Does Veneer-Art require a special adhesive?
While Veneer-Art does not specifically require a special type of adhesive, the strength of the bond between Veneer-Art and its substrate determines the amount of stress that may be transmitted to the substrate by the product. Gluing Veneer-Art with the use of a hot or cold press is the safest and preferred method of application. Conventional adhesives normally applied to high-pressure laminate are recommended. When gluing with a hot press, do not exceed 140°F (60°C). Above that temperature, there is a risk of harmful tension that could affect adhesion. When no laminating press is available, standard contact adhesives may be used. It is crucial to ensure excellent coverage of both surfaces to be bonded, and to apply a pressure of 50 to 75 pounds per square inch to the assembly. In either case, always consult and closely follow your adhesive manufacturer’s directions.
