  • power grab and bond…stick up signs resolution?

    Posted by Cheryl Smith on May 16, 2012 at 7:49 am

    Hi there everypeep
    I was in a sign shop and they displayed a ‘glue’ type material which was black and they said would stick anything to anything even in the rain…which was perfect for a job I have to do next week…but they had sold out and told me it took two weeks to come in and they havent ordered any…gezz.
    Firstly I have to stick correx to concrete then diabond to perspex…in a contact way so we are not left leaning against the stuff for an hour til it sticks and then it slides slowly off to 45 degrees never to be removed again…
    you get the picture…
    these are not massive signs…and one is in a frame so it can support itself.
    Is there a supplier of this stuff around or another alternative which would work just as well…or better?
    HELP…greatly appreciated as I am installing next Thursday…
    Cheryl

    Cheryl, if I am unsure what adhesive to use for bonding different substrates or I would like to know about the properties of an adhesive I give Eurobond a call. They do a wide range of adhesives & are always very helpful.

    Tigerseal is used a lot in the automotive industry from what I have been told but obviously has other applications, wouldn’t know what they are though.
