The BNY Glue Gun is your perfect companion for DIY crafts, quick fixes, and creative projects. Known for its premium build and smooth performance, BNY ensures a professional finish every time. But to get the best out of your glue gun—and stay safe while using it—it’s important to follow a proper process. Here’s a complete guide on how to use your BNY Glue Gun with care and precision.
Step 1: Set Up Your Workspace
Before you plug in your glue gun, prepare a safe, clutter-free workspace. Use a heat-resistant mat or a scrap piece of cardboard to protect your table surface from glue drips. Keep your materials ready, and make sure there’s a power socket nearby.
Step 2: Insert the Glue Stick
Take a RABBIT glue stick (standard size, depending on your glue gun model) and gently insert it into the back of the gun. Push it in until it stops, but don’t force it. As you use the gun, the stick will slowly feed through the chamber.
Step 3: Plug It In and Heat It Up
Plug in your BNY Glue Gun and switch it on (if your model has a power switch). Wait 3–5 minutes for the gun to fully heat up. During this time, do not touch the nozzle, as it gets extremely hot. Most BNY glue guns have an indicator light to show when they’re ready.
Step 4: Test the Flow
Once heated, gently press the trigger until a small amount of melted glue comes out of the nozzle. If the glue flows smoothly, you’re ready to start. Always test on a scrap material first to ensure even flow.
Step 5: Apply the Glue
Hold the glue gun like a pen, and apply the hot glue to your desired surface. Work steadily and avoid pressing the trigger too fast—this ensures a clean and controlled glue line. Press the two materials together immediately, as the glue dries quickly (usually within 30–60 seconds).
Step 6: Reload as Needed
When the first glue stick starts to run out, gently push a new glue stick behind it while the gun is still hot. Never try to remove partially melted glue sticks—they can cause jams or damage the glue gun.
Step 7: Turn It Off Safely
Once you’re done, unplug the glue gun and let it cool completely before storing it. Never leave a hot glue gun unattended or resting directly on a surface—use the built-in stand to keep it upright and stable.
Safety Tips for Using Your BNY Glue Gun
- Never touch the nozzle or melted glue directly. Burns can happen quickly.
- Keep away from children unless supervised.
- Avoid water contact—this is an electrical device.
- Store vertically in a dry place to avoid leaking or buildup.
