Watch makers need to protect their fingers while working with watches. With this, latex finger cots and protectors may be used. They typically come in four standard sizes to match all sizes. These protectors protect during valeting, applying oils, mixing cleaning solutions etc and also help with keeping fingers clean. These cots have anti static properties and therefore are tough. They're pink in colour, have textured tips to afford more sensitivity and therefore are powder free. To suit easily, they may be rolled with the rim. Loctite Low Strength screw lock adhesive is a thread lock adhesive substance; it prevents loosening of parts because of vibrations. It's available in a ten ml bottle with a long nose spout and a screw top for easy application and storage. This adhesive may also be used to seal against leakage and corrosion. It sets in 6 hours and exhibits functional strength after that. This adhesive has a wide operating temperature range from -55 c to 150 c. There is a nutlock adhesive within this type which is stronger.

The Poly Watch glass polish is a scratch removal paste and could be used effectively on acrylic watch glasses. Plastic watch crystals are inclined to get scratched easily and due to this, the visibility is reduced combined with the watch looks getting spoilt. It is very difficult to replace the crystal because plastic watches generally have sealed cases. But it's simple to smooth out these scratches using the poly watch paste. When it's applied to the watch crystal with a cotton wool at the right pressure, it dissolves a little fraction from the top layer from the plastic; this plastic fills in the scratches thus smoothing on them. Even deep scratches can be taken off by repeated application. A 5 ml bottle lasts for ten applications. With this particular solution, you'll be able to keep watches with plastic watch crystals like new. Vitabond UV watch glass adhesive can be used in glass bonding during watch repair. It's safe on stained glass, crystal glass etc. To get rid of superglue all types of surfaces, the Superglue debonder may be used.
