Who & What is Krazy Glue?
Krazy Glue®, a super-strong, fast-drying adhesive was introduced to the North American market in 1973. From fine china and collectibles, to holiday wreaths and model trains, most recognize Krazy Glue, as the glue that can bond anything.
The chemical name for Krazy Glue is ethyl cyanoacrylate. Defined as a non-toxic, colorless, fast- acting adhesive, it can hold up to 2,000lbs. per square inch. A catalyst is required to activate Krazy Glue. Commonly water, which is present on almost any surface, it makes it even more important to always keep the glue container sealed tightly.
A little
Krazy Glue goes a long way. Requiring only a small amount to form a bond, our glue works best on smaller surfaces. With a light touch, it bonds instantly—no chemical catalyst, clamps, vices or other heat sources necessary.
What`s the best way to use it?
Clean and dry surface thoroughly. Remove paint, old glue or other substances. Sand or plane your wood to make a flat surface. Remove oil and dust from metal surfaces. For best results, clean metal with an acetone solvent. Squeeze a small amount of Krazy Glue onto surface. Use one drop per square inch—too much will take longer to bond, or may not bond at all. Join the parts and press for 30 seconds. Make sure that the parts are stable, and allow it to set for a few minutes. For maximum strength, allow the glue to cure overnight. Once you’re finished using Krazy Glue, keep it fresh by closing the container tightly and storing in a cool, dark place.
This is just a quick little shout out to Krazy Glue! They sent me a sample of their product and I love using it for my random craft projects. I used to love hot glue, but I quickly learned that once it`s dry, it doesn`t really provide a strong hold, depending on what you`re using it for. That`s how I discovered and fell in love with Krazy Glue. During my jewelry making days, I loved how Krazy Glue would hold the pieces together. It`s got a strong hold and dries clear, so it worked out perfectly for making my fashion jewelry. Same goes for other random various crafts where I need a convenient glue that will provide a strong hold. Needless to say, I am a proud supporter and user of Krazy Glue and will continue using it for all future craft projects as well!
TIP: Water vapor is the catalyst that activates the Krazy Glue bond. Since moisture is present in the air at all times, an open tube of Krazy Glue will "cure" very quickly. To prolong the useful life of your tube, always replace the cap immediately. You may also consider Single-Use Packages containing 0.5 grams of Krazy Glue so you can use each tube once and throw it away.
