Loctite 37438 Rearview Mirror Adhesive Kit - 0.3 cc

The rearview mirror on my 2001 Jeep fell off sever years ago. I don't drive often anymore. I bought a light plastic mirror from Amazon and installed in my Jeep... not the best option. I did eventually get it to adhere to the window, but eventually my Aussie knocked the mirror off... so for the past year, I've tried to reapply the plastic mirror, which would remain attached for a few days and fall off, basically I've had no mirror for the past year, but since I don't drive much, wasn't an issue... but because I don't drive, the battery went dead and I had to apply the trickle charger for a few days and now that I have the battery recharged, I will try to keep the battery charged by driving a few times a week, but to do so, I need a rear view mirror. So I decided not the purchase another mirror but to try to reattach a mirror. I still have the original mirror, but it is heavy. I also have a mirror similar to the original but lighter that attaches like the old mirror, so I decided to attach this mirror. I did some research and determined how to reattach a mirror and this adhesive Kit was one of my options. The kit was also less expensive than a new mirror. So, to make a long story short, I bought the kit and yesterday (10-16) I made my attempt to reattach the lighter replica of the original mirror. I read the instructions 4 or 5 times. I did several dry runs to make sure I was getting everything in it's proper place and that I was applying the glue to the appropriate side, etc., etc.... One of the instructions was to squeeze the Part A activator ampule until the vial breaks. There is a small sponge on the top of the ampule and after observing the ample for a few minutes, it was apparent that the "vial" separates the liquid activator from the sponge and I should squeeze the ampule at the top near the sponge to break the vial, and after several minutes of squeezing the ampule, the vial didn't break. I squeezed some more with no success, so I found small pliers and used the pliers to gently squeeze the ample near the top and after a few attempts, the "vial" broke. I could see the broken vial in the ampule. I had cleaned the window as instructed and also the holder that I glued to the window. I applied the activator as instructed to the window and the mirror holder. I waited 5 minutes as instructed. I then applied the glue to the holder, making sure the holder was in the proper position and held against the window for 1 minute. I could actually see the glue harden around the edges of the holder. After 1 minute the holder appeared to be firmly affixed to the window. I slide the mirror in place and made several adjustments on the mirror with absolutely no movement from the holder now firmly affixed to the window. This was yesterday. All appears to be a go with the mirror now firmly attached to the window.

I bought this after failing to attach a mirror with Permatex 81844 Professional Strength Rearview Mirror Adhesive . Here's what I did to replace my rear view mirror: 1. Trace the orientation of the metal button on the outside of your windshield with crayon or washable marker. 2. Remove any old glue residue from the windshield and metal button (from your rear view mirror) with a thin razor blade. Anything thin and flat will do. 3. Use sandpaper on the metal button to help the glue adhere to it. Sanding a quick cross-hatch pattern on the button should be enough. 4. Put latex gloves on. 5. Wipe the button and the area on the windshield with isopropyl alcohol to remove anything left over. Don't touch the windshield or metal button with your bare hands at this point (your skin's oil can interfere with the glue, hence the gloves). 6. Wait a few minutes for the alcohol to dry. 7. Open the adhesive kit and break the included glass vile. Apply the contents within the glass vile to the area on the windshield and on the rear view mirror's metal button. 8. Wait a few minutes for it to dry. 9. Open up the glue. ONLY apply to the rear view mirror's button (about a third of a dime's size). QUICKLY attach the button to the mirror. If you wait, the glue may not stick. This step is important. I waited with the Permatex 81844 Professional Strength Rearview Mirror Adhesive because I thought letting it get tacky would be better (like with most glues), but it doesn't work with this glue. Just attach the button to the mirror as fast as you can and hold it there for a minute. PLACE IT IN THE CORRECT ORIENTATION. It'll be a nightmare if you get it wrong. 10. Wait at least 15 minutes if you are in a rush to get the mirror up. I waited 24 hours before I attached my mirror. Voila! That's how I did it. The Permatex adhesive probably would have worked if I didn't wait for it to get tacky. Also, wait for a hot day so your windshield is warm. I think this helps with the bonding (not 100% sure). A little heat from a heat gun will help too if this is true. I think my car will break down before the mirror falls off again.

The instructions were not clear so I went to the product website and found a video that showed me how to properly administer the glue so I could glue the metal puck to the windshield. I followed the instructions closely, used a razor to clean the glass. After 24 hours I attempted to mount the mirror to the glass. and the mirror fell off. This product was a failure.

I found it works great! And just a dab will do. Follow the instructions, and in no time, your rearview mirror will be back in place and functional! Bond quickly and hopefully will keep the mirror in place for years!

It fell off in demon hot direct sunlight after 6 years. I expected to never have to replace it. I'm buying the same thing since I'm selling the car in 3 months.

修理工場でガラス交換と言われたBMWですがこれ1本で解決しました。 ガッチリと固定されて安心できます。 修理代数十万円の代替としては素晴らしすぎます！

Bought this gasket maker for my project truck and it is highly recommended for those that need a gasket in a pinch!

Been a couple months now and send to be holding well. Just happy to have a rear view mirror again

さすが本物。少面積でも確実に接着します。説明書が英語で分かりにくく、アンプルを割って使ってしまいました。

20時間でくっつくとの事だったのですがつかなかったので、2度お問い合わせしたのですが、2週間たっても全く連絡いただけません。 こんな対応はじめてなので驚いています。
