CA Glue Chip Repair Kit for Natural Stone
Hot Stuff Thin (2 oz) CA Glue Hot Stuff Original is a thin CA glue with a viscosity similar to water and no surface tension. When you have parts that fit exactly together, first get them in position, then run this instant glue along the crack, and it will wick right in.
If you have tight-fitting joints of non-porous material, Hot Stuff thin will give you the best results as it will not create any extra space between the pieces, and since you get the parts aligned before applying this instant glue, you can be sure they will be perfectly in place when the glue cures.
Drawing on tried‑and‑tested cyanoacrylate chemistry and a stone‑safe accelerator, this compact kit turns 10‑minute call‑backs into 3‑minute, invoice‑worthy fixes.
Hot Stuff™ Thin CA (2 oz)
A water‑like 2 cP adhesive that wicks instantly into hair‑line fractures and tight seams without creating a visible glue line. Typical set in 3–5 s when paired surfaces are pressed tight .
Special T™ Thick CA (2 oz)
A 1 150–1 500 cP, honey‑viscosity formula that bridges gaps and rebuilds missing corners. Expect 60 s self‑cure (or ≈20 s with accelerator) even when little clamping pressure is possible .
CA Glue Gel (20 g)
Thixotropic gel for vertical edges or overhead spots where run‑off is unacceptable. The gel’s body lets you sculpt the fill slightly proud for flush grinding after cure.
NCF Stone™ Accelerator (6 oz, aerosol)
Stone‑specific catalyst engineered to eliminate the dark halos that general accelerators can leave on light granites and marbles. Active for several minutes, so you can treat multiple repairs in one pass. Ground‑only shipping applies due to pressurized contents .
Hot Tips™ Precision Spouts (4 × 20 mm)
Swap‑in nozzles that keep cyanoacrylate paths clear and let you lay a micro‑bead exactly where you want it .

Step‑by‑Step Chip Repair
1. Clean & Prep the Chip
Degrease with an evaporating solvent or pH‑neutral stone cleaner. Dry thoroughly; moisture retards cyanoacrylate polymerization.
2. Choose the Right Viscosity
-
Thin for razor‑tight fissures or edge chipping with intact fragment.
-
Thick or Gel for lost‑corner rebuilds, shell‑outs, or porous limestone edges.
3. Fit, Fill & Wick
For intact chips, position the fragment dry; allow Hot Stuff Thin to wick along the seam. For missing material, knife Special T Thick or Gel slightly proud of the surface.
4. Accelerate & Cure
Hold the repair steady and mist NCF Stone from 8–10 inches. A translucent frost appears—this is normal and will polish out. Wait the recommended fixture time.
5. Finish & Polish
Flush‑cut any proud adhesive with a sharp razor or 320‑grit stone file. Progress through 400→600→800 grit wet‑dry pads, then final‑buff with a stone‑specific polishing powder to restore gloss.
Storage & Shelf‑Life Guidelines
-
Freezer Storage: Unopened CA bottles remain factory‑fresh up to 12 months. Thaw 30 min before use to avoid condensation .
-
Opened Bottles: Keep at 68–77 °F, cap with a fresh Hot Tip, and avoid freezer cycling. Expect 6–9 months of reliable viscosity.
-
Accelerator: Store upright, away from direct sunlight. Shake briefly before each use to maintain propellant balance.
Compliance & Handling
Because NCF Stone ships as a pressurized aerosol, the complete kit ships via ground service only. Observe local haz‑mat guidelines when transporting unused cans . Always wear nitrile gloves and ANSI‑approved eye protection when dispensing cyanoacrylates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the repair discolor white marble?
No. NCF Stone is formulated to eliminate the blooming that generic accelerators cause on light stones .
Can I tint the adhesive?
Yes. Mix stone dust or micronized pigments into Special T Thick or CA Gel before acceleration. Keep pigment load <15 % by volume to maintain bond integrity.
How large of a chip can I rebuild?
Field tests show reliable fills up to a U.S. nickel‑sized void (~21 mm Ø) when you layer Special T Thick in 2 mm lifts, accelerating between lifts.
Is the kit food‑safe once cured?
Fully cured cyanoacrylate is considered chemically inert; however, always finish flush and polish to a glass surface before food contact areas.
What if the nozzle clogs mid‑job?
Swap in a fresh Hot Tip; four are included for this reason, saving you time and adhesive waste.
