Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free Adhesive is a high strength adhesive that bonds most building materials. This solvent-free product is ideal for filling gaps on uneven walls and can be sanded and overpainted. It is suitable for interior applications only.
Preparation:
All surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dust, grease and other loose material
All paints should be removed from surfaces where the adhesive will make contact. Gloss paint should be abraded using sandpaper to form a keyed surface
Metal surfaces, such as stair nosings, should be degreased with detergent and water or an appropriate cleaner
New concrete and plaster, especially if a water vapour barrier is incorporated, should be allowed to dry fully before using Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free
Sound very porous surfaces, which are difficult to free from light dust, should be primed with a mixture of PVA Building Adhesive 1 part by volume with water 5 parts by volume. This must be allowed to dry completely before continuing
Application:
Best results are achieved by applying beads of Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free onto one surface only
Apply a 6mm diameter “zigzag” bead along the length of the item to be bonded
On large panels apply bead around the edge and across the panel at approximately 400mm intervals
Then using a twisting action, press the other surface into position to maximize surface contact and grab. Press surfaces together firmly for 30 seconds
Some support may be necessary for up to 24 hours
Cold, damp conditions or thick layers of adhesive will greatly extend drying times
Stair Nosings, Window Frames etc.: Apply Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free in 5 - 6mm diameter beads to the nosings only. Small stair nosings will require two beads and larger nosings three beads. Immediately press nosings into position, allow at least 24 hours to dry before subjecting to traffic.
Wall Panels: When fixing direct to wall surfaces, apply Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free as a bead of approximately 6mm diameter around the back of the panel, 50mm from the edge and in horizontal lines approximately 450mm apart. When fixing to a battened wall apply 5 - 6mm beads of adhesive to the front of the battens. After application, immediately press the panel to the wall or battens. A strong bonds achieved in around one hour, but temporary support, e.g. panel pins, may be necessary if the panels are heavy, warped or if gap filling
Battens: Apply Evo-Stik Liquid Nails Solvent Free in 5 - 6mm beads to the back of the battens and, using a twisting action, press them onto the wall. The battens should be fixed vertically at 400mm (or closer) intervals with horizontal battens top and bottom, depending on the weight to be supported- High strength, instant grab adhesive
- Can be sanded, overpainted and used on most building materials
- Solvent free
