Preparation:
Ensure that the surfaces to be joined are clean, dry, non-dusty and free of oil and wax.
Previously varnished surfaces can also often be joined, but a thorough rub down with emery/glass paper is essential and a test area is advised.
Dusty concrete/cement floors may need to be sealed - ask for advice.
Application:
Flooring: Best applied to the substrate with a notching tool - ideally approx 0.01" (0.3mm) at 0.39" (10mm) centers.
Once spread, the adhesive should remain "wet" and workable for approximately 20 minutes but this does depend in part on the absorbency of the materials involved. If in doubt, a test area is advised. Only cover an area which can be finished within this timeframe. Press the floor covering firmly into place. Remove traces of wet adhesive with a damp cloth.
Joinery: Use as normal, apply with a brush or knife/spatula;preferably clamp until hard dry (min. 8 hrs). Remove excess with adamp cloth.
Avoid use in temperatures below 41°F (5°C), above 77°F (25°C), or in direct sunlight.Coverage:
Varies considerably with the absorbency of the materials to be joined, but approximately 40 Sq Ft per Quart.
Health & Safety:
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash off splashes with water. Keep out of reach of children.
