How can I insure adequate coverage using a brush grade adhesive?
Begin with applying the adhesive with a high quality roller cover or brush. Roller covers should have a short to medium nap; brushes should have solvent-resistant bristles. The adhesive should cover 100% of the surfaces to be bonded. When the surfaces are dry enough to bond, they should have a glossy appearance, similar to that of dried, glossy paint. If the dried surface looks flat (non-glossy) like dried flat paint, too little adhesive was applied; a double coat will be necessary. Very porous substrates may require double coating.
