Usage instructions
Unscrew the top from the nozzle. For finer applications, use the included extender tip. Apply Maxi-Cure to one side of the parts being joined, then hold firmly together for 10 to 20 seconds. For larger areas, apply in serpentine beads with spacing to allow spreading. Spray Insta-Set Accelerator to cure any adhesive that oozes from joints. Wipe the nozzle clean before replacing the cap. Refrigerate to extend shelf life. Soak the extender tip in acetone for cleaning.
