Seaming Stone and Quartz with Nitro One Shot Adhesive
Seam Preparation
- Clean seam with Acetone or Alcohol to remove dust from the seam. (Joint must be clean and dry for best results).
- Apply masking tape on each side of the seam, back about 1/16 inch from the joint. (Build up 2 to 3 layers of tape).
Application
- Attach mixing tip to cartridge and dispenser. (refer to individual cartridge instructions)
- Discard the first 5-10 ml to ensure Activator is present in mix.
- Apply a bead to the surfaces to be glued together. Clamp the surfaces together and make sure you leave some excess adhesive in the joint. A gap of 1 mm or more is ideal and will provide improved flexural and impact strength.
- After the joint is clamped together, wipe off excess adhesive with a razor blade or squeegee using the masking tape as a gauge to slightly over fill the seam. Work the adhesive back and forth over the masking tape to make sure the joint and any chips are filled.
- Remove tape as soon as possible
- The curing time for the adhesive is approximately 10 to 15 minutes at normal room temperature. After the bead has cured (approx 30+ minutes) it can be scraped flush with a razor blade. Scraping the joint before it has cured will increase the effect of shrinkage in the joint and may leave the seam lower than the surrounding surface.
- If you want to enhance the color and slightly smooth the joint, apply an abrasive polishing company (by hand or with a rotary polisher) after scraping the adhesive. Top coating is not required.
Refer to MSDS for safety and handling information.
WARNING: Always wear disposable gloves and eye protection when working with adhesives or polishing compounds.
