Application Advice
Firstly, ensure both bonding surfaces remain clean, dry and free from dust, grease and loose material. Next, apply an even coat of adhesive to both surfaces using a brush or serrated spreader. Then, allow the adhesive to become touch dry, which typically takes between 10 and 20 minutes depending on temperature and humidity.
Once the adhesive reaches the correct tack level, carefully align both surfaces before bringing them into contact. Apply firm, even pressure across the entire bonded area to achieve maximum adhesion. Since the bond forms immediately, accurate positioning is essential.
Afterwards, allow the adhesive to develop its full strength over the next 24 to 48 hours. Consequently, you will achieve a durable, high-strength bond capable of withstanding demanding everyday use.
