Glass has a lot of advantages and one lack of disadvantage - fragility. The owners of a broken thing arises a question - how to glue the glass so that the subject does not lose attractiveness. The process of restoring the integrity of the subject is not so complicated, just follow the sequence of operations.
1
As part of silicate glass, there are silicon, so glues with this element are used for a durable compound of glass products. When the polymerization of the silicon molecule in the glass and the glue interact with each other and form a heavy-duty molecular connection. Silicon is present in silicate glue, which is ideal for a similar operation.
2
There are many modifications of silicate adhesive, so when buying, examine the recommendations for its use. For example, for the manufacture of aquariums, take the product with a special mark, which guarantees the absence of elements harmful to fish substances. For the same aquariums need glue that creates an elastic connection capable of giving off strikes. Otherwise, the glass will crack even from the temperature drop.
3
Before starting the surface, the surface is degreasing by gasoline, solvent or other substance. Silicate glue is sold in tubes in small volumes or in large tubes. In the latter case, a special gun is required to extrude content.
4
Gently cut the tip of the tube nozzle in such a way that the thickness of the extruded strip is not wider than the surface gluable. Highlight the glass with a hairdryer to a temperature of 50-60 degrees. Carefully apply a thin layer of substance on the surfaces glued surfaces, do not extrude the residues after drying it difficult to remove. Press the items, check the substance evenly separated over the surface, air bubbles in the junction are not allowed. Sprinkle the walls of parts with water - silicate glue freezes under the action of moisture, which absorbs from the air.
5
Leave glued parts for a day. After 20 minutes, polymerization will occur, an hour after an hour hardens. After 24 hours, a whole glass will surpass the joint. Excess glue Remove the blade or napkin dipped in vinegar.
6
Decorative finishing works use special high-quality glass glue. It differs from silicone transparency, transparency, moisture protection, heat resistance. These funds include Verylube, RapidFix, Pernabond. After gluing the connection, the connection is almost not visible. Such a composition can be fixed glass to metal and wood.
7
Particularly strong compounds are obtained using glue, frozen under the influence of ultraviolet radiation. For work, you need a UV lamp, irradiation time - 3 minutes. Details are able to withstand a significant load.
8
Universal adhesives are also able to combine glass details, but they are inferior to special. "Polyvinila acetate", "BF-2" are considered from the universal funds. "Unicum", "Moment-1". After the operation, colorless jokes that do not pass moisture are obtained.

Glue glue can be prepared at home. A good mixture is obtained when mixing bone glue and a small part of the ash. The substance is applied to heated glass. For fastening glass to the tree, wood ashes and carbon black glue, which are stirred to obtain a thick homogeneous mass. Temporarily combine fragments with garlic. Garlic slices cut down and soda glued surfaces, then squeeze them.
For a reliable connection, it is necessary to correctly select the adhesive composition. Consultations on gluing glass products of different types can be obtained in the building of building materials.
