PREPARATION AND APPLICATION

Ensure that the surfaces to be bonded are smooth, clean and free from dust or other deposits. Wood, plywood, laminated plastics should be of uniform thickness. Some dense hardwoods may require sanding before bonding. For best results the materials to be bonded and the ambient conditions must be above the minimum film forming temperature (MFFT) of the adhesive.

Woodstikk® D3 PVA can be applied with many suitable decives; e.g. spreading machine, glue roller, serrated trowel, glue brush, etc. Generally single-sided glue application is sufficient. Double-sided application is recommended for hard and exotic timbers. Pressure should be high enough to ensure the contact of the parts over the entire area of the joint. The final bond strength according to the stressing groups will be achieved after 7 days.

Wood and wood-based materials are natural products. Unpredictable discolouration may, in some cases, appear on different types of wood or to be related ot the type of pretreatment.
