Description
A two-part epoxy adhesive that bonds with maximum strength. Mixed product gels in 2 hours. Initial bonding is achieved in 6–8 hours, with maximum bond strength after 3 days.
Features
- Stronger than other glues due to the chemical reaction of the two parts
- Bonds a variety of surfaces
- Dries clear
- Very strong and durable bonding
- High water resistance (suitable for tiles around pools, but not below the water line for that use Selleys Knead It Aqua)
- Forms a rigid, durable bond
- Can be used for gap filling (surfaces need not mate closely)
- Good chemical resistance
- Heat resistant
- Clamping recommended for stronger bond
- Not suitable for bonding plastics such as Polypropylene and Polyethylene
- Bond strength weakens above 80°C but is regained when temperature drops
Appearance

How to Use
- Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease, rust, or paint.
- For best results, roughen smooth surfaces after solvent cleaning.
- Dispense equal volumes of Part A and Part B onto a clean disposable surface (e.g. cardboard or polyethylene) and mix thoroughly.
- Apply adhesive immediately to both surfaces and press together.
- Clamp the bond for 6–8 hours while setting.
- Scrape off excess adhesive and clean utensils immediately.
Handy Tips
- Mix in small quantities for longer working time — large mixes cure faster.
- Replace caps immediately after use and wipe nozzles with acetone or nail polish remover before sealing.
- Ensure caps are placed on the correct tubes (they are colour-coded).
- Remove uncured adhesive with acetone or nail polish remover.
- Once cured, remove by mechanical scraping or sanding — solvents will not dissolve the product.
- To reposition a cured bond, heat slowly to at least 150°C (if safe for the material), then scrape off excess and reposition carefully.
- For cleaning surfaces before use:
- Porous surfaces use Selleys Liquid Sugar Soap
- Non-porous surfaces (e.g. glass, metal) — clean with methylated spirits
- For stubborn residue use Selleys Kwik Strip Smart
Ensure the surface is dry before applying.
Safety Tips
- Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
- Avoid breathing vapour.
- Do not use solvents near eyes or open wounds.
- In case of eye contact, flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
- Non-toxic when set.
- Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for more information.
Storage & Reuse
- Replace caps tightly after use.
- Store in a cool, dry place.
