How to use
Remove cap from tube and pierce seal with reverse side of cap. Apply a thick layer of Bostik Glu GO to the desired area using the scraper and leave for 10 - 30 minutes, (depending on thickness, size, type and age of the adhesive being removed). Fresh uncured glue spills can be wiped off almost immediately. Remove the softened adhesive with a cloth, hard plastic scraper or spatula. A second to third application may be required, depending on the thickness and age of the residue. Covering with a plastic sheet to keep a longer contact time with Bostik Glu Go will enhance performance. Once the adhesive residue has been removed, wash the surface with soap and water. Close lid to avoid product drying out and rinse scraper and utensils after application. For best results, used on fresh uncured glue spills and those that are less than 24 hours old.

FAQs
How do I remove glue from my fingers?
Rinse your fingers immediately with plenty of warm soapy water and do not pull on the skin that has been glued. If glue remains after using warm soapy water, it will often de-bond within a couple of days due to general wear and tear and the natural oils in the skin. If skin irritation occurs, consult a doctor.

What is the shelf life of the adhesive i 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.
How do I store my adhesive?
Most adhesives have a shelf life of at least 12 months if stored in a cool (below 25°C), dry place in its original moisture-tight container. If the material is kept beyond the recommended shelf life, it is not necessarily unusable, but a check should be performed to observe whether the product is still workable, apply-able and uncured.
How do I remove sticky residue from tapes?
Adhesive residue from most sticky tapes can be removed with acetone. Always test a small area first.
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.
