Directions For Use
- Surface Preparation: Remove all dust, dirt, oil, grease, wax, loose paint, etc. Wiping with a solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK)* will aid in preparing the surface for bonding.
- Application Temperature: For best results, the temperature of the adhesive and surfaces to be bonded should be at least 65°F (18°C). If stored below 30°F (1°C), allow adhesive to warm to room temperature by placing in a warm room only (do not exceed 120°F [49°C]) followed by thorough agitation.
- Application: Stir well before using. Brush, flow or spray a thin, uniform coating of adhesive to each surface. A coating of 2.5 gms to 3.5 gms/ft.2 dry weight per surface is recommended. Porous surfaces may require more than one coat. A uniform, glossy film indicates sufficient adhesive.
- Drying Time: Allow adhesive to dry until no longer wet (maximum dry time about 4 minutes).
- Bonding Range: Once dry, these adhesives have a short bonding range (up to 8 to 12 minutes).
- Assembly: Position surfaces carefully before assembly. Bonding is immediate upon contact. Apply sufficient pressure to ensure good contact between coated surfaces. Bonded parts may be handled immediately.
- Reactivation: Greater immediate strength may be obtained by solvent reactivation. To solvent reactivate, coat both surfaces with adhesive and allow to dry tack free. Lightly wipe one surface with methyl ethyl ketone (MEK)* and complete bonding within 30 seconds.
- Cleanup: Use a solvent such as 3M Scotch-Weld Solvent No. 2* or methyl ethyl ketone (MEK)* to clean brushes immediately after use. Excess adhesive may be removed from other surfaces with 3M Citrus Base Cleaner* or equivalent.
*Note: When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources including pilot lights and follow manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use. |
