Hardening time

Do not move the vehicle before the adhesive has hardened  .

Check the degree of hardness of the adhesive with a fingernail.

If the adhesive cannot be pressed in any further with a fingernail, the vehicle may be moved (without engine force) for further processing applications (e.g. painting).

Vehicle strength for driving applications  is achieved after:

48 hours at an object temperature of 15°C.

10 hours at an object temperature of 23°C.

1 hour at an object temperature of 60°C.

0.5 hours at an object temperature of 85°C.

IMPORTANT: When using radiant heaters, make sure that the object temperature does not exceed 85 °C. Excessively high temperatures will destroy the adhesive.
