Description
Overview

Applications
For countertop fabrication, stone lamination, rodding and stone-to-stone bonding. Select knife grade for retaining a bead or filling a contained joint, rather than using the flowing version by default.
Selection and Use
- Tint a test mix when the joint will be visible. Transparent adhesive does not guarantee an invisible seam in every stone.
- Measure and mix using the knife-grade product directions. A 30-minute set is not a statement that the joint can immediately carry its full service load.
- Choose the kit around the required batch volume and keep unused components separate.
