- General Use Instructions
- Pottery - Spread the adhesive evenly and clamp pieces together for 30-60 minutes. The bond will reach full strength in 24 hours.
- Paper and cloth - Spread the adhesive lightly and press materials together for 15 to 30 minutes or until the moisture in the bond dissipates.
- Joint Assembly - Squeeze a generous amount of adhesive over the area to be bonded, fit the joints together snugly, and clamp the assembly to stabilize the bond for 30 - 60 minutes or until the adhesive film dries.
- High Pressure Decorative Laminate:
- Follow the glue spreader manufacturer’s recommendations.
- Use a dual durometer roller (Black Bros. A2158, 16 x 1⁄2” pattern).
- Apply adhesive at 6-8 wet mils with glue spreader.
- Open time: 5 minutes
- Closed time: 20 minutes
- Press time: 30 - 60 minutes @ 40 - 50 psi (at 70°F, 45%RH)
- Allow one hour before light machining, 12 - 24 hours for heavy machining
