Fast Drying Crystal Glue Multi-polyester Marble Glue

Properties: STURDMAX® Crystal Glue are highly liquid or gel-like 2-component products based on UV-stabilized, Unsaturated polyester resins dissolved in styrene.The

Products are distinguished by the following qualities:

- wide field of application due to different consistencies

- no colour of their own, therefore suited for light, mainly transparent- crystalline natural stones

- due to slow hardening and low tensions bigger defects, comers and edges can filled

- easily polishable

- very good adhesion on natural stones

- resistant to water, petrol and mineral oils

Application Area:   STURDMAX® Crystal Glue are mainly used in stone processing

industry for filling and bonding light or white, transparent-crystalline natural stones s.a.

Thassos,Carrara,Onyx, Palisandro,Estremoz or the like. Due to the liquid,colourless-transparent appearance waterclear bonding can be made which maintain the stereoscopic structure of the stone. By adding little quantities of STURDMAX® Polyester Colouring Pastes or STURDMAX®

Polyester Colouring Concentrates to STURDMAX® Crystal Glue, corners and edges can be

modelled or bigger holes can be filled. Thus an appearance very similar to the stone or bonding joints which are almost invisible can be achieved. When working with crystalline natural stones we recommend mixing some crushed granular material in the filler to imitate the crystal

structure of the stone.

Instructions for Use:

1. Thesurface tobe treated must be clean, completely dry and roughened.
2. Colouringispossible by adding STURDMAX® Polyester Colouring Pastes or STURDMAX®

Polyester Colouring Concentrates up to max 5%.Dilution is possible by adding Thinner S up to 8%.

3.Add 1 to 2 g of hardener B liquid (25-50 drops) to 100 g of filler.

4.Mix both components thoroughly. The mixture can be worked for approx. 12 to 24 minutes (20°C).

5.After approx. 6 to 8 hours the treated parts can be exposed to strain, after 12 hours approx. they can be further processed (grinding, milling,drilling).

6.The hardening process is accelerated by heat and delayed by cold.

7. Tools can be cleaned with Nitro-Dilution. 

Special Notes:

-Use Liquid Glove to protect your hands.

- Waterclear products only harden with Hardener B Liquid.

- Hardener portions higher than 2% cause more or less intensive discolouring.Hardener portions less than 1% and low temperatures considerably delay hardening.

- Permanent influence of heat (>50     C) causes

Discolouring and reduces the bonding properties.

- Non-durable resistance of bondings which are Frequently exposed to humidity and frost.

- Only moderate adhesion on fresh, alkaline building materials (e.g. concrete, concrete bricks).
