The packaging of the TECPO windscreen adhesive creates a mixed first impression. The colour scheme is clear and reduced to the essentials, clearly highlighting the key product information. At first glance, the packaging conveys an impression of robustness and high-quality workmanship, which emphasises the quality of the product. The adhesive is packaged in a user-friendly cartridge that enables precise and clean dispensing. In addition to the adhesive itself, clear instructions are included on the tube, which are easy to understand even for inexperienced users. Unfortunately, however, the font is too small. Overall, the packaging gives a professional impression that inspires confidence in the quality of the product.

The application of TECPO windscreen adhesive is consistently convincing. During application, the adhesive presents itself as a homogeneous mass that enables even distribution. Even after curing, the adhesive is highly elastic, allowing it to adapt to different material movements. In addition, the easy visibility of the adhesive after application contributes to an aesthetic result. No unsightly residues or stains are left behind, which contributes to a clean and professional finish. The sophisticated composition of the product facilitates application and ensures an optimal end result.
