Frequently Asked Questions

WILL RAPIDFIX BOND ANYTHING?

RapidFix will bond many materials, but not everything. Some softer plastics are not well-suited to repair by RapidFix. These include the black plastic hoses used commonly in lawn sprinkler systems.

Additionally, because the RapidFix seal is created in the absence of air, porous materials are also not great candidates for RapidFix repairs.

WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF RAPIDFIX?

RapidFix will not dry out under normal use ... like other Super Glue type products. To help extend the product’s life, make sure to clean the adhesive bottle’s nozzle and secure the cap. Storage is also a factor in shelf life. If stored out of direct sunlight in modest temperatures (60-70 degrees F), shelf life is around two years. Shelf life doubles if RapidFix is refrigerated or kept below 40 degrees.

HOW DO YOU CLEAN UP A RAPIDFIX SPILL?

Acetone (commonly found in nail polish remover) is effective at removing RapidFix from many surfaces. Like other adhesive agents, if you get some RapidFix on your hands, the best choice for getting it off is simply waiting. When dry, RapidFix simply flakes off in a matter of hours.
