Paint can adhesive?

[juliee28]

What kind of adhesives are you putting on the paper with and how do you cut out around the handles for a smooth professional look?thanks Julie

I used Double sided Permanant tape and I used a Circle punch to punch around the handles. I just made a can for my cousin today - i love the way it turned out. Have fun!

I found that E-6000 worked best.

Permanent Xyron adhesive doesn't budge!

I used carpet tape.

Thanks Whitney!! Someone suggested the Xyron on another thread, but I'm thrilled to know that it works. We are making 12 paint cans to use as centerpieces for teen Christmas party, so thanks for the hints!!

I used a spray adhesive with reinforcing it Terifically tacky tape on the edges. It is too expensive to use it all over!

Can you get this at HD or Lowes or do you have to buy it somewhere special?

I haven't used it myself, but I read on a paint can I saw in the gallery that she used rubber cement. You put it on the back of the CS, then on the paint can and wait for it to dry then attach it. It gets tacky & sticks very well. Rubber cement would probably be your cheapest way since you are making so many. It is like $1.99 a jar at Target. Good luck!!!
