Liquid glues mainly made from sap of Gum Arabic called “Arabica Glue” until the middle of 1960s. 

Its bottle was convenient to use: turn the bottle upside down, then glue was soaking through its mesh without smearing hands. Yamato combined this convenient bottle concept, advantage of synthetic resin glue, and special sponge cap developed by Yamato.

This is why Yamato named this product as “Arabic Yamato”.

“Arabic Yamato” launched in Oct.1975. Since then, we have been improving and making it better. Arabic Yamato, our long seller liquid glue, has been added the various types according to various purposes.

Arabic Yamato is so special with its sponge cap.

When glue get into your eyes, do not rub eyes and wash off with a lot of clean water. Glue attached with skin can be washed off with water. Though in rare cases, it might cause itch or rash for delicate skin.

For washable clothes, soak in warm water and wash off lightly with hands. Glue can’t be washed off with dry cleaning.
When take these clothes to laundries, tell them that PVAL is attached.

Because of strong adhesiveness, glue is easy to dry. To avoid drying, firmly tighten the outer cap after use. Not using for a long time may cause sponge cap harden and outer cap may be hard to open. Recommend “Bottom-Up” type (NA-60) for light users, as its sponge cap is less likely to dry than other types. For heavy user, refill types (NA-960, NA-48) are recommended.

Take off the sponge cap from the bottle and soak in hot water about 50 ℃/120 ℉. (Be careful for burning.) Take off the sponge from sponge cap and wash off with hands lightly. For solidified glue inside the outer cap, treat in the same way or scape out with tools such as spoon.

The screw thread may be worn then hard to tighten these caps. Please purchase a new one.

Before using, take off blue plug. When refill with NA-960 or NA-48, please cut the tip of the nozzle before use and close with the attached spiral cap. And tighten the sponge cap with the attached *opener.

Make sure glue is not stuck around sponge cap or inside of the outer cap. Take off sponge cap from the bottle and wash off with warm water, then tighten firmly again as the sponge cap fit tightly with the gutter of the outer cap. (NA-60 is reverse screw type preventing from loosening both caps together.)
