FAQs

How long does it take for the glue to fully cure?

The initial bond sets in 15-30 seconds, but the glue requires 24 hours for a full, maximum strength cure.

Can I use this on all types of plastic?

It works on many plastics, but it is not recommended for polyethylene (PE), PTFE (Teflon), or silicone rubber. Always test on an inconspicuous area if unsure.

Is this glue waterproof?

Yes, the bond is resistant to moisture and is dishwasher-safe once fully cured.

How do I clean up excess glue?

Wipe away any excess glue with a cloth or paper towel immediately after application, before it cures. For cured glue, gentle abrasion might be necessary, or soaking in warm, soapy water for skin contact.

What makes the 'Liquid Control' applicator better?

The precision applicator allows for pinpoint accuracy, delivering the glue exactly where needed, reducing mess and ensuring a cleaner finish. The self-piercing nozzle also helps prevent clogging.

Can this glue withstand extreme temperatures?

It is resistant to freezing temperatures and moderate moisture, but it is not designed for applications involving prolonged exposure to very high heat.

How should I store the super glue?

Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to maintain its efficacy and prevent clogging.

Troubleshooting

Glue is not dispensing

Ensure the nozzle is not clogged. If clogged, carefully try to clear it with a pin. Ensure the cap is fully removed.

Bond is weak or fails

Ensure surfaces were clean, dry, and properly aligned. Reapply glue, ensuring adequate contact and holding time. Check if materials are compatible.

Accidental bonding of fingers or surfaces

For skin, soak the bonded area in warm, soapy water and gently try to pull the skin apart. Do not force. For accidental application to unintended surfaces, try to wipe away excess immediately. If cured, consult product instructions for removal or abrasion.

Glue dries too quickly before parts can be aligned

Apply glue to only one surface and have both parts ready for immediate joining. Work in a well-ventilated area.
