Update on Covered Tin Cans

Yesterday I walked by my tin cans and discovered they were all peeling at the seam. So if you decide to try them on your own just add a very thin line of Elmer's glue at the seam (have to hold it together for a few seconds for it to bond). That way it won't peel up. Problem: Solved! Also I sprayed both the paper and the can surface with mounting adhesive. The instructions on the can said this would produce a "permanant" bond. Not so much. So hopefully this helps.

  1. I haven't had that problem, so I wonder what the difference it on yours and mine. I used the spray adhesive like you suggested. I'll have to keep an eye on mine, but so far so good.
