Avoid excessive water exposure during the initial cure and follow temperature guidelines for best results.

Question 8

How should I store and handle this adhesive, and what about its shelf life?

Accepted Answer

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Pay attention to any manufacturer guidance on shelf life and re-sealing to maintain performance.

Question 9

Do I need a primer or any special substrate preparation before applying Kerapoxy Adhesive?

Accepted Answer

Prepare the substrate by ensuring it is clean, dry, and free from contaminants.
