They found that unlike white and yellow glue, the Testors non-toxic cement didn't cause wrinkles in paper media.



There are several brands of non-wrinkling liquid glues (as opposed to sticks or spray) for paper work now available in the glue section of craft stores. The containers do not detail the ingredients, but warn of flammability.

I've exhausted the normal uses for these adhesives; I'd love to know a good alternative use other than the thrash can!
