3M 08061 Emblem Adhesive

This solvent-based adhesive permanently bonds plastic and metal emblems, rigid plastic parts, taillight lenses and trim strips for interior and exterior automotive use. It dries clear to suit transparent or translucent plastics and is ready to use directly from the tube without any mixing required.

Suited for emblem and trim bonding

The product suits owners and repairers who need a fast-setting, single-component adhesive for attaching emblems and trim to cured paint or plastic. It is not intended for buyers who require a structural adhesive for load-bearing panels or a product with a longer working time for complex alignments.

10 to 30 second working time

The adhesive offers a working time of approximately 10 to 30 seconds before it begins to set, reaching a set in about 15 minutes and a full cure in 24 hours. This short open time determines whether the applicator can position parts accurately during installation.

Questions about this item

Is the 5 oz tube the only size offered for this 3M 08061 adhesive?

The supplier title lists only the 5 oz tube, so that is the single capacity available for this product.

What does the 15 minute set time mean when I am fitting an emblem on the car?

After applying the adhesive you have about 10 to 30 seconds to position the part, then it holds firm in roughly 15 minutes and reaches full strength after 24 hours.

Does the solvent-based formula limit the materials I can bond with this adhesive?

It bonds fully cured automotive paints, metal emblems, rigid plastics, taillight lenses and trim strips for interior or exterior use, and dries clear for transparent parts.
