Liquid nails: application, advantages
Liquid nails are the mounting glue that appeared on the Russian market in the nineties. The building glue differs from the usual in the presence of a fine fraction filler. The basis of liquid nails is rubber in combination with polymers and special clay.
Types of liquid nails
They produce two types of mounting glue: on water and neoprene.
Liquid neoprene nails, made on the basis of organic solvents, have high strength and are resistant to low temperatures. This type of glue has a sharp odor and is toxic. When working with it, wear gloves and constantly ventilate the room.
Application
Liquid nails are designed to fasten building materials, and do not need to make holes, as is the case with conventional nails. The glue is applied by dots or narrow strips using a gun or a construction syringe.
Working with liquid nails requires accuracy. The glue must not get on foreign objects. If this happens, you need to try to remove it as soon as possible. To do this, use a white spirit and a soft spatula. If the glue is already dried, you will need a sandpaper or a hard spatula.
Benefits
What are the advantages of liquid nails? The use of glue allows not to spoil the fastened surfaces. Do not drill holes in hard materials. Nails are easy to use: they are easily applied with the supplied gun or mounting syringe. Versatility and high anti-corrosion properties are the most important qualities that the mounting adhesive has. Liquid nails are used to bond parts from different materials and can be used in any situation.
