Universal strong dual-component epoxy adhesive for repairing metal, pottery, porcelain, glass, pearls, precious stones and various synthetics. Temperature resistant, water resistant, chemical resistant and paintable.
Application
Suitable for: Repairs to metal, ceramics, porcelain, crystal, glass, pearls, precious stones and various synthetics (polyester, bakelite, formica, rigid polystyrene and acrylic glass (Perspex®).
Not suitable for: Polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), PTFE and silicone rubber.
Handling
Before use: Working conditions- Only apply at temperatures between +10 °C and +35 °C. Product cures by mixing the resin and the hardener.
Surface requirements: The surface must be dry, clean and free of dust and grease.
Preliminary surface treatment: Degrease parts to be bonded with methylated spirit. Roughen smooth surfaces (sandpaper).
Tools: Mix the components by means of the supplied mixing bowl and spatula.
Mixture ratio: 1:1
Coverage: 1 ml = approx 10 cm² at a film thickness of 1 mm
Directions For Use:
Press out an equal amount of both components onto the enclosed mixing tray.
Mix these two equal parts well with a spatula until a mixture is obtained with a homogeneous colour.
Apply the mixture, which at room temperature (+20 °C) remains toolable for about 1.5 hours, as a thin layer on one of the two materials.
Join the materials and keep them in place for 7 hours.
Be careful not to move the parts before the adhesive has cured.
Resin and hardener must not come into contact with each other unless for usage.
Advice
Some types of synthetics can not be joined such as polyethylene and polypropylene. Use a piece of adhesive tape in order to keep the parts in place while the adhesive is curing.
Points of attention
Close well after use.
For optimum performance it is important to create a larger amount of adhesive and mix it very well.
Curing time depends on the temperature.
Adhesive does not cure below +5 °C.
Stains/residue: Remove wet stains immediately with warm water and soap. Cured adhesive residue can only be removed mechanically.
Storage conditions: Store in tightly closed packaging in a dry, cool and frost-free place.
