Before You Begin

• To get a good bond, make sure the surface is

clean and dry before applying.

• RapidFuse bonds to virtually everything—including

skin—so be careful not to get it on your hands. Don’t

use your hands to spread or wipe away excess.

(See Clean-Up, on the back of this guide, for tips.)

• Be careful when choosing plastics—RapidFuse does not

work on polypropylene, polyethylene, or PTFE (non-stick and

surfaces that repel water and stains).

Test your surface ﬁrst! RapidFuse works well on ABS, PVC,

and polycarbonate. A good guide is the stiffer the plastic,

the more likely it is compatible.

How to Fuse

• Don’t use too much—only a small amount of RapidFuse

adhesive is needed.

• So how much should I use? Use just enough to cover the

area you intend to bond with a thin coat of adhesive.

You will get a better bond with thin, even coverage.

Use less on non-porous materials like metal, glass or plastic.

Use a bit more on porous materials like wood or ceramics.

• Use the materials you are joining or the ﬁne tip of the

applicator to spread a small amount of glue around

the bonding area. Use a paper towel to wipe away

excess while wet.

• Use pressure—At least 30 seconds of heavy pressure

should be applied to get a strong bond. Clamps aren’t

necessary but can help hold a tight bond.

™ How to Clean-Up RapidFuse • Use Acetone nail polish remover to remove cured RapidFuse from your skin. Wash your hands first to remove any un-cured adhesive with soap and water, then wipe with an acetone-soaked cotton pad. Do not try to pull or peel RapidFuse off of your skin. • RapidFuse can be cleaned up with soap and water when it is wet. Once dry, you will need to use acetone nail polish remover to clean up excess. Put the acetone on a paper towel and wipe to remove.
