Choosing the right option

Using it

CRC's directions: surfaces must be clean and dry, and pre-wiped. Spray an even layer on both surfaces, adjusting the nozzle for the spray width you need. CRC's page says to spray from 20-25cm, and to use the can and surfaces at 8°C or above.

Wait 5-10 minutes until the adhesive is tacky. Contact is immediate, so position accurately, then apply maximum overall instant pressure. For an extra strong bond, CRC's page says to apply two coats with 5 minutes between.

Test in a typical bonding situation before coating the full area. After use, CRC's page says to clean the valve by inverting the can.

Storage and handling

CRC says to store indoors at a temperature between 5°C and 30°C. Do not puncture, incinerate or store above 50°C.
