Product Information

Shelf Life

When stored at the recommended conditions in the original, unopened container, Hydrotite Adhesive has a shelf life of 15 months.

Storage Conditions

Store product at 60-80°F (16-27°C) for maximum storage life. Higher temperatures can reduce normal storage life. Lower temperatures can cause increased viscosity of a temporary nature. Rotate stock on a “first in-first out” basis.

Conditioning:

For best results the temperature of the adhesive and surfaces to be bonded should be at least 65°F (18°C). If stored below 30°F (-1°C), warm-up to room temperature in a warm room only (do not exceed 120°F (49°C) followed by thorough agitation).

Application Steps

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

Remove all dust, dirt, oil, grease, wax, loose paint, etc. When applying to surfaces other than concrete, wiping with solvent such as Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) will aid in preparing the surface for bonding*.

*When using solvents, extinguish all ignition sources, including pilot lights, and follow the manufacturer’s precautions and directions for use. Strictly follow solvent manufacturer’s warnings and instructions for use.

Mixing: Stir or agitate well before using for optimum results.
