Troubleshooting
Glue takes too long to dry.
Ensure the application is thin and the room temperature is adequate. If the glue is old, it may take longer to dry.
Glue isn't bonding properly.
Make sure the surfaces are clean and free of dust or debris. Apply a sufficient amount of glue, ensuring full contact between the surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No special setup is required. Simply apply a thin layer of the cement to the surfaces you wish to bond.
Compatibility: This cement is primarily designed for balsa wood and other light woods. Test on a small, inconspicuous area before applying to a large project to ensure compatibility.
Care: Store the cement in a cool, dry place. Keep the cap tightly sealed to prevent drying out. Clean up excess cement with a damp cloth before it dries. Once dry, the bond is permanent, so be careful during application.
