🛠 Instructions for Use

1. Apply Loctite SF-712 activator to one of the bonding surfaces.

2. Allow it to dry (typically < 30 seconds).

3. Apply cyanoacrylate adhesive (Loctite 401, 406, 454, etc.) to the other surface.

4. Immediately press parts together. Hold firmly for a few seconds.

5. Bond is typically set within seconds and fully cured within minutes.

⚠️ Avoid excess activator application, as it may reduce adhesive strength. Always wear gloves and use in well-ventilated areas.
