I had concerns with both (not a bout holding, but being able to stitch thru them with a machine), I have had trouble when hand stitching and the glue would get on the needle and gum it up. So far with the sewing machine I have not had that problem, really works great. I can't tell that much difference in the brands.
Now can life is a nother concern, if it dries out too fast, it isn't worth having.
Good post, keep us up on what you get in can life.
