Substrate preparation
The surfaces to be glued must be clean, and in particular free of oil, grease or release agents.
Processing
The adhesive is applied on one side (small areas) or on both sides in a very thin, even and covering layer with a brush, spatula or roller. Absorbent, rough surfaces usually require a slightly heavier application or a second application after the first has dried.
Immediately after the adhesive has been applied, the substrates are joined together with light contact pressure. It must be ensured that the bonded materials remain in contact. If necessary, press again until a sufficient initial tack is reached and fix against slipping.
An assessment of the final strength and resistance can only be made after a few days!
Specific property
The Technicoll® special adhesive included in the set can also be used to repair minor damage to inflatable whirlpools, PVC garden pools and swimming pool liners made of soft PVC under water.
To do this, the appropriate PVC repair patch is coated with the adhesive and immediately pressed under water on the damaged area and rubbed in until the necessary initial adhesion is achieved. Air and water temperatures below +15 °C can lead to reduced bonding results!
Product information/technical data sheet for Technicoll® adhesive
Application
Bonding of flexible PVC foils to one another, as well as to rigid PVC and other materials.
Application examples
TAMI dog boxes, standup paddle boards (SUP), inflatable boats, swimming pool liners, pond liners and vehicle tarpaulins made of soft PVC. For re-gluing and repair work, PVC pipes.
