How do you clean up Glu Stik?
If you get Bostik Glu Stik on a surface by accident, remove as much of the adhesive as possible and clean the area as soon as possible.
Because Bostik Glu Stik is water-soluble, it can be cleaned away using water. The most suitable cleaning method may vary depending on the surface or material involved, so test on a small area first where appropriate.
How does viscosity affect adhesive performance?
Viscosity refers to how thick or fluid an adhesive is. Lower-viscosity adhesives flow more easily, while higher-viscosity adhesives are thicker and provide greater control during application.
The viscosity of an adhesive can influence how it spreads, fills gaps and performs on vertical surfaces, making it an important factor when selecting the right product for a project.
What is the shelf life of the adhesive I have bought and where can I store it?
The shelf life of adhesives varies from product to product, but typically ranges between one and two years from the date of manufacture when unopened and stored correctly in dry conditions - usually between +5°C and +25°C. Once opened, the life of the product will be more limited – this is dictated by variables including the type of adhesive, how it is stored, and how much adhesive is left unused. For more information, refer to the product’s Technical Data Sheet.
What should I do if glue stick gets in a child's eye?
If glue stick gets in a child's eye, rinse the affected eye immediately with plenty of clean water. Continue rinsing thoroughly to help remove any residue.
If irritation, discomfort or redness continues after rinsing, seek medical advice or professional healthcare assistance as soon as possible.
