Cladstikk 12 Surface Bonding Adhesive

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Cladstikk® 12 is based on all the latest developments in hybrid polymer technology.

Cladstikk® 12 adhesive is used with the G2 Compact Adhesive Gun and has been used for bonding PVC and GRP wall cladding panels to walls and for bonding off solid or engineered wooden boards to subfloors.

Cladstikk® 12 can also be used for bonding synthetic grass to jointing tape.

Sizes available

1.5tr sachets (covers 3 square metres)

PREPARATION AND APPLICATION

Ensure that the surfaces to be bonded are smooth, clean and free from dust or other deposits.

CONSTRUCTION AND WALL CLADDING

Using the G2 adhesive applicator, apply the adhesive to the substrate to be bonded. Lay the substrates together and then apply adequate pressure wiht a laminate roller. Allow 24 hours for full cure.

FLOORING APPLICATIONS

The surfaces to be glued must be sound, clean, dry and free from dust, grease and other contaminants. Existing floors must be free from all polish/wax. Prime/stabalise friable concrete/anhydrite and floors with residual adhesive with G91 primer before application.

Subject to recommendations made by the flooring manufacturer, subfloors should be subject to 28 days of maturing and should have a maximum of 3% moisture content or 70% equilibrium relative humidity before using this adhesive.

The room in which the floor is being installed should be in excess of 150C and register an ambient humidity between 40% and 70% while the adhesive is being used. For moisture contents between 3.1% and 7%, or over 70% relative humidity, a suitable primer and moisture barrier should be used.

Do not use this adhesive above these recommendations.

Very porous or friable surfaces should first be primed with G91 Primer and allowed to dry.

Underfloor heating must be turned off 48 hours before and 48 hours after the adhesive has been applied.

It is extremely important to monitor ambient conditions throughout installation, as any change in these conditions could cause issues such as condensation, which could directly impact the success of the bond even though the substrate reading may appear correct.

FLOORING: the parquet flooring MUST be acclimatized for several days in the room where it is to be installed. Leave in original packaging during this period.

All installations and sub floor preparations must be carried out in line with the relevant British or international standards. When using the G2 applicator, insert sachet into the G2 barrel and cut tip of sachet. Fix nozzle head to barrel and follow instructions set out in G2 Instruction Manual.

Position blocks/planks whilst adhesive is still tacky (within 30mins) and tap into final position with mallet and block, removing uncured adhesive with cleaning wipes. (Caution - test compatibility with lacquer finished block first).

One 1.5ltr sachet will bond approximately 3m2 when applied as directed.

Cladstikk® 12 has been successfully used to bond KömaCel and KömaDur PVC cladding when applied in accordance with these recommendations.

Slight moistening of substrates improves the curing rate and gap filling properties.

Handling and Storage

Clean machines, equipment and tools with white spirit before the adhesive dries.

Cladstikk® 12 should be stored in the original sachets cool, dry conditions between 15°C and 30°C. Ensure good ventilation. In these conditions it has a storage life of 9 months. Storage outside these parameters will dramatically reduce shelf life. Opened sachets must be closed airtight and used up as soon as possible (within 1 month).
