SM20 Adhesive - Only for SM20 system

The SM20 Adhesive is a high-strength contact adhesive specifically engineered for use with the SM20 panel system. Designed to handle high load-bearing requirements, this adhesive ensures a secure and reliable bond between the heavy SM20 panels and the wall surface. With its exceptional performance, the SM20 Adhesive is an integral component of the SM20 system, providing durability and stability in even the most demanding applications.

What is SM20 Panel Adhesive?

SM20 Panel Adhesive is a premium-grade, high-strength contact adhesive formulated for use exclusively with the SM20 acoustic panel system. Each SM20 panel weighs 15kg, making it crucial to use an adhesive capable of handling heavy loads while maintaining a strong and lasting bond. Supplied in a 500ml can, the SM20 Adhesive is specifically designed to work seamlessly with SM20 panels, ensuring the system's optimal performance.

Where can the SM20 Adhesive be used?

The SM20 Adhesive is ideal for:

• Bonding SM20 Panels: Designed exclusively for use with SM20 panels in both residential and commercial soundproofing applications.
• Masonry Walls: Provides excellent adhesion to concrete, brick, and other masonry surfaces.
• Plasterboard Walls: Suitable for attaching panels to timber-studded walls covered with plasterboard.
• Party Walls: Ensures a secure and seamless fit for soundproofing party walls in shared buildings.

How to use the SM20 Panel Adhesive?

Follow these steps for optimal results:

1. 1. Preparation:
      • Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free of dirt, oil, grease, or dust.
      • Shake the adhesive can thoroughly before use.
   2. Application:
      • Adjust the nozzle to the largest spray pattern (usually the third symbol to the right).
      • Hold the can 6-8 inches from the surface and apply an even coat to both the back of the SM20 panel and the wall.
      • Use a vertical spray pattern on one surface and a horizontal pattern on the other to ensure a strong bond.
   3. Bonding:
      • Press the SM20 panel firmly against the wall immediately after spraying the adhesive.
      • Apply even pressure to the panel using your hands or a roller to ensure proper adhesion.
   4. Ventilation and Safety:
      • Ensure the area is well-ventilated during application.
      • Wear a mask to avoid inhaling adhesive fumes.
   5. Storage:
      • Store the adhesive at room temperature (15° - 21°C) when not in use.
   6. Mechanical Fixings (Optional):
      • For additional security on challenging surfaces, use nails or nail guns to temporarily secure the panel while the adhesive cures.

Tips for Using the SM20 Adhesive

• Temperature Matters: For best results, apply the adhesive at 21°C. Avoid using it in temperatures above 82°F (28°C) to prevent rapid curing that may hinder bonding.
• Apply Evenly: Ensure at least 80% of the surface is covered with adhesive for maximum strength.
• Avoid Over-Spraying: Do not concentrate the spray in one area or allow adhesive to puddle.
• Act Quickly: Once sprayed, bond the surfaces promptly to avoid the adhesive curing before contact.
• Use a Roller: Applying firm pressure with a roller helps achieve a secure bond.
• Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area and wear protective equipment.
