Foam-Cure(TM)FOAM-CURE(TM) is a silicone based adhesive that works very well on EPP and EPO foams. It is crystal clear and cures to a more flexible consistency than CA. It is, however, not instant bonding like CA and there is no accelerator to speed it's curing. To obtain a faster initial bond when bonding two pieces, FOAM-CURE(TM) can be applied to one piece and after the two are joined, they can then be pulled apart. After letting it air dry for about ten minutes, FOAM-CURE(TM) will act like a contact cement when the parts are rejoined, resulting in enough tack strength to allow the next steps of assembly. Full strength is reached in 10-12 hours. FOAM-CURE(TM) works with all foams and will actually bond most other materials. It will bond wood and plastic to foam and is a good canopy glue. FOAM-CURE(TM) does not, however, cure flexible enough to act as a hinge for aircraft control surfaces. Its limitations occur when bonding large areas of two non-porous materials. FOAM-CURE(TM) requires exposure to air for drying. If one tried to bond, for example, a half-dollar coin to glass, over 90% of the adhesive would never cure, since the solvent it contains would have nowhere to evaporate. A small amount of denatured alcohol can be mixed into the Foam-Cure to make it thinner.
Works Best On: - EPP Foam
- EOP Foam
- Clear Canopy
- Paper and Crafts
DIRECTIONS: Cut off tip of nozzle. Apply to one part before joining. Use tape to hold parts in place during cure. For faster curing, pull the joint apart and let Foam-Cure(TM) air dry for 5-10 min before rejoining the parts. This results in enough tack strength to allow the next steps of assembly. Full cure takes 10-12 hours. Foam-Cure(TM) works on all foams, especially on EPP and EPO, and will bond a porous surface to non-porous materials. Foam-Cure(TM) is also an excellent glue for clear canopies, and will also bond paper. If needed, denatured alcohol can be used to thin or clean up uncured Foam-Cure(TM). Replace cap after use.
