Sticky has a viscosity of 1000. br>Xfactor has a viscosity of 2000. The lower viscosity is only recommended for professional use because it is much thinner, allowing you to use less adhesive and increase your profits. Both of these treatments are effective.
This is a snarky question, but buy it and use it because it works! I used mine to add readers to my diving mask because it can handle high pressures and is used in saltwater, which is the harshest environment possible!
Yes. Two 5ml tubes and a plunger are all that is included.
That does not appear to be a viable option. Because the Loca is viscous, it must be exposed to UV light in order to cure. Although it's possible that it would work, I believe you're looking for a clear resin.

This s*** was, without a doubt, the best solution I could have hoped for. I own an HTC U12, and after some research, I discovered that replacing the screen is a major pain (surprise). Even if I wanted to replace the screen, all of the options available on the internet had poor ratings. I wish I had some before and after images to show the fix using this magical fluid, but believe me when I say that I couldn not see about 2015 of my screen in the% br>br>With a plastic razor blade and a regular razor blade, the repairs took about 20 minutes. Because I only squeezed out about 3 drops onto mine to fix it, one small tube could probably fill 30 screens. I was concerned at first because the screen was covered in goo and appeared to be damaged, but after it had dried for about an hour, I began to see my screen as whole again.
This is certainly not a 100% fix that will completely remove your cracks but man is it a huge difference and worth the $5. I was afraid I'd cut my ear off every time I raised my phone to speak, but it's now as smooth as it was. br>br>10/10 would recommend for anyone with internals attached to the screen rather than the phone's back.
I recently purchased a Galaxy Note 8 and began looking for a glass screen protector, only to discover that the majority of the protectors on the market were junk, with the exception of Whitestone's "dome," which costs $45 and uses LOCA glue! However, I was confident that obtaining the components of their kit and performing the installation myself would be inexpensive. I already had a UV light from another project, so I just bought this glue and a generic glass screen protector. I removed the protective layer's existing adhesive and replaced it with this glue. The installation went off without a hitch! Because the glue is more viscous than whitestone's, I taped the edges of my phone and used an excessive amount of glue to completely cover my screen. I had no problems with the glue curing, and it's strong but still easy to remove if necessary.
Hello everyone,br>br>So after doing a lot of research on how to use this with a cheap tempered glass protector, I thought I'd come here and share some observations and tips after a pretty painful and time-consuming experience. There is no particular order in which these should be read. I recommend watching a few videos under "DIY TGSP LOCA" on Youtube to get a sense of the basics. Things to have on hand:
Microfiber towels
Q Tips (lots)
Isopropyl alchohol 91%
First, I did this on my% However, I'm guessing the process is similar on other phones with curved glass. After seeing firsthand results, I'd recommend purchasing at least a two-pack of TGSPs so that you can easily try again if you make a mistake the first time. If possible, look for a TGSP with no complex cutouts near the top or bottom, but this isn't required. Any of them will suffice, but some are better than others. Don't put too much emphasis on that. Purchase additional LOCA because they only send enough for four applications. br>br>As advertised, this LOCA is extremely thick, and it took me 30 minutes to crawl to the edges. After messing up, I can say it came off the TGSP and stock screen relatively easily, albeit a little messy (even after cured). The fact that there was no damage was the most important factor. Watch a few YouTube videos to get an idea of how much you'll need, and then add a little more. However, after going through the procedure, I'm glad I didn't have something more expedient. Because of the slow pace, I was able to get some work done and make minor changes along the way. br>br>The most important thing I wish someone had told me before I began is: Before applying the TGSP, spread the LOCA across your screen in a long oval shape! It not only reduces the amount of time spent waiting, but it also keeps the screen protector stock adhesive from coming into contact with the screen. If the stock adhesive sets and adheres, it diverts the LOCA away from the LOCA, causing the LOCA to either not fill or leave an air bubble. A little more LOCA will also help, though you'll have more to clean later, which isn't such a big deal. Hold the screen protector in place for the first ten seconds or so when curing the LOCA. Consider a liquid with a smooth glass on top. If you let it, it will float around. On the second try, I got it almost perfect (with a small bubble that I could live with), but it floated and obscured my FF camera during the curing process. FML, 45 minutes of my life have been squandered. After being exposed to UV, this material does not budge. br>br>After burning both of my new protectors, I refused to give up and attempted to clean one. I can assure you that if properly cleaned, they can be reused after a failed attempt using a combination of Goo Gone, window cleaner, alcohol, and masking tape. My third attempt resulted in a reused piece of glass, as seen in the photo. ***After removing the adhesive from the back of the TGSP, it will still feel "sticky. " This is due to a layer of silicone (or something similar) that holds it together if it cracks! *** Simply clean it as thoroughly as possible, then use masking tape to remove any particles; any minor flaws will be filled in with the LOCA. If it looks hazy, just clean the front of the glass and it will go away for the most part, especially when you apply the LOCA and it gets "wet. " If it looks hazy, just clean the front of the glass and it will go away for the most part, especially when you apply the LOCA and it gets "wet. " br>br>If bubbles appear, simply submerge the tip of a clean card, plastic, or whatever in the LOCA to remove or pop them. On the surface, particularly large ones, they usually just pop. br>br>Finishing Thoughts: br>With the future of phones being curved glass, I believe it is essential to learn as early as possible, and with kits starting at $60, DIY is the way to go. br>br>The cured consistency of this LOCA was similar to the glue used to secure a credit/debit card to the paper when you receive one in the mail, but it was much stronger. You know, the kind of glue you peel off and rub between your fingers before sticking it back on the paper to throw away. br>br>The final product looks and functions as if it came straight from the factory. I think the clarity is about as good as I could hope for; I hope this is helpful!.
