Paste whole sheet or perimeter?** A: This will work. It is bookbinders glue. You can paste whole page or perimeter, try both and if it buckles in the middle pasting whole page, try perimeter. I think pasting whole page would be my first choice. **Q: I know it will clean up with water while its still wet. But after it dries is it water proof or water soluble still?** A: No it's pretty much permanent after it dries. Youight be able to get it to a gooey consistensy if you soaked the book or paper it is on in water **Q: Will this product work to reinforce Bible that is coming apart?** A: This glue is used for bookmaking, therefore it should work as well or better than anything else. The glue will work, but I suggest you look online for exactly the technique needed to do the type of repair your Bible requires. **Q: Will this glue yellow over time? I want to use it to stiffen fabric for millinery and I don't want my pieces to end up yellow after a few years.** A: In my experience with the product it does not yellow. I use on book binding and over a period of 9 months if it is visible it is white. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Para restaurar lienzos *by C***A on 7 September 2025* Perfecto para restaurar cuadros de lienzo rotos. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bueno *by C***N on 19 June 2024* Bien ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sehr schön *by A***E on 4 December 2025* Das Produkt ist von sehr guter Qualität.
