Adhesives (or Glues)

Adhesives: There are many adhesives available to the mosaicist. I prefer using glues that can handle most situations, so do not recommend indoor only adhesives (for example). Before you start using an adhesive, you should know where it can be used, where it can't, and what is the correct way to remove it.
