Glue sticks
 

I have just bought a hot melt glue gun from a discount shop (£3.99).

Is there much difference in the quality of glue sticks? If so, what is best
for general work?

Some are better than others. Last batch I bought from CPC were both
decent quality and cheap for the quantity.

It will never work properly & burn your arms off. You need to spend at leat
£150 to get a proper glue gun from a specialist glue gun shop. Discount
shops sell shampoo, how can you expect the proper level of service?

You need gold plated ones at £15 each from a specialist glue gun stick shop.
Or Waitrose.

Pop into a local Aldi and have a look in their racks,I think they sold boxes
of 25 sticks at £2.99 two weeks ago?

Is there a significance to the glue-stick colour? I have accumulated
assorted white, black grey and clear(ish) ones over the years and lost the
packaging. I can't remember if the colour means it's for wood, plastic,
general-purpose etc, or it's just to match what you're gluing. Anyway it's
virtually impossible to remove the stick from my gun so I use whatever's in
there....
