Bob Smith Industries INSTA-CURE POCKET Super Thin CA (3/4oz)
Pocket CAs are available in 3/4 & 4 oz. sizes and feature a top that has a pin built into the cap that covers the nozzle. This pin seals the bottle so that if it is tipped over, the bottle will not leak. This makes the Pocket CAs ideal for keeping in your tool or field box, just like our IC-Gel. This pin also helps prevent the clogging of the nozzle. One disadvantage that the new Pocket CA top has is the bluntness of the nozzle. This makes it more difficult to apply small amounts of the CA, especially in tight places. BSI's #304 extender tip can be used on the nozzle for finer applications. The Pocket CAs are available with BSI's Insta-Cure, Insta-Cure+, Maxi-Cure and Super-Gold+.
About:
Insta-Cure has a water-thin viscosity that wicks deep into joints by capillary action and cures in a matter of a few seconds. Surfaces to be bonded must be tight fitting and should be held together while you apply the CA around the edges of the seam. At the moment CAs cure, they give off a vapor that can irritate the nose and eyes, so be prepared. Thin CAs work very well on balsa since they penetrate into the wood and form more than just a surface bond.
Works Best On:
Works Good On:
- Soft Wood
- Fiberglass
- Hard Plastics
- Water-Resistant
- CA Hinges
Directions:
Unscrew top from nozzle. For finer applications, use the extender tip. Insta-Cure CA is used to bond tight fitting parts. Hold the parts together (sometimes using masking tape), then apply the Insta-Cure along the joints. The CA will penetrate deep into the joints. Bonding will occur in 1-3 seconds. Excess cured CA can be removed from surfaces like ceramics by rubbing with a paper towel soaked in Un-Cure. Full strength is reached in two hours. Wipe the nozzle clean before replacing screw-on top. Refrigerate to extend shelf life. Cured CA is stable from -40 to 220ºF. Soak extender tip in acetone for cleaning.
