Instruction
- Preparation
- Safety first, follow the manufacture’s instructions, and wear the required PPE
- Set up in a well-ventilated area (the trays are not a well-ventilated area)
- Ensure surfaces to be bonded are clean, dry, and free of dust or oil
- Dampen the Surface:
- Lightly dampen both the surfaces with a wet cloth or spray of water
- Polyurethane glue requires moisture to cure properly
- Application:
- Apply an even layer of glue to both surfaces to better ensure no gaps are created
- Polyurethane glue expands as it cures
- Bonding:
- Press the surfaces together firmly
- Clamp the piece for 1-2 hours
- Allow the glue to fully cure for 24 hours before cutting or routing
- Clean-up:
- Wipe off any excess glue immediately with a damp cloth, before curing
- Clean up work area
- Display a completed “Hazardous Materials Storage Form” at areas where the project will be stored.
