Preserves the authentic sound
Unlike some synthetic glues, this does not dampen the vibration of the silk. The sound remains pure and resonant. A must-have accessory for any serious Guqin player.

Essential for silk string players
This glue is a lifesaver for my old silk strings. It stops the fraying at the bridge without changing the tone. The application is very easy with the small brush included.

Good protection against wear
My third string always used to fray quickly near the tuning peg. After applying this glue, it has lasted three times longer than usual. Highly recommend for maintenance.

Great value pack
Getting two bottles is perfect because a little goes a long way. I've been using this on my student's instruments as well, and it holds up great during practice sessions.

Works well but needs patience
Effective product that extends the life of expensive silk strings. You have to let it dry completely before playing, otherwise it feels a bit tacky. Overall very satisfied.

Traditional formula done right
I appreciate that Boyuntang uses traditional ingredients like Bletilla and fish maw. It bonds perfectly with the silk fibers and doesn't leave any white residue.
Q: Is the bottle cap secure for travel?
A: Yes, the bottles feature a screw-top cap designed to prevent leakage. However, we suggest placing them in a sealed bag if traveling by air due to pressure changes.
Q: Can this glue be used on nylon-core silk strings?
A: Yes, this glue is suitable for both traditional twisted silk strings and modern nylon-core silk strings commonly used on Guqins.
Q: Does the glue change the pitch of the strings?
A: No, when applied correctly in a thin layer and allowed to dry fully, it adds negligible weight and does not alter the pitch or intonation.
Q: What is the shelf life of this product?
A: If stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, the glue remains effective for up to 2 years from the date of manufacture.
Q: How often should I apply this to my strings?
A: We recommend applying a thin layer only when you notice signs of fraying or fuzziness, typically every few months depending on how frequently you play.
