What adhesives do you all use?

I'm almost out of my supply of dot n rollers, and I guess I'm gonna move on to an ATG and a lot of liquid glue? I'm not sure. What does everyone else use?

Scotch Quick Dry Tacky Glue

Matte Accents
Pop Dots and glue dots every once in a blue moon.

Thats the joy of ATG- super cheap and super strong. Every other adhesive (non liquid) I have tried has eventually come unglued. And since the ATG tape is so strong you only have to use a little bit to get something down.

I used to use the red Duck tape runners that they sold at Walmart for super cheap. Until they quit selling them at Walmart for super cheap. I haven't found an adhesive that I LOVE since then...

I do have an ATG finally. I'm still not in love with it like everyone told me I would be. I don't hate it, but the thing is ginormous and bulky... and I really miss the days of the little tape runners!!

The last time I was at Walmart, I grabbed a couple of whatever tape runners they're selling now... I forget what brand they are. And they're okay. So currently I'm going back and forth between those and the ATG.

I bought this ATG which is a little smaller than the 3M brand (and a ton cheaper at under $30)

I've never had a problem with my Duck adhesive coming off. I've heard that from many people, though!!!

I have the lighter, cheaper pink ATG... I couldn't resist the pink! lol

I have the old red atg and I worship it. I actually like the big size, I don't lose it. I use glue dots in all shapes and sizes, I use pop dots/foam tabs like they're going out of style, and my ultimate for the heavy duty projects. Those are my essentials. I use too many adhesives!

I was at Archivers at a crop and forgot my ATG so I bit the bullet and bought a adhesive, I went cheap because I knew I wouldn't use it after I got home
I got this little "My Stik" LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS THING

I love my ATG gun. It is well loved.
For liquid adhesives I use both Helmar 450 and the Scotch glue Mara showed up above.
