It is possible to attach large pieces of plastic, laminate, wood, plywood or canvas to each other.You apply this glue to either side of the object because it's designed to attach to itself.Ensure you choose the right glue for the job at hand, as these are available in a wide range of applications, sprays and tubs.
Step 1: If you are using wood, plywood or other rough surfaces, you need to sand both surfaces.
Dust can be wiped up with a shop vacuum and tack cloths.Both surfaces have to be dust free.It is a good idea to vacuum in the workspace.
Step 2: Clean the surfaces.
If the item can't be washed with mild detergent and water, use a solvent to remove oil and dirt.The surfaces need to be dry.
Step 3: The workspace needs to be at least 65 degrees F (18 degrees C) for the ambient temperature of the items.
To find out more about the temperature requirements for the glue you are using, read the package.
Step 4: If it's rented, ask for directions.
Small jobs can be done with hand held spray applicators.Medium to large jobs are ideal for high volume, low-pressure applicators.Automatic spray applicators are ideal for large jobs.They will need bigger air compressor.Care is required for the storage and use of pressurized cylinders.
Step 5: When working with glue, wear a mask, gloves, and goggles.
Strong chemicals can be in the glue.
Step 6: It is a good idea to practice spraying a practice item.
Once you are comfortable applying one coat at a time, you can start working on your project.
Step 7: Put your surfaces on worktables or saw horses.
The surfaces have to face up to apply the glue.
Step 8: Put a coat of glue on the glossy surfaces.
Let it dry for 30 minutes after spraying it.The surfaces require two coats of glue.
Step 9: If you want to apply a second coat to the glossy surface, use a uniform coat.
Allow it to dry for 10 to 30 minutes, or the amount indicated on the package directions.It needs to dry a bit before it can adhere.You have to wait four to 24 hours before bonding.The act of bonding is smoothing the air bubbles out.
Step 10: The surfaces that need exact positioning should be placed on top of the spacers or dowels.
Use a lot of parallel spacers.Place your other surface on top of the spacers.
Step 11: The top item should be held in place by an assistant.
The top surface should be set on the bottom surface.
Step 12: Put uniform pressure on the two surfaces.
Start in the center and work your way to the edges.
Step 13: A three-inch (7.) is what you should use.
Try a pinch or nip roll.
Step 14: After the surfaces have been rolled, trim the sides.
If you have done a good job of applying pressure, you can trim the edges with power tools or machinery.
