Pinkgrip will stick just about anything on a building site that needs sticking. Its amazing grabbing strength not only removes the need to pin under the workpiece to prevent slumping, but its revolutionary initial 'Direct Bond' eliminates the need for double stick methods. Pinkgrip can be used inside and outside and adheres to just about every building substrate.
Areas For Use
Bonding dado rails, architrave's and skirting
Fixing parquet and cork flooring.
Fixing wall cladding direct to internal wall surfaces or timber battens.
Fixing battens directly onto walls without fastenings.
Bonding carpet gripper systems to most floors without the need for nails or tacks.
Bonding stair nosing to concrete or wooden stairs.
Fixing polyester, wood, PVCu or metal thresholds.
Fixing nameplates, plastic boxes, decorative frames, wall sockets and junction
boxes to most surfaces.
Securing aluminium or other skin panels to the framework or portable industrial
buildings and
caravans.
Limitations
· Do not use on damp surfaces: use EVERBUILD GUN A NAIL.
· Do not use as a mirror adhesive: use EVERBUILD POLYMER MS
· Do not use on polystyrene/Styrofoam/expanded polyurethane - use EVERBUILD
GUN A NAIL.
· Heavy materials (greater than 10kg per sq meter) must be
supported
for at least
8-24 hours depending on size of item.
· Solvents present may attack sensitive plastics. If in doubt, test a small area first.
· Only suitable for overhead applications when used in
conjunction with mechanical fixings.
Surface Preparation
The surfaces to be glued must be clean, dry and free from dust, grease and other contaminants. New concrete or plaster should be allowed adequate time to dry and mature. If this is not possible, use EVERBUILD GUN A NAIL.
Porous or friable surface should first be primed with dilute contact adhesive and allowed to dry.
Application
· All surfaces to be sealed must be sound, clean, dry and totally dust free.
· Cut the tip of the cartridge taking care not to damage the thread.
· Apply nozzle and cut cleanly at an angle of 45 degrees. Apply using a standard sealant gun.
DIRECT BOND METHOD
Apply a 6mm bead in a zig zag along the length of the item to be fixed. For panels, centre beads at 350mm max.. Press into place and apply an even pressure onto the entire surface. Leave to cure for 24-48 hours. For extremely heavy items, provide temporary support whilst curing. Where gap filling is necessary, for example battens against an uneven wall, mark the areas where there is a larger gap and apply a thicker bead in these areas.
DOUBLE STICK METHOD
Apply adhesive as above. Immediately press firmly into position to ensure adequate transfer of the adhesive and then pull away to affect the adhesive transfer. Allow adhesive to dry apart for 5 minutes before pressing finally into position. Allow to dry for 24 hours before subjecting to traffic.
· Tools and excess adhesive can be cleaned using white spirits or turpentine substitute.
