Otherwise, the surfaces to be bonded often cannot withstand high mechanical stress.Craft glue does not always dry clear. Most craft glues are based on a variant of PVA glue (also called white glue). Which means, that they are initially white but they will dry clear. Mod Podge, for example, is a white PVA-based glue that displays that exact behavior. But not every craft glue will dry clear.

If you’re looking to seal or repair glass that is going to be in extreme heat, then it is important to look for adhesives that have a high glass transition temperature or are heat resistantto ensure that the repair is maintained. This could be useful when sealing windows on cars, oven covers, fireplace panels, etc. Water Resistance Epoxy adhesives are also very resistant to the elements, but what makes this formula stand out from others is its extreme strength and structural form. That is why it is one of the best glues for heavy glass panes, large glass fixtures, or glass that may be under a lot of stress. Users must mix a resin and a hardener together to actually form the adhesive, so an epoxy adhesive does take longer to prepare.
