## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work well for fallen pages of books？**
A: It worked great on the spine of the book where the pages had pulled away from it.  It seems to be solid & sturdy. I was well pleased.

**Q: Is this a good glue for adhering cardboard to cardboard?**
A: I don't think it's as effective as regular paper glue . But it I'd glue nonetheless

**Q: Should there be a cap for the bottle? My 8 oz bottle arrived with out any sort of cap to protect the opening of the nozzle.**
A: The bottle i purchased from PH Neutral PVA came with a small white cap to cover the nozzle.   It should be protected from drying out.  Perhaps put plastic over the nozzle and secure with rubber band.

**Q: Is this vegan?**
A: I presume since it is not for internal consumption, the label on the bottle does not provide the ingredients.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for DIY notepads
*by J***O on January 6, 2026*

I wanted to try making my own notepads. I bought these because someone on TikTok used them to make notepads. Works amazing, notepads came out great, easy to rip the top sheet from the rest of the pad. I stacked 40-50 sheets and held them together with some binder clips. I used a brush to coat the top edge with the glue and did 3 thin coats, drying in between each coat. Dries clear. Would get again if I run out!!
