APPLICATION INFORMATION

Everbuild Everflex AC95 Technical Information

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

All surfaces must be clean and dust free. All loose or flaking surface coatings, and old sealant and mastic joints, should be removed before application. Highly porous substrates such as new plaster should first be primed with Everbuild 501 PVA Bond diluted 1:4 with water. Surfaces may be slightly damp, but not wet. NOTE: THIS WILL SLOW THE CURE.

APPLICATION METHOD / TOOLS

Fit cartridge into a 1 L mastic gun. Cut nozzle to required length and puncture inner membrane seal before applying.
Use as a sealant: Always cut nozzle to a size slightly larger than the gap to be sealed. Apply to gap, slightly overfilling, and finish smooth with a caulking tool or filler knife. Clean up any excess with a damp cloth within 30 minutes of application.

Use as an adhesive for direct bonding to large surfaces: Cut nozzle to provide a bead of approximately 9-10 mm diameter, pierce inner membrane and apply a continuous bead to one surface at 250-350 mm centres. Apply board immediately to surface and tamp down. Provide temporary support until cured.

Use as an adhesive for bonding to studding: Apply a continuous bead to studding and apply board immediately into position. Do not apply more than one board’s width of studding at one time. Provide temporary support until cured.
