Scotch® Glues FAQ's

How should I prepare a surface before gluing?
Make sure the surface is clean, dry and free of debris. For smooth, hard surfaces, use sandpaper or steel wool to gently roughen the surface before gluing to get a stronger bond.
What type of glue is best for wood, fabric or metal?
Some adhesive glues are designed for use on one type of surface, while others are designed to be multi-purpose and work on a variety of surfaces. The best way to check is by reading the information/instructions that come with the product

Scotch® Super Glue and Scotch® Multi-Purpose Glue can bond to many substrates, but Scotch® Super Glue dries much quicker. Generally, Scotch® Super Glue is also stronger than Scotch® Multi-Purpose glue, but not in all cases.

Our multi-purpose clear glue is ideal for use on paper, poster board, cardboard, wood, fabric, metal, aluminium, formica, vinyl, PVC and acrylic. Scotch® Super Glue is commonly used for gluing wood, metal, leather, ceramic, rubber, some plastics and similar materials. Scotch® Super Glue is usually not a good choice for paper.
How to remove dried glue?
Try gently working vegetable oil or baby oil around the edges of the dried glue. Alternatively, try soaking the skin in warm, soapy water. Be very gentle - do not pull glued skin surfaces apart with a direct opposing action as skin damage may result.
