Sticky Ass Glue and Sticky Jack Glue are incredible tools for bonding dozens of materials (also known as substrates) together. Since both SAG and SJG are known as Moisture Curing Adhesives, in the case of bonding materials, using a little bit of water will help in the curing (drying) process.
(Moderation is a virtue though, as too much moisture will dilute the strength of Sticky Ass Glue. Please don't go drenching the materials with a power washer!)
Bonding Ceramic to Ceramic: Because ceramic is a porous substrate, enough moisture exists in its makeup and the air around it to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large pieces of ceramic together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water. On larger surface areas though, just run a damp cloth over the surface lightly to speed up the curing process.
Bonding Ceramic to Brick: Because ceramic and brick are both porous substrates, enough moisture exists in their respective compositions and the air around them to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large materials together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water. On larger surface areas though, just run a damp cloth over the surface lightly to speed up the curing process.
Bonding Ceramic to Concrete: Because ceramic and concrete are both porous substrates, enough moisture exists in their respective compositions and the air around them to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large materials together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water. On larger surface areas though, just run a damp cloth over the surface lightly to speed up the curing process.
Bonding Ceramic to Dry Wall: Because ceramic and dry wall are both porous substrates, enough moisture exists in their respective compositions and the air around them to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large materials together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water.

Bonding Ceramic to FRP Board: Because ceramic and FRP Board are both porous substrates, enough moisture exists in their respective compositions and the air around them to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large materials together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water. On larger surface areas though, just run a damp cloth over the surface lightly to speed up the curing process.
Bonding Ceramic to Glass: Because ceramic is a porous substrate, enough moisture exists in its makeup and the air around it to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. However, since glass is a nonporous substrate, very little water exists in its makeup. In cases of bonding a large piece of ceramic to a large piece of glass, we recommend lightly misting the glass with just a bit of water. However, less is more when it comes to using water with our glue so don't soak either of the materials.
Bonding Ceramic to Granite: Because ceramic and granite are both porous substrates, enough moisture exists in their respective compositions and the air around them to make the use of water unnecessary in most cases. In fact, using water may actually cause the glue to expand a bit, particularly if you're gluing two small areas together. So unless, you're gluing two large materials together (ex: 4' x 8' pieces), skip the water. On larger surface areas though, just run a damp cloth over the surface lightly to speed up the curing process.
