Troubleshooting

Sugru isn't sticking to the surface.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any oily residue. Roughening the surface with sandpaper can also help with adhesion.

Sugru is not curing properly.

Make sure the Sugru is within its expiration date. Ensure adequate contact with air and allow sufficient time for curing, up to 48 hours for load-bearing applications.

Sugru is too difficult to mold.

Warm the Sugru slightly by rolling it in your hands for a longer period. This will soften it and make it easier to work with.

Unable to remove Sugru from a surface.

Use a knife or scalpel to carefully cut away the Sugru. For porous surfaces, removal might not be possible without damaging the material.
