I would say medium sticky. It's nowhere near like the German-made glues. I think it's on par with normal revolution glue, maybe even less sticky than the high-viscosity revolution.

Or one can buy the Sueke No 2 glue which is cheap and amazing, but still the DHS No15 is my 2nd favorite.

STIGA did succeeded in producing "foamed glue". Ideal glue consistence every one looking for. Yes, the price is somewhat ripping.

Zwill, a question for you, how do you deal with putting multiple layers of glue on the blade? When I tried it with the no15, the previous layer got absolutely destroyed...
There really isn't much trick to it. Just let the first layer dry completely, maybe even leave it for 40 minutes to dry, then do the same thing you did with the first layer.
The only thing one needs to be careful with DHS No 15 is that it dries fast so you need to do the spreading quickly and with the least possible brushes. This is why I like Sueke No2 a bit more as it doesn't dry that quickly.

That is Nittaku Finezip rebranded as Stiga. I doubt Stiga has made any glue since the speed glue ban, and certainly it wasn't the Attach glue.
That being said since the Finezip is a good glue the Stiga is also a good glue. But it can spoil in the tube quickly so maybe don't buy a lot if you don't use a lot of it.
The Stiga version is usually cheaper than the Nittaku Finezip and more available in general. So good buy.
