Surface Prep — Glass

  • 1Clean with glass cleaner, then immediately wipe with isopropyl alcohol for a solvent-clean surface.
  • 2Bond within 10 minutes of cleaning — glass re-contaminates quickly from airborne oils.
  • 3UV-cure adhesives produce cleaner, stronger bonds than silicone where optical clarity is needed.
  • 4Tempered glass cannot be cut or drilled — plan bond placement carefully.
