You will also find special tips for working with glue rollers. Plus, you can find helpful tricks: Stop licking envelopes or create your own sticky notes.

REMOVING GLUE FROM CLOTHING

Even though most of our glues are non-liquid, a sleeve may get glued sometimes. Pre-soak the clothing in cold water for about 10 minutes. Follow the washing instructions on the garment label and don't dry clean.

KEEP YOUR GLUE IN GOOD CONDITION

For long-lasting results place the cap on the glue stick when you don"t need it for more than two minutes. This will prevent it from drying out. All glues like it warm and cozy. So keep them from freezing.

SAFE FOR KIDS

Pritt Stick is certified to comply with stringent EU child safety legislation. It is solvent-free and PVC-free.

Some of our products are made of small parts (e.g. Glitzy Bitz) and are therefore not suitable for very small children.

STOP LICKING ENVELOPES

Instead of licking an envelope, secure it with a swush of glue. Pritt Glue Stick or Glue Roller are perfect for this - especially when you have to glue a lot of envelopes in a row and run out of breath.

SPECIAL TIPS FOR GLUE ROLLERS

Always place the paper you want to glue on a flat, solid surface. Hold the applicator at a slight angle over the area to be glued. Apply firm pressure to the dispenser tip and glide the applicator in a straight line across the paper. For a clean break, stop applying glue, then lift the dispenser at a slight angle.

Circular or wavy applications may cause the film to come off the guides and possibly tear.

FLATTEN THE LOOPS

In case a loop of tape appears in your Pritt Glue Roller, just use it three or more times on a piece of paper. This will make the loop disappear. The latest models of the Pritt Glue Rollers feature a button which makes flattening loops even easier.

KNOW THE COLORS

Pritt Refill Roller permanent and non-permanent

We use colors to distinguish permanent and non-permanent gluing products. Permanent gluing products are indicated by an overall red, while non-permanent products feature a bright yellow part. That way, it's easy to distinguish them on your desk.

CREATE YOUR OWN STICKY NOTES

Everybody uses those boring yellow sticky notes to inform family members when to ba back or who called. Show your creativity and use paper and Pritt Glue Rollers to make your own sticky notes in various sizes, colors and shapes.

FUN FACT
