To answer a personal message:
The glue is said to have a shelf life of 6-8 months (as I recall), due to the quick set feature of the formulation. I do not know if this is storage before use or after the tube is open.


Hofi wrote the follow suggestions for use of the sika
1 There must be a small clearance between the tool and the handle
2 Prepare small grooves on the place the handle seat in the tool perpendicular to the handle end
3 Use rubber thin gloves ( if one use the uncovered fingers ) it will take a week to clean off the sika. Smear the handle first and second the hammer eye. Then push the handle to the right location.
4 Wipe the excess sika with the gloved finger
5 Let it set for 48 hours
6 Brush with mechanical steel brush to clean
7 If one use only a part of the tube and want to preserve the rest from drying out one must stick the nozzle into turpentine. Then the material in the tip does no set and you can go on using it.
