Wood glue
WOOD GLUE
Balanced viscosity and good penetration into the wood structure, very high adhesion on wood and wood products, white when wet and transparent after drying
Introduction
Wood glue is a water-based product for joining wood and wood products. In its liquid state the glue penetrates the pores, vessels and cellular structure of the wood surface and, after drying, forms a continuous film that is transparent and colourless and is not visible at the joint; it also has enough flexibility not to become brittle and fail under impact, vibration and minor movements caused by changes in ambient moisture and temperature.
Applications
- Joining all kinds of natural wood and wood products including chipboard, MDF, plywood, fibreboard and wood veneers
- Handicrafts and marquetry
- Modelling and model making
- Making furniture, cabinets, wooden doors and windows, and interior decoration
- Veneering and edge banding
- Mitre joints and tongue-and-groove joints
- Handicrafts and marquetry
- Modelling and model making
- Bookbinding, cardboard work and household wood repairs
Main features
1. Very high adhesion. 2. White when wet and transparent and colourless after setting. 3. Free of organic solvents (safe for the environment and people). 4. Flexible film, resistant to impact and vibration
Directions for use
Surface preparation: surfaces must be clean, dry, smooth and free of dust, grease, oil, sanding dust and loose particles. The wood surface must not be too damp; high moisture reduces the setting speed and the final strength of the joint. Surfaces must fit together exactly; wood glue is not designed to fill gaps and joints. Stir the glue container before use.
Method of application:
- Apply the glue evenly in a thin layer to both surfaces with a brush, spreader or roller.
- Place the two pieces together and adjust them.
- Hold the joint under constant, uniform pressure for about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Wipe off excess glue squeezed out of the joint with a damp cloth before it has fully set.
- Final strength is reached after 24 hours.
- Sanding, finishing and painting should be carried out after complete setting.
Warnings
- Keep out of the reach of children.
- Store in the original packaging with the lid closed, in a dry, covered place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, at a temperature of +5 to +35 degrees Celsius.
- Protect the product from freezing.
