Physical Properties

Coverage (maximum): Approximate length of bead according to bead diameter

Trowel Coverage: 40-50 sq.ft. per gallon using a v-notch trowel with notches 3/16" wide x1/4" deep and spaced 1/2" center to center. 

Application Guidelines

Application Temperature 40°F. to 100°F.

Service Temperature Range 0°F. to 120°F.

Method of Application Cartridge/caulking gun

Working Time Approximately 20 minutes for a 1/4" bead

Working Surfaces Surfaces must be clean and free of any material that may deter adhesion. Apply adhesive to only one of the surfaces to be bonded. NOTE: For subfloors, nail or screw each sheet as recommended by the American Plywood Association.

Cleanup Clean with water while adhesive is wet. Scrape off dried excess with a putty knife. Remove residue with mineral spirits or equivalent solvent. Follow solvent vendor's precautions when using solvents. NOTE: Test solvent on an out-of-the-way area to make sure it will not mar or attack the surface.

Limitations

GREENchoice Heavy Duty is not designed for continuous submersion or for use on mirrors. When applying over paint, wallpaper, ceramic tile or other thin non-porous materials, sanding or scraping to penetrate that surface will allow drying and increase bond strength. This product cannot be used to bond one non-porous surface to another because such a situation will prevent drying. GREENchoice Heavy Duty works well on most metals, however, for heavy metal or steel applications, we recommend GREENchoice Premium Polyurethane. For best results, store adhesive above 40°F.
