Protect work area from spills. Ensure surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry and free from dust or debris.
Using a spreader, apply a thin, even coat of adhesive to each surface to be bonded. Best results achieved when applied at room temperature.
Allow for adhesive to partially dry before positioning surfaces (approximately 15-20 minutes).
Press surfaces firmly together when final position is achieved. Allow a minimum of 24 hours for a full cure. Cure time is dependent on the amount of adhesive applied and may increase with lower application temperatures and when used on non-porous surfaces.
Clean-up and Storage: Wipe uncured adhesive with a dry cloth and clean with acetone, isopropyl alcohol, or citrus-based solvents according to manufacturer’s instructions. Cured adhesive may be removed by scraping from the surface. Replace lid tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from children and animals.
Gorilla Contact Adhesive Tin will work well on many types of plastic; however, we do not recommend for use on Polypropylene (PP), Polyethylene (PE) or Polystyrene (PS) plastics or any type of rubber with high oil or plasticizer content.

To open the tin, use a tool to prise open the lid at various points around the edge. When re-sealing, ensure any adhesive has been removed from the product edge and press firmly at multiple points around the edge of the lid to secure.
Gorilla Contact Adhesive Tin is paintable when fully cured.
Gorilla Contact Adhesive Tin can be applied between 10°C and 32°C. Do not apply above 50°C Once cured, the bond holds strong between -20°C and 82°C.
The approximate shelf life of Gorilla Contact Adhesive Tin is up to 2 years, unopened from date of manufacture. Once opened there is no standard time, it will be dependent on storage conditions, temperature, humidity and age of the product, up to 6/9 months is a good guideline. For optimum longevity of your Gorilla Contact Adhesive Tin store in a cool, dry location, away from sunlight or direct heat.
Gorilla Glue products are not recommended for direct or indirect food contact and should not be considered food safe.
While adhesive is still wet/uncured, wipe immediately off the surface with a dry cloth. Acetone, Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or citrus based solvents can be used according to manufacturer’s instructions. For dried/cured adhesive, mechanical means such as sanding or scraping are necessary.
Immediately rinse skin with water. When the majority of the adhesive has been removed, wash skin thoroughly with soap and warm water. If adhesive has dried/cured, carefully peel or roll adhesive off skin and wash with soap and warm water.
For medical emergencies, seek medical assistance immediately. Call 999/112 for emergency services. For animal emergencies, contact a vet or animal specialist immediately.
