How to use
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dust, dirt, rust, oil, and other contaminants.
We recommend a preliminary test of the compatibility of the adhesive with adjoining materials before use.
Application
- To bond non-absorbent surfaces such as metal or glass, use a brush to apply a thin film of adhesive to both surfaces. Allow 5 to 10 minutes drying time and then, having correctly positioned the surfaces, press them together firmly. The bond will be instant and non-adjustable.
- If one or both surfaces are absorbent apply a generous film of adhesive to one surface only and immediately join the two surfaces together under pressure. Note: using this technique, initial bond strengths will be lower.
Cleaning
- Remove excess uncured sealant with a damp cloth or water immediately.
- Cured sealant is best removed by mechanical scraping or sanding.
- Use Bostik Handy Wipe towels to remove adhesive from skin.
FAQs
How do I prepare the surfaces to be glued
Before applying glue, ensure that all surfaces are of sound nature and clean, dry and free from dust, grease or any other contamination.
How long does my adhesive last?
The shelf life of an adhesive depends on the product type and how it is stored. When kept unopened in dry conditions, many adhesives can typically last between one and two years from the date of manufacture.
To help maintain performance, store adhesives in a cool, dry place, usually between 5°C and 25°C. Once opened, product life may be reduced depending on storage conditions and how much adhesive remains in the pack.
What is the difference between a multipurpose glue and super glue?
The main difference between a multipurpose glue and a super glue is the drying time. A super glue bonds within seconds (almost instantly) and an all purpose adhesive bonds within minutes (typically within five minutes). Multipurpose glue is ideal for use on a wide range of substrates, including paper, whereas super glue is more suited for use on solid surfaces only.
