Surface preparation
An important condition is that all surfaces to be bonded must be dry and clean. They should be manually cleaned of dirt, dust, grease, and washed if necessary. It is advisable to clean with fine emery cloth (grain index - 100).
At the end of the preparatory work, degrease the base with 888 Ultra U35 and allow the product to dry completely.
Material application
Without some skill, gluing the car upholstery will be quite difficult. To achieve the desired result, you need a building hair dryer.
The procedure for working with glue marked "blue", "red" is as follows:
- grease the plastic with glue with a thin brush for 2 to 3 layers, until a characteristic shine appears, each layer should dry for 20 to 30 minutes;
- gently apply one layer of the product to the material to be glued, without passing space - for this purpose it is better to use a spray gun;
- you need to keep the spray from the surface of the product by 30 - 40 cm;
- apply leather, suede to a plastic surface - glue at this time does not have a strong stickiness, so you can carefully decompose the material;
- after half an hour use a hair dryer with heating up to 300 - 380 degrees, warming up in small areas;
- In parallel, carefully smooth, level the surface, be sure to use a protective mitt.
Glue 888 Ultra + has some features in the application. Its activation should occur no later than 12 hours after application to the surface. In the future, the composition will become solid, its heating with a hairdryer will not produce results. Pressing is done until the temperature drops, all actions are performed in small areas.
to contents ↑It is important to install the hair dryer nozzle at such a distance so as not to burn the skin, tissue. After finishing work, you should carefully review the entire upholstery to exclude the presence of non-glued areas. The latter must be reheated with a hairdryer.
Glue consumption
If you take into account one layer of the product, a liter is enough for 3-5 square meters of skin and a plastic surface. This volume should be multiplied by the estimated number of layers, in the presence of highly porous materials, multiplied by a factor of 1.5. It is better to buy funds with a margin so that in the process of work you do not encounter any inconvenience.
Peeling off material and removing glue
It happens that the skin or other materials were glued unevenly, incorrectly. There is a need for peeling. It is much easier to do this if adhesives 888 Ultra Red, 888 Ultra Blue were used. It should start heating at a temperature of about +400 degrees from the edges of the material, which will allow the glue to be brought into a liquid state, after which it will be possible to separate the coating. A new layer of glue is not needed, just smooth the coating or eliminate inaccuracies in the pasting.
If a problem occurs near the edge of the coating, you can solve it easier. You need to wet a cotton swab in a U35 cleaner, gently dissolve the glue and tear off the material. After it is warmed up and re-glued.
888 Ultra Plus does not respond to warming up because it contains a hardener. It can only be peeled off after a short period of time after application with U35. Unsuccessfully glue is removed from the surface using this thinner-cleaner.
