Bartoline PVA is a multi-purpose adhesive and sealer suitable for a variety of jobs.Will bond most materials including wood, brick, ceramic tiles, carpet, cardboard,polystyrene, fabric, leather and other similar porous substrates.
For use as an Adhesive:To achieve good adhesion, ensure that the surfaces are sound, dry and clean. Jointhe bonding surfaces together while the PVA is still wet or tacky. Bartoline PVAshould be used neat in woodworking applications. Joints should be clamped togetherto prevent movement until the bond is formed (allow 24 hours to achieve maximumstrength). When applying plaster use neat and brush onto the surface prior toplastering. Apply while the PVA is still tacky. For small cement renders combineBartoline PVA with an equal amount of water and add to the mortar mix. This willimprove adhesion and tensile strength of the cured render. For large areas dilute 3parts Bartoline PVA with 1 part water and brush onto the surface to be repaired.Apply the normal render mix before the emulsion dries.
For use as a Primer or Sealer:For sealing porous substrates (old concrete, plaster, plasterboard etc.) dilute 1 partBartoline PVA with 4 parts water and brush onto surface. This will seal the surface inpreparation for tiling or further coating.
