5.0 Hardening times

6.0 Subsequent treatment 

• Reseal areas which are cavity-sealed as standard.

• 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 min. 15°C object temperature (corresponding to approx. 18°C room temperature).

  or 1 hour in the spray booth (spray booth temperature 80°C/object temperature 60°C).

• When using radiant heaters, make sure that the object temperature does not exceed 85°C. Excessively high temperatures will destroy the adhesive.
• Remove contamination caused by adhesive residue immediately.

  Hardened adhesive can only be removed mechanically.

7.0 Disposing of adhesive 

• Hardened adhesive is disposed of as normal waste.
• Empty glue cartridges are disposed of as normal waste.
• Non-hardened adhesives and mixtures of adhesive and solvent and the like must be disposed of as hazardous waste.

These regulations apply to the Federal Republic of Germany. 

For other countries, comply with the (possibly differing) nationally applicable regulations.
