Application Instructions:
Follow standard building and construction practices when applying SikaBond®-115 Max Tack.
Substrate Preparation:
- Ensure the substrate is clean, sound, dry, and free from contaminants like oil, grease, cement laitance, old sealants, and loose paint.
- Remove dust and friable material through wire brushing, grinding, sanding, or other mechanical methods.
For best results, follow these priming and pre-treatment steps:
Non-Porous Substrates:
For surfaces such as aluminium, anodised aluminium, stainless steel, PVC, and glazed tiles:
- Slightly roughen the surface using a fine abrasive pad.
- Clean and pre-treat using Sika® Aktivator-205 applied with a clean cloth. Wait 15 minutes before applying adhesive (within 6 hours).
For metals like copper, brass, and titanium-zinc:
- Clean and pre-treat using Sika® Aktivator-205. After 15 minutes, apply Sika® Primer-3 N by brush. Wait at least 30 minutes (within 8 hours) before applying adhesive.
Porous Substrates:
For concrete, aerated concrete, mortars, and bricks:
- Prime the surface with Sika® Primer-3 N. Wait at least 30 minutes (within 8 hours) before applying adhesive.
Note: Primers are adhesion promoters and are not a substitute for proper surface preparation. They also enhance the long-term bond strength.
Cleaning of Tools:
- Clean tools and equipment immediately after use with Sika® Remover-208.
- For skin cleaning, use Sika® Cleaning Wipes-100.
Once cured, the adhesive can only be removed mechanically.
