How to use super glue on ceramic: step-by-step

1. Make sure both surfaces are clean and dry.

2. Choose the right formula (see below).

3. Apply a small drop, press the pieces together, and hold for 10–45 seconds. Avoid stressing the bond for the first few minutes, and it'll reach full strength within 24 hours.

Notes:

  • Super glue is not food-safe or dishwasher-safe. Don't use it on surfaces that touch food or drink, or on items headed for the dishwasher.
  • LESS IS MORE - only 1 drop of glue needed to cover a square inch
  • Excess glue, gaps, and uneven surfaces may cause delayed or failed bonding
