Advantages and disadvantages

First, we will focus on the advantages of liquid nail formulations.

  • The scope and ease of operation.
  • Excellent adhesion indicator with a variety of materials.
  • Reliability of connection. The layer easily transfers the load up to 80 kilograms per square centimeter.
  • The product is not subject to the formation of rust.
  • During the work with construction glue dust and dirt is not formed. And also there is no noise.
  • The composition quickly sets, literally in seconds.
  • Liquid nails can be used on surfaces that are defective. The product greatly simplifies the process of laying material on curved bases.
  • Unlike standard mounts, glue maintains the integrity of the surface without destroying it.
  • The compositions offered by modern manufacturers are safe for health due to non-toxic elements.
  • A quality product is not afraid of increased moisture.Some compounds withstand low temperatures.
  • Excellent resistance to fire.
  • Favorable expense.

Experts claim that there are no significant deficiencies in the products. Is that some compounds have a sharp and unpleasant smell.

However, thanks to modern technologies and developments, more and more adhesives with a neutral odor are being produced. And also some types have restrictions on use.

How to apply the composition?

For applying liquid nails Use step by step instructions.

  • The working surface must be cleaned, dried and, if necessary, degreased.
  • No need to apply the composition on all grounds. Stripes or dashed lines will be quite enough.
  • For greater convenience, use a special gun.
  • To protect indoor furniture and other items, use tape, thick fabric or newspapers.
  • Remember that the setting process takes a second, so the work must be done quickly. After you need to securely connect the parts and hold them for about two minutes, tightly pressing each other.
  • The process of complete hardening occurs in about a day. During this time it is recommended not to load the connected elements.

Removing adhesive from the surface

If the job is performed by a novice, then there are no errors in the process.

There are several ways to remove glue particles.

  • As long as the composition retains its softness and elasticity, it can be easily washed off with a regular soap solution.
