        UHU all-purpose glue is a perfect all-rounder. If you could only keep one glue around the house, you would struggle to find something more versatile than UHU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/span>Extremely versatile<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        Probably the biggest selling point of UHU, and what has made it such a respected brand is the versatility of bonding materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        UHU sticks fast to wood, leather, plastic, glass, stone, ceramic, and metal without any problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        Check out the suitable applications table<\/a> for more information on what surfaces the glue works on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        UHU works in almost any condition. It will still cure even at very low temperatures. The manufacturer advises the adhesive is suitable for all weather conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/span>Fast bonding, but still readjustable<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        UHU has the bonding power of a CA glue, but with a longer readjustment time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        After you apply the glue, you have about 20 seconds to adjust your surfaces to the position you need them before the glue begins to harden. The glue is solid in about 5 or 6 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        According to the manufacturer, the bond will be fully cured after 24 hours, although again this will depend on the volume used, and the temperature and humidity of your working environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        <\/span>Precision applicator built in<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        The tube the glue comes in is made of metal, with a built-in metal applicator tip under the cap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        This is useful for situations where you need only a small amount, but it doesn’t prevent you from using a large volume if you need it for a bigger project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
        <\/span>Dries very clear (almost invisible)<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        UHU dries completely transparent and colorless, making it perfect for arts and crafts or for projects where you don’t want the glue to be visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        Important note:<\/b><\/i>
        If you’re careless when applying UHU, you can end up with bubbles trapped inside the glue as it hardens, ruining the invisibility. To avoid this, don’t let any air get trapped inside the tube, make sure you roll up the end of the tube-like toothpaste and put the cap back on straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

glue takes about 5 or 6 minutes to become solid and will have cured to around 80% strength after 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dry time depends on your working environment (temperature and humidity) and how much glue you used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-647\"> <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_remove_UHU_all_purpose_glue\"><\/span>How to remove
