12-205 = Hypo Tube Cement Jewelry Glue

Tiny Tip. Precise Placement. Far Less Glue Everywhere Else.
G-S Hypo Cement is a medium-strength, crystal-clear adhesive made for the small, precise jobs that make ordinary glue tubes feel like fire hoses.

Its built-in precision applicator places a tiny amount of cement exactly where you need it, making it particularly useful for jewelry making, beadwork, watch repair, model building, miniatures, and other detailed craft applications.

The adhesive sets in approximately 10 minutes while still allowing time to position your components. Once dry, it remains clear for a neat, unobtrusive bond.

Ideal For
* Securing knots in bead stringing
* Small jewelry components and glue-in findings
* Watch crystals and watch repair
* Glass, ceramic, metal, and many plastics
* Beadwork and miniature projects
* Model building and model railroads
* Fine screw locking
* Detailed household and craft repairs

Recommended primarily for clean, close-fitting, nonporous surfaces.

* Made in the USA
* Available since 1939
* Contains 1/3 fl. oz. (approximately 9 ml)

Application
1. Make sure both surfaces are clean, dry, and free from oil or dust.
2. Apply a small amount of cement to one surface with the precision tip.
3. Join the parts and position them as needed.
4. Allow the bond to set without movement.
5. Replace the cap wire in the applicator tip immediately after use.

Use sparingly. More adhesive does not necessarily create a better bond.  It generally creates a larger cleanup project.

Always test the cement on an inconspicuous area before use, particularly on plastics, painted finishes, coated stones, or other solvent-sensitive materials.

Keeping the Applicator Happy
* Flatten the tube gradually from the sealed end as it empties.
* Do not roll or tightly coil the tube.
* Avoid squeezing the center of the tube unnecessarily.
* Wipe the needle-point area clean before replacing the cap.
* The applicator tip may be cleaned carefully with rubbing alcohol before closing.
* Always insert the cap wire fully when the tube is not being used.
