Household Goop comes in a squeeze tube with a screw on cap and plastic applicator tip. It has been formulated to repair, seal, and stick to a wide variety of materials with superior strength and can replace rubber cement, contact cement, white glue, silicone and patch kits. Household Goop dries to a rubber-like consistency that's waterproof and flexible so it should not break or crack under stress. Goop is washer/dryer safe, but do not dry-clean because the dry-cleaning solvent breaks down the cured adhesive.
MATERIALS: Always test a small area before using on any project to ensure proper application technique and drying time. Not recommended for Styrofoam, polystyrene, polyethylene, or polypropylene plastics, or aquariums. Goop works on many materials including wood, glass, plastic, leather, linoleum, brick, marble, porcelain, ceramics, metal, copper, aluminum, brass, vinyl, rubber, neoprene, polycarbonate, ABS, PVC, waterproof cloth, fiberglass, Naugahyde.
CAUTIONS: The vapor is harmful and may cause dizziness, headache, or nausea. Causes eye, skin, nose and throat irritation. Contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. Keep away from heat, spark, and flame. Extinguish all sources of ignition during use and until all vapors are gone. Prevent build-up of vapors by working outside or opening all windows and doors to achieve cross ventilation.
COMPOSITION: Contains toluene and petroleum distillate.
FIRST AID: If one experiences difficulty in breathing, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If continued difficulty is experienced, get medical attention immediately. In case of eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water and get medical attention; for skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting but get medical attention.
USE: Goop can be applied in temperatures ranging from 50 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit. When cured, Goop can withstand temperatures between -40 and 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Should be used in a well ventilated area. Test a small area to ensure proper application technique and drying time. Keep threads at the neck of the tube free of residue; one can apply a thin coat of petroleum jelly to the threads of the tube before replacing the cap. Surfaces to be joined should be clean, dry, and free of dirt; for best results, roughen smooth surface before use. Apply directly to the area to be repaired. Allow repair to dry for 24 hours; for maximum strength, allow to dry for 72 hours. Various materials will require different drying times. To speed drying time, apply heat using a hand held dryer set on low, holding it at least 6 inches from the surface.
For use as contact adhesive, one applies Goop directly to each surface to be bonded. Allow to partially cure for 2-10 minutes before bringing surfaces together. Goop hardens by solvent evaporation. It forms an immediate bond that is difficult to reposition after both adhesive coated surfaces are placed in contact with each other and sufficient pressure exerted to establish full contact between both surfaces.
For use as a sealant, one applies Goop directly to the surface to be sealed. Use thin coats to build a thick coating on the surface to be sealed, allowing each layer to set 3-4 hours. Goop hardens by solvent evaporation, so allow time for thorough hardening to ensure proper bonding and wear resistance.
CLEAN UP: Small amounts of acetone or naptha may be used on uncured Goop and the adhesive will ball up and brush off. Cured Goop may be removed by cutting or scraping.
