GT20 Wrote:What is the best way to clean white glue (Basebond) from sfs? I currently use the mag slide technique and it works great until the piece starts to get a little older. After a couple of month of usage, the glue gets stuck in the lace, turns white, and wont' come out during a mag slide. It's trapped in the little squares of the lace.
Thanks for the help.
I've been using BaseBond (in the front) for almost 2 year now and I normally get a ton of use from the units, typically 10 months or more.
If you're having problems with BaseBond, then you're doing something horribly wrong
- I assume that you're using lace release or 99% alcohol to release the unit.
If not, that's problem 1.
If you are, you must give it a few minutes to work that is release the lace from the BaseBond.
If done correctly, the unit will come right off and all, of almost all of the BaseBond will remain on your head.
The lace should have, at most, maybe, just a few little spots of it.
- Mirror slide the remaining itty bitty spots of BaseBond that may be on the lace, immediatly, while the lace release/alcohol is still wet. This works perfectly with BaseBond
How much BaseBond are you using when you attach ?
Three (3) thin layers, with a minute or so drying time between coats, works well for me, easily giving me a weeks hold between removals.
