Applications
For bonding, laminating and repairing marble, granite, quartz and ceramic, including visible seams where a light adhesive line matters. It is useful on vertical joints because the mixed paste does not become runny.
Selection and Use
- Prepare dry, clean, dust-free bonding surfaces. Add any color before the catalyst and avoid excess tint.
- Thoroughly mix the measured paste hardener and use promptly. Do not return mixed leftovers to the container.
- The 20-minute figure is touch-dry time, not a universal full-cure guarantee. Follow the cutting/polishing interval and account for actual temperature.
