If you want the real deal get gum tragacanth or gum arabic its what the factories use. Tasteless, odorless, and clear. You can probably find gum arabic at any local crafts store. If not you can get it here... https://www.leafonly.com/other-tobac...lue-gum-arabic

Thanks in advance.

I got it off a CC site so cant relly link it here. It works well, was firly inexpensive and has a nice little "nail polish" brush. Just gently peel the wrapper back and apply sparingly.

Put me in the Chapstick camp. Seems to work well for me so far. YMMV

I used honey to fix my Warped Oso. It worked great, smoked perfect. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah, I do as well. Always have some on hand but fortunately, rarely have a time when I need to use it.

If it's in the portion of the stick that won't get smoked, I.e. near the cap, I've successfully used scotch tape! Failing that, a postage stamp.

Found my bottle stash.
Just glue: $5.00 should cover postage, packaging, materials.
Glue & Leaf Band Aids $7.50 should cover postage, packaging, materials. There would be both medium brown and maduro band aids.
There won't be any label on bottle, no boxes, or insert.
Just send PM
