Mastergame Cyanoacrylate Glue Activator 200ml is a professional agent designed to significantly speed up the curing process of CA (cyanoacrylate) glues, commonly known as Super Glue. This product is a key element in modeling, crafting, and all applications requiring fast and durable bonds.
Key Features and Applications
Mastergame Activator was developed to improve the effectiveness of cyanoacrylate bonding in various conditions. Its main features include:
Accelerated Curing: Its primary function is to instantly initiate the polymerization of CA glue, which shortens the bonding time to a minimum and allows for immediate progression to subsequent work stages.
Prevents Blooming: Effectively eliminates the formation of unsightly white residues (known as 'blooming') on the surface of bonded elements, which is a common issue during the drying of cyanoacrylate glues.
Enables Thicker Bonds: Allows for the application and rapid curing of significantly thicker glue layers, which is invaluable for filling gaps, irregularities, or joining loosely fitting parts.
Bonding Porous Surfaces: On highly porous materials such as wood, paper, or certain plastics, the activator prevents the glue from being absorbed into the material's structure, which increases bond strength and optimizes glue consumption.
Support in Challenging Conditions: It is essential in environmental conditions that slow down the natural bonding of CA glues, such as low air humidity (dry air) or low ambient temperature.
Material Compatibility: The activator is compatible with a wide range of modeling and crafting materials, including plastics (polystyrene, ABS), metals, wood, resins, rubber, and ceramics, provided they are compatible with cyanoacrylate glues. Please note that the activator does not replace a primer for materials considered 'inactive' for CA glues.
Application Methods
The Mastergame 200ml Activator can be applied in two main ways, depending on your needs:
Application Before Gluing
Apply the activator to one of the surfaces to be bonded.
Allow the activator to evaporate completely (the surface should be dry to the touch).
Apply cyanoacrylate glue to the second, non-activated surface.
Quickly join the parts and press them together. The bond will cure almost instantly.
Application After Gluing
Apply cyanoacrylate glue to the surfaces to be joined and connect the parts, setting them in the desired position.
Spray the activator directly onto the resulting bond.
Allow the bond to cure quickly.
To achieve an ideally smooth bond surface, it is recommended to spray the activator from a distance of approximately 30 cm. This application method requires the use of a specially designed nozzle that ensures even dispersion of the agent.
