How to use this contact spray adhesive
For best results, you should apply this glue to two surfaces that need to be bonded together when the temperature of the adhesive and the surfaces falls between 60°F – 80°F (16°C – 27°C).
Use with adequate ventilation, and when possible, we recommend shaking the canister well before using it.
Before use, please check compatibility by spraying a small test patch of the adhesive on the substrate; this glue may degrade some substrates.
Do not use this adhesive on flexible PVC substrates that contain plasticisers, polystyrene, PE, or PP materials.
Spraying recommendations
- Make sure that surfaces are clean, dry and free from dirt, dust, oil, loose paint, wax or grease, etc…
- Spray about 10-20 cm (4″ – 8″) away at a 90° angle to the surface, applying a uniform, even coat of adhesive to obtain 80% to 100% coverage of the surface. If necessary, spray another coat of this adhesive in areas that appear to need more adhesive.
- Spray both surfaces to be bonded, one surface vertically and the other surface horizontally
- Allow 2 – 3 minutes for the adhesive to tack off until no adhesive transfers to the knuckle when touched.
- Adhere surfaces and press together with adequate pressure.
- roller is recommended to apply a uniform pressure to achieve maximum strength.
- Allow 24 hours for the adhesive to cure fully.
- If the spray tip clogs, unscrew the spray tip from the gun and clean with a solvent such as lacquer thinner or acetone. Do not use a pin on the spray tip orifice
