Patent number: 8360113Abstract: A multi-colored swirled glitter glue product packaged and sold in a transparent package is disclosed. When dispensed from the packaging and onto the adherent, the multi-colored glitter glue is dispersed with generally equal parts of each color. Each color is formulated with glitter particles which results in a colorful display of glitter enhanced glue product. The swirled nature of the composition is easily viewed through clear pliable plastic bottling, which generates more appeal and interest than the prior art of plain glue lacking either color or glitter properties.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2008Date of Patent: January 29, 2013Assignee: Advantus, Corp.Inventor: Tracia Williams
