Easily the best part about this adhesive is how it resists weathering from UV radiation. Not only does the translucent adhesive resist yellowing, but it also stays flexible in cold temperatures, and doesn’t become brittle or crack. It will also maintain its strength when fully submerged in both fresh and saltwater after drying completely and it even can be painted to match its surroundings flawlessly. In fact, painting over it will increase its longevity further because it keeps it out of UV rays even more. Not only that, but it will bond to objects which vibrate frequently without any problems.
Other Materials UV-6800 Can Bond With
While the materials listed at the beginning of this review are the materials that UV-6800 bonds with the best, but it can bond to more than those, just not as strongly. So to recap, the materials UV-6800 bonds with the best are ceramic, wood, glass, fiberglass, concrete, and metal, but it will also bond well with most plastics, vinyl, rubber, and leather. The bond will still be strong with these materials, you will likely just need to reapply the adhesive sooner.
How to Best Apply UV-6800
- First, make sure that both surfaces you are bonding together are clean, dry, and free of any dirt.
- Next, apply UV-6800 to both surfaces before bringing them together and allow 24-72 hours to dry, depending on how much is used.
- Any excess adhesive can be scraped off when dry or removed with acetone if still uncured. If you don't have acetone, a conservative amount of naphtha will work just fine.
- Be sure to store any remaining UV-6800 in a dry and room temperature setting.
- Repeat the process as necessary on any surface UV-6800 can bond with.
What You Need to Know Before You Buy UV-6800
UV-6800 contains the chemical perchloroethylene, which is harmless when exposed to in small amounts but can be dangerous if ingested, causing irritation to the skin, eyes, throat, nose, and even the respiratory system. Enough exposure can even cause unconsciousness and death, so be sure to keep it out of reach of children.
Other Important Things to Note
If you get UV-6800 on a surface you don’t want it on, do not try to remove it with things like water, antifreeze, motor oil, or sodium chloride, they will not work.

However, it’s very important to know that these chemicals will not dissolve UV-6800 instantaneously. You may need to wait several hours, up to a day to be able to separate the adhesive from the surface it’s on, depending on how dry and thick it is.
