Instructions for use
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
The surfaces to be bonded must be dry and free from grease and dust.
The surfaces to be bonded must fit closely together.
Metal surfaces must be cleaned with spray gun solvent prior to application.
Stir the adhesive well.
Apply an even film of adhesive on both surfaces crosswise with a strong brush or spreader for coating large surfaces.
Porous materials must be coated twice; the second time after the first layer is dry.
When the coat of adhesive is just tacky (20-30 minutes) and does not longer transfer to your finger upon touching, the surfaces can be brought together.
Take care to position the materials accurately, because once the joint is made, they cannot be adjusted by sliding.
Apply pressure. For small surfaces firmly tap the surfaces with a rubber hammer. For larger surfaces roll with a pressure roll.
The use of clamps or press is suggested. The pressure must then be sufficiently high and evenly applied to the entire surface.
REMARKS
Do not use at temperatures below +5oC. At low temperatures care must be taken that the temperature of the adhesive and of the surfaces to be bonded is higher than the ambient temperature. Cold materials have a strong tendency to attract the moisture present in the surrounding air. Moisture on the adhesive film may have a negative effect on the bond and will lead to unsatisfactory results.
Bumps and gaps reduce the contact surface therefore will lead to unsatisfactory bonding results.
Air bubbles can be avoided by rolling the material during fixing specially for large surfaces.
