Troubleshooting
Glue is not bonding effectively
Ensure surfaces were properly prepared (clean, dry, sanded). Check if the glue is within its shelf life. Verify adequate clamping pressure was applied and maintained.
Glue is drying too slowly
High humidity or very porous wood can slow drying. Ensure good air circulation. Increase clamping time if necessary. Avoid excessive application of glue.
Nozzle is clogged
Use a thin wire or needle to carefully clear the clog. If hardened, try soaking the nozzle tip in warm water for a short period.
Excess glue is difficult to remove
Wipe away excess immediately with a damp cloth before it cures. If partially cured, gently scrape with a plastic scraper or use a suitable solvent as per material recommendations.
