What does a superglue activator do?
It accelerates the cure of cyanoacrylate superglue, so the bond reaches strength almost immediately. It also helps the glue grip difficult or slightly acidic surfaces and stops it soaking into porous materials.
Do I apply it before or after the glue?
Both, depending on the job. On difficult surfaces, apply the activator first and let it flash off, then add the glue. For fillets and larger beads, apply the glue first, then the activator.
Which superglues does it work with?
Any cyanoacrylate, including our HVC16 high viscosity and RGC medium viscosity superglues.
Is the light staining a problem?
No. A little light staining can appear after several hours and is normal.
How should I store it?
Cool and dry, below 25°C and out of direct sunlight. It keeps for 24 months from manufacture.
Should I buy the 200 ml or 400 ml?
The 200 ml suits occasional use; the 400 ml is the better value for regular or production work.
