Preparation of Substrates:
Ideally solvent cleaning and roughing of sheet stock is recommended, but good results can be obtained by wiping the talc off the rubber with a brush or cloth. Best results are obtained with solvent washed stock to clean, dry, cement, wood, or metal. Approved cleaning solvents include Heptane, Hexane, or white gas.

Application Instructions:
Apply bonding adhesive by rolling to clean, dry, grease free surfaces. Both surfaces to be bonded must be coated with the bonding adhesive. An open time of five to sixty minutes is recommended before assembly depending on ambient conditions. The adhesive should be allowed to dry until it does not stick to a dry finger touch.

Post Application Clean-Up:
Toluene is excellent for post application clean-up.
