FAQs
Is this glue suitable for use on children's toys?
Yes, it is safe to use for general repairs on plastic toys, provided the glue is allowed to cure fully before the toy is handled by a child.
Can I use this glue for underwater repairs?
No, while the adhesive is waterproof once cured, it must be applied to dry surfaces and allowed to set before being exposed to water.
Will this glue bond rubber or silicone?
It is designed for rigid materials like wood, metal, and hard plastics; it may not provide a permanent bond on flexible rubber or silicone.
How long does the glue take to reach full strength?
While the glue sets quickly, it is recommended to leave the bond undisturbed for at least 24 hours to achieve maximum strength.
Can I paint over the glue once it has dried?
Yes, once fully cured, the adhesive can generally be painted over, but you should test a small patch first if using specialized finishes.
Troubleshooting
Glue nozzle is clogged after storage
Use a small needle or pin to clear the dried adhesive from the tip of the nozzle.
Bond is not holding
Ensure both surfaces were completely clean and dry. If the surface was greasy or dusty, clean with an appropriate solvent first.
Glue is taking too long to set
Hold the surfaces together firmly for at least 30-60 seconds to ensure the adhesive contacts both materials effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before using the adhesive, ensure that the surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free from debris. Apply a small amount of the gel to one surface and press firmly for several seconds to initiate the bond. Compatibility includes most plastics, wood, metal, and glass. For storage, always replace the cap tightly after each use to prevent the glue from curing inside the nozzle. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the product's shelf life.
