Customer Questions

Approximately how many square inches of surface area of glass will a 1.3 ounce kit bond together?

Roughly a 6 inch x 6 inch area. The smaller kits are more for small jobs like jewelry and crack repair.

Can hxtal be applied to a glass surface that has been mirrored? For example, to adhere a metal mount to mirrored glass.

Yes, but the weak spot of the joint will be the mirroring on the glass and not the HXTAL. The HXTAL will bond to the mirroring but the mirroring may shed from the glass over time.

Can I use this on the edge of functional bowls - to seal those minute holes you can get doing drop vessels. These will serve as soup bowls, I would just fill the pin holes on the edge from cutting off the rim.

HXTAL has not been tested or approved by the FDA for food safety so we can't recommend it for this type of purpose. It will seal the holes nicely, but it cannot be sold as food safe.

can hxtal be used to secure a crack in a fused glass bowl?

Yes, Hxtal will stabilize the crack and minimize its appearance.

What is the shelf life of this product if tightly sealed and properly stored? Also, I leave in the desert southwest, and keep my house at 78-82 degrees during the summer, so should I store it in a refrigerator?

HXTAL Corp gives the material a one-year warranty, but we've had customers using the same batch for up to eight years without any issues. Part A of HXTAL can handle temperatures up to 100 degrees F without any issue. Still, Part B is more susceptible...
