  • The adhesive is ready when it is no longer wet and is tacky to
    the touch.
  • Attach materials using heavy uniform pressure.
  • Adhesive should remain tacky and ready for bonding
    materials for about 30 minutes. Temperature, humidity, and dust may change open time.

  • Allow adhesive to fully flash (dry) before bonding materials.
  • The adhesive is ready when no longer wet and it is tacky to the touch.
  • Attach drainage board to waterproofed structure using heavy uniform pressure.
  • Adhesive should remain tacky and ready for bonding materials for about 30 minutes. Temperature, humidity, and dust may change open time.
