Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before starting your repair, ensure the shoe surface is clean, dry, and free of old adhesive residue. Apply the glue sparingly; a little goes a long way. Use masking tape to hold the repaired area in place if it is difficult to clamp. Store the tube in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly secured to prevent the adhesive from drying out inside the nozzle. If the nozzle becomes clogged, you can gently wipe it with an appropriate solvent or clip the tip slightly. Always work in a well-ventilated room to allow for safe application.
