NON-WARRANTY “Except for a warranty that materials substantially comply with the data presented in Manufacturer’s latest bulletin describing the product (the basis for this substantial
compliance is to be determined by the standard quality control tests generally performed by Manufacturer), all materials are sold “AS IS” and without any warranty express or implied as
to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, patent, trademark or copyright infringement, or as to any other matter. In no event shall Manufacturer’s liability for damages exceed
Manufacturer’s sale price of the particular quantity with respect to which damages are claimed.”
SURFACE PREPARATION:
Abrade and clean surfaces before bonding. For best results, a chemical wipe of surfaces with a clean solvent (e.g. Acetone) works best
to remove grease, dirt, or dust.
DIRECTIONS FOR CARTRIDGE USE:
Place cartridge into the dispense gun. Before attaching the mix tip, dispense a small amount of adhesive to ensure proper
flow on both sides. If there is a restriction, use a pointed object to clear any blockage. Once blockage is cleared, dispense a
small amount to verify flow.
Attach mix tip. Begin pumping the adhesive through the mix tip. It is advisable to dispense a small waste shot of material to
ensure both A & B are mixed properly.
When finished dispensing, leave the mix tip attached. Adhesive in the tip will cure, creating its own seal for storage should
there be remaining adhesive in cartridge.
Remove used mix tip when using cartridge again. Repeat steps above to dispense more adhesive.
COLOR VARIATIONS:
The color of the base material may vary slightly from batch to batch due to raw ingredients. Color variations will not affect the
cured physical properties. Exposing the material to various conditions such as heat and UV light will alter the color of the cured
system. Color stability is not guaranteed. This product can be pigmented, but you may see more color shift when using lighter
pigments.
STORAGE:
Store at ambient temperatures, 65-80 F (18-27 C). Sealed packages will have a shelf life of 3 months from date of shipment when
properly stored at recommended temperatures. Purge opened containers with dry nitrogen before re-sealing.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with skin using protective gloves and protective clothing. Repeated or prolonged contact
on the skin may cause an allergic reaction. Eye protection is extremely important. Always use approved safety glasses or goggles
when handling this product.
IF CONTACT OCCURS:
Skin: Immediately wash with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. It is not recommended
