Adhesives

HOW TO USE

Do not swallow. Use in a well ventilated area. Avoid contact  with skin and eyes.  

Application  

1. Ensure surfaces are free from oil, grease and dust. Wipe off  any pooled water from wet timber.  
2. Cut cartridge tip, fit nozzle and cut to desired opening  (5mm).  
3. Apply bead along length of joist, stud or batten. On broad flat  surfaces apply beads every 40cm.  
4. Position pieces and press firmly together. Fix with sufficient  nails, screws or clamping to hold load and achieve contact  over total bond area. Repositionable for up to 20 minutes  after fitting.  
5. Allow adhesive to set (minimum 824hours**) before  removing any temporary fasteners or clamping. Use with  mechanical fasteners in high stress applications.

Contact Bond Method  

For immediate bond use contact bond method, apply to one  surface only, press together and pull apart. Allow surfaces to dry  2-5 minutes, before firmly joining. 

Flooring  

Use in conjunction with manufacturers installation requirements.  To eliminate squeaks in tongue and groove flooring, apply a  bead of Liquid Nails® Heavy Duty into groove of each board when installing.

HANDY HINTS

• **Usually a strong bond is achieved in 24 hours and continues to strengthen over 2-3 days. Cures in 7 days.

• Expect longer times for thicker applications, less porous surfaces and in cold weather. 

• #Compared to

• * pre-test plastics to determine compatibility 

• Adheres to wet/poor seasoned timber.  

LIMITATIONS

• Avoid use in tightly clamped joints eg. Cabinet making or  joinery  
• Not for use on mirrors.
• Not for metals heated by direct sunlight. Bonds weaken at higher temperatures.
• Not for Styrene Foam. 
• Do not use as the sole bonding agent for structural bonding. 
• Not for permanent water immersion.
