Application Techniques

1. Tropical Hardwood Epoxy Glue comes in a two part pack, A & B
2. Mixing by volume: 1:1
3. Mixing by weight: 10 parts A to 12 parts B
4. For best results mix in one container, transfer to a second container & mix again
5. Allow to sit 10-20 minutes before use
6. Allow to sit on wood joints with exposed end grain or exceptional roughness for at least half the pot life before assembly
7. Soft rubber pads under clamp faces will maintain an even pressure on the joint as excess glue squeezes out

Larger mixed quantities and sun exposure can shorten pot life

Note:

• Correct surface preparation is 50% of adhesive bonding success
• Not recommended for curing in cold weather below12∞C
  In cold weather conditions use our Glue-It in preference to our Tropical Hardwood Glue when maximum flexibility is critical to resist shock or vibration or to absorb the stresses for dissimilar woods and cross-grain joints.
• Use Glue-It if high heat resistance is required.
• Use Tropical Hardwood Epoxy for joints that must be capable of disassembly. A heat gun at 65-80 degrees C. will usually soften the joint enough.
• Where a more liquid consistency is required for plywood sheet laminating or
  for fibreglass layup, our Laminate-It is appropriate.
  

For cleaning up excess before the glue has gelled, use Senseal's dedicated Clean-It.
