Soudabond BLOCKS is a versatile and high-strength adhesive designed for bonding non-load bearing walls and an array of construction substrates. To achieve optimal results, it is imperative to follow these detailed instructions covering substrate suitability, surface preparation, application method, and cleaning procedures.
This adhesive is adept at bonding various materials including concrete, masonry, stone, drywall, wood, and many others.
It is particularly suitable for constructing partition walls, screen walls, cellar bars, and stone shelves using rectified bricks such as aerated concrete, sand-lime brick, and others.
However, it does NOT adhere to polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), PTFE, and silicone. A preliminary test is recommended to ascertain the compatibility and adhesion quality on the intended substrates.
Before application, ensure that all surfaces are stable, clean, free from dust, grease, oils, or any separating agents. Surfaces can be building moist but should not be wet (avoid water film or standing water).
Cover adjacent areas to protect them from soiling. In windy conditions, take necessary precautions to prevent contamination of nearby objects or persons. For indoor use, ensure good ventilation.
A PU Foam Applicator Gun is required for use of this product. Wear protective goggles and gloves for safety. Attach the can tightly to the Applicator Gun and shake vigorously about 20 times downwards to mix the contents thoroughly, ensuring optimal adhesive quality.
For extended periods of non-use, re-shake the gun to maintain adhesive quality. Adjust the adhesive bead diameter using the gun’s adjusting screw (open more as the can empties).
Hold the gun vertically during application, maintaining a 1 to 2 cm distance from the nozzle to the substrate. Apply two adhesive beads approximately 30mm in diameter and 50mm away from the edge on horizontal joints.
Join and align the bricks within 2 to 8 minutes, depending on the ambient temperature and humidity. If bricks are repositioned, apply new adhesive beads.
After application, allow the excess adhesive to cure before removal with a spatula. The adhesive achieves full strength after a minimum of 12 hours.
Clean tools and surfaces with Soudafoam Gun & Foam Cleaner or Swipex Cleaning Wipes before the adhesive cures.
After curing, use Soudal Cured PU Remover or mechanical methods for removal.
For the can, maintain a temperature between +5 °C and +25 °C, optimally between +15°C and +25 °C. If necessary, slowly adjust the can to the optimal temperature. Ensure the surface temperature is between 0°C and 35°C for effective application.
