I couldn't get the adhesive off even with alcohol. This isn't nealy as strong. Next time I'll use 505.
Yeah, Elmers is NOT a temporary spray adhesive, it is permanent. It isn't for spray basting fabrics.... it is an actual craft glue and will gum your needle up badly :(
This is Elmer's Craft Adhesive. It says it can be used for either permanent or temporary adhesive. At this point it's definitely not permanent. It depends on how quickly you adhere something to it that makes it permanent. That said I definetly won't be using it again! It does gum up the needle and the thread keeps breaking even though I'm wiping the needle with an alcohol wipe but I think that's partly because I'm using embroidery thead on the top. I think I'll try using regular thread for the rest. Now off to find variegated pink thread. GRRRR!
