    Wrap. The purchase of glass glue should at least carefully check the content on its outer packaging, determine its origin, specifications and models and other data, to ensure that it is qualified and regular products.

    Generally, the plastic bottle will be clearly marked with its use and the problems that need to be paid attention to, and its net content and specifications can be determined through the packaging, so that it is convenient for us to choose the right glass glue.

    It is still necessary to choose the brand.

    Glass glue purchase or don't buy some miscellaneous brands for a few dollars cheaper, it will affect the effect and quality of the overall decoration, or choose the brand of glass glue, its quality and quality will have a certain guarantee.

    When purchasing, we can observe its detailed description, which can help us distinguish the quality from the bad.

    Glass glue quality.

    If you want to choose the best style, you must use the right method when choosing, and the most intuitive way is to smell it first, and then see how the gloss of the finished product is.

    Then check whether there are particles and bubbles, etc., if not, check its curing effect, as well as the adhesion of glass glue, etc., only the glass glue with these effects has good quality, and it can also meet our decoration needs.

    Although glass glue is a relatively small construction material, it can make it easy to decorate many places. However, in order to save a little decoration cost, and choose a cheap style of glass glue, the viscosity of this glass glue will be relatively poor, and it will affect the decoration effect, and there will be mildew or blackening, which will affect the overall decoration effect of the home.

    Don't be naïve to think that glass glue is used to glue glass. As a professional edge adhesive, there are countless places where glass glue needs to be used in decoration: the gap between the sink countertop and the wall;

    the gap between the countertop and the sink;

    the gap between the door casing and the wall;

    the gap between the bottom of the toilet bowl and the floor;

    the gap between the bottom of the shower room and the ground;

    In addition, there are many gaps in the bathroom vanity mirror, bathtub, window, sewer outlet, baseboard and so on that need to be sealed with glass glue.

    So the question arises: do you need to buy your own glass glue that is so widely used? It depends.

    Most decoration companies and installers will bring their own glass glue, but in order to save money, they may choose poor glass glue, which is not strong, has poor elasticity and mildew resistance. Generally, after a maximum of 6 months, problems such as blackening, mold, rotting, and cracking will occur. So ask in advance what glass glue they use, and if it's not good, prepare it yourself.

    Classification of glass glue From the perspective of performance, glass glue is mainly divided into three types: acidic, neutral and nail-free. After the acid glass glue is opened, it has an obvious pungent odor, strong viscosity, and a short curing time, usually the surface can be dried in about 2 hours, and it can be completely cured in 24 hours. There is a certain corrosiveness, so many things cannot be used, such as mirrors, which will corrode the coating behind the mirror.

    However, where the adhesive strength is particularly strong, such as the dumb mouth behind the wood line, it is best to use acid glass glue.

    Neutral glass glue has no pungent odor and is not corrosive. However, the viscosity is weak, and the curing time is slightly longer, generally 3 to 4 hours for the surface to dry, and 48 hours to fully cure. The same brand and the same series of glass glue are generally 3 4 yuan more expensive than acidic ones.

    Because neutral glass glue has a small taste and is not corrosive, it is most widely used in interior decoration. Neutral glass adhesive is divided into anti-mildew sealant, weather-resistant sealant, stone sealant, pipe sealant, aquarium special glue and so on. Different glues are suitable for different occasions, such as wet places such as kitchens and bathrooms, and anti-mildew glue should be used; Windows should be weather-resistant glue.

    Although there are relatively few places where glass glue is used in decoration, its quality and performance cannot be ignored. It is not uncommon for families to lose money due to poor quality or improper use of glass glue after decoration, and I would like to remind you here.

    Different performance and usage vary.

    The glass glue commonly used in home decoration is divided into two types according to its performance: neutral glass glue and acid glass glue. Many people tend to use neutral glass glue and acid glass glue as the opposite.

    The places where glass glue is generally used in home decoration are: the dumb place on the back of the wood line, sanitary ware, toilet, makeup mirror in the bathroom, the gap between the sink and the wall, etc., these places should use glass glue with different properties. The adhesive of neutral glass adhesive is relatively weak, and it is generally used on the back of the bathroom mirror where it does not require strong adhesion.

    Neutral glass glue is used more in home decoration, mainly because it does not corrode objects, while acid glass glue is generally used in the dumb mouth on the back of the wood line, and the adhesion is very strong.

    Pay attention to mildew prevention There is another important point to use glass glue: it is important to prevent mildew. For example, many glass glues are used in bathrooms.

    The bathroom is already very humid and easy to mold, so the glass glue must be mildew-proof. Generally, there are instructions on the glass glue bottle, so be sure to see it. In addition, some glass glue of poor quality does not have such a function at all, so you must recognize it when buying.

    Don't be cheap.

    At present, the quality of glass glue on the market is uneven, and consumers cannot buy low-cost products. Each bottle of household glass glue is generally about seven or eight yuan, and some can be about 30 yuan per bottle. However, there are also two or three yuan per bottle on the market, and the quality of glass glue at such a price can be imagined.

    To read the instructions carefully The instructions on the glass plastic packaging must be read, sometimes the same brand products will also be divided into series and grades, and there will be notes on the instructions. For example, level 5 and level 7, these levels correspond to a certain range of use and categories. At present, there is no unified standard for the industry in China, but there will be a unified standard for foreign brands of glass glue, such as 7-grade glass glue should be used for sanitary ware.

    Try to choose the kind that can prevent mildew, it is mainly used for sealing, not for sticking things.

    Let's talk about glass glue and structural adhesive, these two types of glue are commonly used glue types, but glass glue is used more in home decoration, and structural glue is used more in construction engineering, so what are the differences between structural glue and glass glue? Which sticker is stronger? Today I will introduce to you the difference between structural adhesive and glass adhesive.

    Glass glue: It is a common adhesive commonly used in households, which can be divided into neutral glass glue and acid glass glue, which has good viscosity and good sealing.

    Structural adhesive: It is a tool used for structural bonding, such as the bonding of the sunroom frame and glass, the bonding of the lighting roof frame and the glass, the connection of the wooden frame and the tile of the TV background wall, etc. It is a glue with very high adhesive strength.

    Glass glue: Glass glue is mainly used for sealing between window frames and glass, sealing between window frames and walls, sealing between door frames and walls, sealing between glass and glass in sunrooms, sealing between stone and stone, sealing kitchen countertops, sealing between glass and tiles on the toilet and floor.

    Structural adhesive: It is mainly divided into high-performance silicone structural adhesive and neutral transparent structural adhesive, and the color is mainly black.

    Glass glue: mainly divided into acid glass glue and neutral glass glue, according to the color and black, white, transparent, bronze, silver gray, etc., definitely not, structural glue is a glue with very strong adhesion, is suitable for structural bonding, and glass glue does not have the bonding effect between structures, it is mainly sealing, so the two can not be replaced.

    Of course, it is structural adhesive, the adhesion of structural adhesive is better, and glass glue is not mainly used for bonding, its main role is sealing, so the basic use of the two is different, and the structural adhesive is more expensive than glass glue.

    If we talk about viscosity and firmness, it must be that the structural adhesive is better, because the main use of glass glue is better sealing, although there is also the effect of adhesion, but the use of the two glues is basically different, and the structural adhesive is generally twice as expensive as glass glue, so you can choose which glue to use according to your own needs.

    1. Choose brand glass glue, they are the best in quality, and there will be specific product descriptions on the brand glass glue packaging, which is convenient for consumers to distinguish performance.

    2. Look at whether the usage and precautions on the plastic bottle are clearly marked, and whether the net content is accurate.

    3. Try not to be greedy for cheap when purchasing. Generally, try not to buy a few yuan or more than ten yuan.

    4. Choose glass glue with different properties according to the different use locations, such as wet places such as kitchens and bathrooms, and try to choose waterproof and mildew-proof glass glue. Generally, good glass glue will have such a description, while inferior glass glue does not have such a function at all.

    5. Personal advice: Don't buy transparent.

    May this work for you.

    1. Try to choose brand glass glue, they are the best in quality, and there will be specific product descriptions on the brand glass glue packaging, which is convenient for consumers to distinguish performance.

    2. See whether the content on the product packaging is complete, whether there is a product name, factory name, specification, color, date of use, etc., see whether the usage and precautions on the plastic bottle are clearly marked, and whether the net content is accurate.

    3. To prevent the choice of low-cost and low-quality products, many consumers will choose cheap products when buying glass glue. The use of cheap glue will not only affect the quality and shorten the service life, but more importantly, it is easy to rework and delay the construction period. Generally, try not to buy a few yuan or more than ten yuan.

    4. When we buy glass glue, we should first understand the specific function of glass glue, and choose glass glue with different properties according to the different locations used, such as kitchen and bathroom in humid places, and try to choose waterproof and mildew-proof glass glue. Generally, good glass glue will have such a description, while inferior glass glue does not have such a function at all, so you must observe carefully when buying.

    1. Look at the aesthetics after adhesion: alkaline glass glue is relatively viscous than acid glass glue, alkaline glass glue is prone to wrinkles, unevenness, roughness and other phenomena, while acid glass glue will not appear in these conditions due to non-viscous.

    2. Smell: Acidic glass glue (also called neutral glass glue) reacts with the moisture in the air during the curing process, and will release a gas called acetic acid gas to volatilize a vinegar smell, and alkaline glass glue reacts with the moisture in the air during the curing process, which will release ethanol gas, so there is almost no pungent smell.

    3. Look at the specific things used: acidic glass glue cannot be used on metals and alkaline substances, but alkaline glass glue can.

    4. Look at the price of the two: because the acid glue corrodes the metal material and reacts with the alkaline material, it is relatively cheaper than the alkaline glass glue, and the alkaline glass glue has a wider range of applications, and its market is slightly higher than the acid glue.

    5. Look at the size of the adhesive force: the adhesive strength of acidic glass adhesive is relatively strong, while the adhesive strength of alkaline glass adhesive is relatively weak.

    1. What is the best glass glue.

    1. Acid glass glue, this kind of glass glue is the most common, it can be bought in any decoration material store, and it is also the cheapest one. This glass glue will have a very unpleasant smell after opening, but its solidification speed is very fast, generally in about two hours will be completely solidified, after a day can be used on the bonded items. Its adhesion is also the best, but it is corrosive, and it will corrode the coating on the mirror, so it cannot be used on the mirror.

    However, its seal is relatively good and can be used in the place of edge banding.

    2. Neutral glass glue, generally the neutral glass glue in the same brand is more expensive than the acid glass glue. Neutral glass glue solves the shortcomings of acid glass glue will corrode, so the use of neutral glass glue is also very extensive, and neutral glass glue does not have that unpleasant taste, and it will not make people feel uncomfortable when using it. However, the solidification rate of neutral glass glue is slower, usually about four hours to solidify, and two days later to fully solidify, which is twice as slow as acid glass glue.

    3. Nail-free glue, this glue is actually an upgraded version of neutral glass glue, which is made of a special process, which is a combination of all the advantages of acid glass glue and neutral glass glue, and the bonding performance is very strong, and there will be no corrosiveness, which can be used on any material. However, the ** of nail-free glue is relatively expensive, and the setting time and neutral glass glue are about the same.

    4. The production cost of nail-free glue is relatively high, and all decoration companies rarely use this glue, and the owners generally need to buy it themselves. Nail-free adhesive is very suitable for use in materials with a larger bonding area and heavier weight, while the materials generally used in home decoration are relatively lightweight.

    5. Nail-free adhesive actually has shortcomings, that is, its sealing performance and waterproof performance are not very good, and it is not suitable for use in kitchens and bathrooms.

    Second, glass glue purchase skills.

    1. It is also very important to look at the anti-mildew performance of glass glue, because glass glue is generally used in the bathroom, and everyone knows that the bathroom is very humid, and all of them are easy to mold.

    2. Look at the brand, there are many glass glue brands on the market, and some smaller brand products are also relatively poor, so it is better to choose larger brand products when buying.
