best for you. I like this.

Blu tack is good but I like the wax pencils better. Easy to manage. Thank you

Probably be great for hanging paper posters on the wall. But I did not care for it for use in diamond painting. It is not nearly as good as glue dots for that purpose.

Works like the old school stuff that I am used too. Not major smells, easy to remove without leaving residue and holds up the posters and cards as I intended.

I use the Blu Tack for diamond art. It stick to the diamond beads better than the glue clay(wax). Easy to use. Very affordable and will last a long time. With Blu Tack you fill the pen less and it stay on the pen longer. I can complete art faster with Blu Tack. The glue clay (wax) take longer. Leaves no residue.
