Safety Tips
Always Use Caution: Hot glue guns can reach high temperatures, so avoid direct contact with the nozzle and melted glue to prevent burns. Consider wearing gloves if you're concerned about hot glue on your skin.
Keep the Workspace Clean: Ensure your work area is free of clutter to avoid accidents. Always unplug the glue gun when not in use.
Use the Stand: When heating the glue gun, place it in its stand to prevent it from tipping over and causing spills.
Best Practices for Use
Choose the Right Glue Sticks: Select glue sticks based on your project needs. Low-temperature glue sticks are ideal for delicate materials like paper and fabric, while high-temperature sticks work better for stronger bonds on wood and metal.
Apply Sparingly: Start with a small amount of glue to avoid mess and ensure a strong bond. You can always add more if needed.
Hold Parts Together: After applying glue, hold the materials in place for a minute or two while the glue cools and sets.
Maintenance Tips
Clean the Nozzle: Regularly check the nozzle for old glue residue. You can clean it with aluminium foil or a toothpick when the gun is unplugged.
Store Properly: After use, allow the glue gun to cool down completely before storing it in a safe place.
