Love the Liquid - Hate the Bottle
This stuff really works. I needed a way to stop the edges of my Aida cloth from unraveling, especially when I have to cut it really close to the floss. Fray Check did the trick. I ended up applying it to the edges and onto the floss, let it dry, then cut the edges even closer. Because I’m a worry wart I applied another coat after the cutting.What impressed me was the fact that it didn’t cause the colors of my DMC floss to run. If you’ve ever used super glue or white craft glue you know that they cause the colors to bleed a bit.It darkened the cloth when wet but dried completely clear, as you can see in the pics I’ve included.The fabric remained flexible, there was just a slight stiffness that I think will relax with handling.They are not joking when they tell you to use it in a well ventilated area only. That smell is chemically, strong, and horrid. Thankfully it as it dried and two days later the smell is completely gone.The only negative is the bottle itself. I couldn’t get a pin through it so I cut the tip off. Due to the design, I had to cut low just to reach the liquid. Sadly, even cutting as close to the top as possible it still allows too much liquid to escape. Over two applications I covered a grand total of 17 inches of edge line. That used 0.05 ounces of liquid out of 0.75, yes I weighed it. (My undiagnosed OCD made me do it). That is 6.7% of the bottle used! For 17 inches! Waaaaay too much is coming out and I was really trying to control it. So it looks like I will be shopping for a fine tip bottle to transfer the Fray Check into ASAP.Overall I love it and will definitely buy again - when I need to refill the better bottle I plan on buying!

Easy to use
I embellished some new drapes with cotton lace. This product worked fine for the edges. Waiting to get them back from the dry cleaners. Hope it holds!

Holds Well
Bought it to keep a pair of my raw hem jeans from fluffing up in the wash. It was easy to use, a little goes a long way, and they're still holding after several washes. It is sticky, though, so make sure you're doing it on a surface that is easily cleaned, or you don't care about.

Works better than other glues
Keeps the tassel ends from fraying. Doesn’t leave a super stiff crunch feel

It Does What It's Supposed To Do
I have used it on a few seams of embroidery I have done, and I have yet to see threads pull away from it. So, it does what it’s supposed to do. I recommend it.

use this on and off - handy to have in sewing kit
this is great, as it stops things from fraying. I wouldn't recommend for simply putting on something like a moth hole tho, as it dries slightly dark and hard - same as if you applied super glue to fabric. I use it where seams are tight, but remain hidden to stop stitches pulling out, or where twist locks are inserted and the fabric has to be cut to accommodate.

Even the trickiest sewing problems can be solved.
Not as easy to use as I thought it would be, but did the job.
