I use a Lidl (Parkside) glue gun and only the fact that the sticks are slightly longer than the standard version of Lidl could interfere because it may no longer be the case in the cliffs sticks. But I can also put loose and if longer I have to be changed less frequently ... The adhesive itself is equally good and is, I believe even slightly faster fixed. I am pleased and for the price I will always buy here this sticks!
