There are a few things to consider when bonding and repairing things with Industrial Clear:
-
Surface preparation: The surface you are bonding or repairing should be clean, dry, and free of any contaminants or debris. Any oils, dirt, or other contaminants can weaken the bond or cause the epoxy to fail.
-
Mixing: Industrial Clear comes in two parts Resin to 1 part Hardener. These parts must be mixed together in the correct ratio to cure properly. Be sure to follow the instructions for mixing the resin and hardener.
-
Setting time: Industrial epoxy resin has a limited working time of about 30 minutes, so it's important to work quickly and efficiently once the resin has been mixed. Make sure you have all of your tools and materials ready before you begin the repair.
-
Clamping: Depending on the repair, you may need to use clamps or other restraints to hold the pieces in place while the epoxy cures. This can help ensure a strong and durable bond.
-
Finishing: Once the epoxy has cured, you may need to sand or file the surface to achieve a smooth, even finish. Use a fine-grit sandpaper or file to avoid damaging the repair.
-
Safety: Epoxy resin can be toxic if ingested, and gets stuck to everything, including your skin and clothes, so it's important to follow proper safety precautions when handling it. Wear gloves, and old clothes protect yourself from the stickyness!
When applied correctly, Industrial Clear is the strongest glue out there!
