What happens here

Next, Richard sprays the CA glue activator onto the mitered edge of the second (mating) piece of crown molding. He explains that while some prefer to spray the activator directly onto the glue, he finds this method more effective. This activator instantly catalyzes the CA glue upon contact, creating an immediate and robust bond.

Goal: CA glue activator is sprayed onto the mitered edge of the second crown molding piece, preparing it for an instant bond with the glued piece.

Tools and materials

  • Crown Molding Piece (mitered)
  • Insta-Set Accelerator for CA Glues

What they say

to start with my short pieces first rather than my big long one. So I'll take that. And now here's what I do. People do this differently, but I'll actually activate the be the bead.

Then you'll just spray that on there and a chemical reaction takes place where it starts to dry instantly. Hence the name Instacure.
