Application Guidelines

Application Temperature:
0°F to 100°F
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. Puncture inner seal and place in cartridge gun. Apply continuous bead of adhesive to studs or furring strips. Where two panels join, apply a zigzag bead so adhesive will contact both panels. Adhere materials within 20 minutes. Press surfaces firmly together for full contact with adhesive. Note: For drywall, use fasteners in accordance with local building standards. For paneling or other large applications, use finishing nails at top and bottom and brace overnight as needed. When applying adhesive overhead for ceiling applications, use 3/8” bead or less.
Cleanup:
Tools and adhesive may be cleaned with acetone or mineral spirits. Follow solvent vendor’s precautions.
Limitations:
Not designed for continuous submersion. Do not use on vinyl-coated drywall, polystyrene foam or rigid plastics. Do not adhere one non-porous material to another as this will slow or prevent drying.
