Stormsure Flexible Repair Adhesive is a polyurethane based adhesive and can be used in situations that demand extremely high durability, strength and flexibility. The degree of elasticity offered allows for use for both static as well as for more flexible bonding and sealing purposes. These adhesive types are formulated from polymers and solvents.
Stormsure is a liquid clear polyurethane-based (PU) adhesive that has been specifically developed to provide strong and reliable bonding to a wide range of materials. The glue is transparent so it won't normally discolour the objects you need to join.
It also offers complete water resistance and allows sanding and painting when it has dried completely. Polyurethane glue can also fill and even out inconsistencies in the surface you use it on. Characteristics like these, and numerous others, make this type of adhesive an essential tool that is well suited for a wide range of bonding applications.
This glue increases its volume when curing allowing it to fill irregularities. It is resistant to humidity (Class D4), shock and vibrations and temperature variations.
- Stormsure can be used as either an adhesive to join two surfaces together, or as a surface sealant when spread over just one surface.
- Bonds to virtually all surfaces. It allows bonding wood, concrete, stone, metals, laminate, plastics, glass, PU, and most flexible natural and man made fabrics on themselves or in combination. It can also be used to glue models, flexible fabrics, inflatable items, waterproof items, brickwork, joinery and a huge range of other things too.
- Reacts with moisture to polymerize and cure which provides very strong and waterproof bonding.It can be used indoors and outdoors and will last for a long time under water too.
How to use:
- Always check for compatibility on fabrics in an inconspicuous area before making a major repair
- Surfaces to be bonded must be clean and free of dirt (dust, grease, etc.).
- Apply glue to one of the surfaces to be bonded.
- Assemble immediately.
- Press strongly and immobilise for at least 10-12 hours.
- Complete curing time: 10-12 hours. Resistant to temperatures from -30°C to +80°C.
TIP: Store partly-used tubes in a deep freezer. Warm up to room temperature before re-use. Cured clear adhesive may change to a pale yellow colour when exposed to bright light.
The Science
In the case of Stormsure adhesive – the liquid glue will start to cure when it is exposed to even the smallest amount of water vapour in the air. This initiates a chemical chain reaction which will continue until all the glue has cured. The glue should be used at room temperature (15°C- 25°C for best results). Do not use below 5°C. If the glue is too cold the it may appear white and waxy. - Just warm it up until it is a transparent liquid again and it will work fine.
This adhesive is a single component moisture curing product. It has 70% solids content and will only shrink slightly as it cures but this helps to create a very strong and tight bond on most surfaces. It can be used to fill gaps and holes.
