Application Guidelines

Application Temperature:
40°F to 100°F (5°C to 38°C)
Service Temperature Range:
0°F to 120°F
Working Time:
Approximately 20 minutes for a 1/4" bead
Prep:
Surfaces must be clean and free of any material that may prevent adequate adhesion.
Application:
Cut tip on slant for 1/4” to 3/8” bead. For subfloors, cut tip straight across. Puncture inner seal and place in cartridge gun. Apply adhesive to one of the surfaces in either a continuous or spot bead. Adhere materials within 15 minutes or before skinning of adhesive occurs. Press surfaces firmly together with a slight twisting motion. Certain large applications may require additional bracing until adhesive has dried. Note: For subfloors, apply adhesive to joists for one sheet at a time. Nail or screw each sheet as recommended by the American Plywood Association.
Cleanup:
Tools and adhesive may be cleaned with water while the adhesive is wet. If dried, tools and adhesive may be cleaned with water/acetone/vinegar mixture. Follow solvent vendor’s precautions.
Limitations:
Not designed for continuous submersion. Do not adhere one non-porous material to another since this will slow or prevent drying. Not recommended for use with mirrors.
