Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] TIP: glue for marionette knots


I don't know if it's re soluble, but the stuff is near  
indestructible! I tried to remove an old felt wig from a figure and  
had to shave it off with a razorblade. When I string a figure, I  
usually "Rough" it out first and move on to the next so the glue gets  
a chance to dry. The thing I like about SOBO is that it's super tacky  
when wet, dries clear and has virtually no shine which is great for  
string. It's something that I have always used and never looked  
around for an alternative.

I'll give the Fray Away a try if I can find it.
