Tips:

  1. Avoid contact with water for the first 3 hours.
  2. If you have a hairdryer, you can blow on the jelly glue for 10 seconds after applying it to enhance the adhesive effect.
  3. Using jelly glue can only last 1-2 weeks, and you should avoid contact with water during this period. If you want a longer-lasting application, please use solid adhesive gel.
