I'm looking forward to my order arriving!! I can think of a million uses for this.

I assume it removes with simple soap and water? For instance, if I use my left fingers to apply it to my right palm, the left fingers are going to be undesirably sticky until I remove it from them. Or is it applied with an included applicator brush?

Or could I perhaps use a cotton swab to apply?



I love this stuff... I have ordered some empty lip gloss containers to fill. Going to test how well it works to apply Octopalm. Not sure how well
a Q-tip would work due to the loose fibers. Better luck with something ore stiff yet semi small in nature say a cheese stick from a cheese and crackers pack perhaps. Even if the lip gloss tube doesn't work like a applicator, it will still be a great pocket carry for walk around Ready Set Go scenarios. I did the same with a small glass bottle with brush and rubber cement. nice, small, portable....

Hi,there ... Can you let me know where you are ordering the empty Lip Gloss containers? I have another use for such things and did not know you could order them empty. Cheers

How many magicians does it take to change a lightbulb? Regardless, for magicians darkness is a time for d'lite.

Does octopalm work with classic palming a coin and if I use it for that will it be easy to release the coin from classic palm position?

The classic palm is normally done without Octopalm so then you would have to experiment with the size of the coin and how much Octopalm applied. The bigger the coin the easier it will be to push the coin off.

Anyone have any tips for when the octopalm dries out in the container? I have some that I have had for a while and haven’t used. I opened it up to work with it as it is dried hard in the container.

For activating a dried out sharpie one would use rubbing alcohol. I don’t have it but I would try putting. 3-5 small droplets in and let it sit for a little to test to see if you can save it.

Purchased mine in 2015 and kept in a zip lock bag, opened it today and there was some evaporation and some tiny crumbs but still works fine.
The video is worth the price by itself. Eight familiar routines with an Octopalm twist.

Just heard about this product. I have been using Eileen's tacky glue called: Tack It Over and Over. It's usually out of stock in craft stores, but you can find it, or order online. It is extremely strong and long lasting, invisible when dry. I found that it remains sticky until you remove it - doesn't seem to wear out. Only issue is that you can't remove it while in performance - it takes soap and water to get it off.

I'll have to see how it compares with Octopalm.

Holy smoke, Octopalm works well. I used it to stick vanish a magnetic English Penny/US Half Dollar combo coin after turning two coins into one. I left the new coin with octopalm on it. Must have been way too much - I cannot pull the half coin apart, the magnet with some octopalm smeared in the crack is too much. So new question - does anyone know what can break down octopalm? I will use to split this coin again.

Thanks!

Hand sanitizer did it!
