Apply a squeeze to the surface and allow it to set for 2-10 minutes before putting the surfaces together. Make sure you fit in place the first time because there is a permanent bond that forms immediately.

I have no idea how your product works.I have attempted several times to stick a side of a tennis shoe to its upper part and it is impossible. Instructions in the pachage are vague in any language. What do you mean by repair? sticking soles, sealing holes, etc,; is it necessary to clamp parts? Ca you help?

I've been using shoe goo to keep my favorite pair of Fallens going for months. I have to share this knowledge that I discovered through trying various things to spread the goo around, from metal, plastic spatula type tools to ice cubes to...the backs of stickers (on the right track) to the ultimate spreading tool... grip tape backing! You know, the slick paper that you peel your grip tape off of. What a coincidence, skateboarders who probably use shoe goo the most, also have at their disposal (or not) a perfect material for spreading shoe goo out. I must add that a directional tapping works much better than smearing. but do it quick before it starts to set. Once it starts to crumble its over. -

cool, this sounds simple and pretty cheap. Though, I have some Vans slip-ons with holes in the canvas on each big toe, will the goo work on something like that?
