Product Description
3M Scotch Super 77 Spray Adhesive 7716 is a high-tack, high-coverage, fast-drying aerosol adhesive that has been a staple of 3M's adhesive lineup for more than 50 years. The clear, photo-safe formula sprays in a fine mist for even coverage and creates a strong, lasting bond on a wide variety of lightweight materials.
The aggressive initial grab gives you a quick set, while the long bonding range of 15 seconds to 15 minutes provides plenty of open time to reposition parts before the bond becomes permanent. Low soak-in helps maintain a clean, professional appearance with soft, non-dimpling glue lines.
Key Features
- Fast-drying with aggressive initial tack
- Long 15 second to 15 minute bonding range for repositioning
- Low soak-in resists bleed-through on porous materials
- High solids content (25%) for greater coverage per can
- Soft, non-dimpling glue lines for a clean finished look
- Translucent dry color and photo-safe formula
Typical Applications
- General industrial assembly, maintenance and repair
- Attaching foils, carpeting and lightweight foams
- Bonding paper, cardboard, felt and fabric to metal or wood
- Picture framing, mounting displays and signage
- Installing fiberglass insulation and drywall corner beads
- Acoustic panel installation in home studios
- Crafts, hobbies, photo albums and school projects

Application Instructions
How to Use 3M Scotch Super 77 Spray Adhesive
- Prep the surface. Make sure both bonding surfaces are clean, dry and free of dust, grease and oil.
- Mask the work area. Cover surrounding surfaces and the floor with paper or a drop cloth to catch overspray.
- Shake the can well for about one minute before use, and shake occasionally during application.
- Test the spray on a piece of scrap material to confirm the pattern is even and the nozzle is clear.
- Apply the adhesive. Hold the can 6 to 8 inches from the surface and spray a light, even mist. For most jobs, coat both surfaces for the strongest bond. Coat one surface only for a lighter, slightly repositionable hold.
- Allow flash-off time. Let the adhesive dry for about 15 to 60 seconds until it feels tacky but not wet.
- Join the surfaces within the 15 second to 15 minute bonding window and press firmly with even pressure. A roller or hand pressure helps remove air pockets.
- Clear the nozzle. When finished, invert the can and spray for 2 to 3 seconds until only clear gas comes out. This prevents the tip from clogging for next use.
- Cleanup. Remove wet overspray with a citrus-based cleaner or mineral spirits. Always follow the safety and ventilation instructions on the can label.
* Multiple cases may be shipped per package in order to minimize the charge for shipping.

Question & Answers
User Reviews
hot melt rubber (synthetic)
Offers the widest range of application flexibility available. Exhibits excellent processing performance whether manually or automatically applied. Has superior tensile strength, adhesion properties and holding force which ensures consistent, reliable seals. Hot melt adhesive will bond faster to a surface which is referred to as quick-grab or quick-stick. It typically has higher tack (will feel stickier to the touch), but is also softer. It has lower heat resistance, shear resistance, and sometimes UV resistance than an acrylic adhesive. NOTE: it is called hot melt because the adhesive is applied hot by the manufacturer and then hardens as it cools (you do not need to apply heat to the tape yourself).
natural rubber
Properties are similar to that of hot melt rubber, but natural rubber often holds where other adhesives won't (recycled fibers, dust, cold, heat and heavy loads). It provides good overall adhesion and moisture resistance.
acrylic
Offer excellent performance, especially for applications in temperatures less than 40°F and greater then 120°F. It provides excellent clarity, has high shear strength, is usually more permanent/durable even when exposed to moisture, and it ages well over extended periods in fluorescent and sunlight. Since it remains clear for the life of the application and does not yellow over time it is ideal for applications such as sealing white cartons. While it has good initial adhesion it does take 24-48 hours to cure and to achieve its maximum bond strength (has gradual adhesion buildup). Another difference between hot melt rubber and acrylic adhesive is if you fold tape over making the two adhesive sides touch the acrylic adhesive will remain attached to the carrier (e.g. paper, film) while a hot melt adhesive will stick to itself and pull off of the carrier. It is the best choice for clarity, UV resistance and aging characteristics.
silicone
Is great for extreme temperature applications since silicone adhesive can work in continuous operating temperatures from -100°F to 500°F. They also exhibit good chemical resistance, retain electrical properties, and remove cleanly with little or no residue.
zinc oxide
Zinc oxide based adhesive formula is a skin-friendly adhesive which is commonly used on sports medicine tapes.
Thickness, AKA caliper or gauge, refers to the distance from one surface of a tape backing, or adhesive, to the other.
1 mil = 1/1000 of an inch
Examples: 1/16 inch = 62.5 mils; 1/32 inch = 31.25 mils
Lower gauge gloves are heavier - have thicker construction, fewer stiches knitted per inch and offer less dexterity.
Higher gauge gloves are lighter - have thinner/finer construction, more stitches knitted per inch and offer more dexterity.
Gloves offered typically runs from 7 to 18 (12 and 13 are in the middle of the scale).
