When you're working with Loctite Super Glue Ultra Gel Control, you can expect it to set pretty quickly, usually in about 15 to 30 seconds.

But, if you're looking for the bond to be as strong as possible, it's best to wait for about 12 to 24 hours. This allows the adhesive to really reach its full strength, particularly important if the bonded items will be under stress.

It's good to press the materials together during those first few seconds to get a strong initial bond. The glue is praised for its durability and impact resistance, making it a solid choice for materials like wood, metal, ceramics, and plastics.

The gel consistency also helps with better control during application, reducing mess.

However, keep in mind that while it's good for many materials, glass isn't one of the recommended surfaces for this glue, according to the manufacturer's guidelines. If you need to work with glass, you might want to look for a glue specifically made for that purpose, just to be on the safe side.

So yeah, it's fast for most materials, with a quick setup time and up to a full day for maximum strength. Just be sure to pick the right glue for the surfaces you're working with to ensure everything stays put!
