Bearly Art glue and the other one

I like fast drying and very tacky glue. Used Aleene and Beacon 3-n-1 Advanced glue. I don't like spending huge amount of money on glue but is Bearly Art Glue fast drying and tacky?

I use Beacon 3-n-1 Advanced glue which is tacky and fast drying. Also, Aleene makes one similar. Tombow was like Elmer's glue and didn't work for my stuff.

Fischar

Fischar use to be into punches and craft cutting tools years ago but into sewing tools. I don't think their quality was any better than other companies even to this day and much prefer other brands.
