    UK alternative to AlbaChem Eco Mist Spray Adhesive

    Does anyone know of a UK alternative to AlbaChem Eco Mist Spray Adhesive? I can't find that product on any of the suppliers I've checked.

    Hi Martin, I use 3M 75 repositionable adhesive spray, seems to work fine for me. This looks like a new can design from what I have, but sure it's the same stuff.

    This isn't where I got mine from, just an example..have a search around and you'll more than likely get it cheaper

    Thanks for the reply. I'll check out the 3M 75 spray shortly. I want it mainly to use on mousepads as some of my designs have a lot of straight edges that I need to line up very carefully. Taping the paper down is fine for most other designs, but for my straight edge ones it takes a very careful hand to not budge the paper at all as you're putting it into the press! Do you need a lot of spray to keep the sublimation paper in place? I assume there is no sticky residue once the pressing has completed?

    I'm sure the 75 repositionable spray will be fine. I mainly use it for sew on patches / badges and works a treat, no there is no residue left behind on the item you press. It doesn't need much adhesive spray to hold it in place, I guess it's just trial and error to start with. Always make sure too when you've finished using the spray to turn the can upside down and spray it to clear the nozzle, or you'll find next time you want to use it the nozzle will be blocked ;)
