How to use
Preparation
- Surfaces to be bonded must be smooth and finished to fit closely together; for dowelled or mortice and tenon joints, the clearance must be less than 0.25mm. Surfaces must also be clean, dry, and free from dust or loose material.
Application
- Apply an even film of exterior wood glue to one of the surfaces to be bonded.
- In applications where greater bond strength is required, coat all surfaces.
- When bonding dowels or tenons, it is preferable to apply the wood adhesive to the hole or mortice so that the wet adhesive is carried into the socket when assembly takes place.
- Assemble the parts whilst the adhesive film is still wet.
- After the parts have been assembled, maintain light pressure on the bond line during the initial setting period, using equipment such as vices, jigs, clamps, or dead loads.
How to remove
A moist cloth will remove the ‘wet’ adhesive but be careful not to spread a thin film onto nearby wood, which might later be varnished or painted. It is sometimes safer to allow the adhesive to dry, then mechanically remove the excess.
FAQs
How do I clean the nozzle on Wood Glue Exterior?
To clean the nozzle on EVO-STIK Wood Glue Exterior, first close the bottle and wipe away any excess glue with a clean, damp cloth.
If the nozzle becomes blocked with dried glue, unscrew and remove the cap from the bottle. Twist the nozzle open and use a toothpick or similar item to push the dried glue back through the nozzle. Rinse the cap with warm water, allow it to dry, then screw it back onto the bottle.
How long does Wood Glue Exterior take to dry?
EVO-STIK Wood Glue Exterior reaches full cure within 24 hours at 20°C.
The time required to develop full bond strength depends on factors such as temperature, humidity, bonding pressure, and the type, porosity and moisture content of the substrate. As a guide, beech substrates at 7°C should be clamped for at least 12 hours, whereas at 20°C and 55% relative humidity, clamping time may be reduced to just over 1 hour.
What is the open time of Wood Glue Exterior?
The open assembly time for EVO-STIK Wood Glue Exterior depends on substrate porosity and ambient temperature, but is typically between 5 and 10 minutes.
