FAQs
Can I use this for underwater repairs?
While the adhesive is waterproof once cured, it is not designed to cure while submerged in water.
Does this adhesive require clamps while it dries?
Thanks to its 'grab' technology, clamps are usually not needed, but you should hold pieces firmly in place for a few moments to ensure initial contact.
Is this product paintable?
Yes, once the adhesive is fully cured, it can be painted over to match your project's aesthetic.
What is the best way to clean up wet adhesive?
Wet adhesive can be cleaned with a dry cloth or mineral spirits. Once cured, it typically needs to be removed mechanically, such as by scraping or sanding.
Can I use this on metal to wood joints?
Yes, this adhesive is specifically formulated to bond dissimilar materials like metal and wood effectively.
Troubleshooting
Adhesive is difficult to dispense from the tube
Ensure the caulking gun is properly engaged and the nozzle tip is cut to a sufficient opening size.
Bond failed to hold on a specific surface
Verify that the surface was clean, dry, and free of debris. Ensure the material type is compatible, as this adhesive does not bond well to certain low-surface-energy plastics.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use this adhesive, you will need a standard caulking gun. Simply cut the nozzle tip to the desired bead size, load the tube, and apply to one side of the surface. Once applied, firmly press the objects together. For care, store in a cool, dry place. If you have leftover product, wipe the nozzle clean and seal it tightly to prevent the glue inside the tube from curing prematurely. Always wear gloves during application to keep hands clean, as the adhesive is designed for high-strength adhesion to skin as well.
