The way of using glue dots based on the packing way. We have two types of packing, one is packed with applicators. The other is bulk packed. For those good packed with applicator, you just need to follow the using instruction of using on the back of the packing. You can press the applicator or slide it on the paper where you would need dots to adhere to; For those packing without applicator, some are refills of the applicator so the using way is same as previous one; others are for DIY use, you can easy scrape one dots from sheets and attach it to where you would like.
