- Position The Items Carefully, Still Keeping Surfaces Apart With Dowels Or Heavy Craft Paper And Working From One Edge Press Surfaces Firmly Together.
- Secure Bond By Running A Roller Over The Bonded Surfaces Or Else By Hammering The Surface From The Centre Outwards Using A Padded Block.
- For Bonding Other Materials, Apply As For Laminated Plastics Above. When Small Surface Areas Are To Be Joined A Wet Bond May Be Used. Simply Apply Gel Grip To One Surface Then Bring The Surfaces Together And Clamp Until Dry.
Handy Tips:
- Care Should Be Taken To Test Plastics Prior To Use As Solvents Present Will Attack Some Grades Such As Polystyrene And Sheet Vinyl.
- Keep Container Sealed When Not In Use.
- Coverage - Up To 5 Square Metres/Litre (Bonded Area 2.5 Square Metres/Litre) Depending On Porosity Of Surfaces And Thickness Of Applications
- Ensure The Surface Is Clean & Dry Before Applying The Product.
- Clean Up While Wet, Adhesive Can Be Removed Using Mineral Turpentine. Cured Adhesive Is Very Difficult To Remove. Tools And Other Equipment On Which Gel Grip Has Dried May Be Cleaned By Soaking In Toluol Or Lacquer Thinner. Excess Adhesive On The Face Of The Jointed Materials May Also Be Removed With Solvent, But Care Should Be Taken That The Materials Themselves Are Not Damaged By The Solvent.

- Avoid Skin Contact As Solvents In Gel Grip Have A Degreasing Effect And May Result In Irritation.
