General Instructions
(See separate doweling, laminating, and patching instructions for more specific instructions. CSI format specifications are available.)

Surface Preparation and Use
Use gloves, wear eye protection, and avoid skin contact. When grinding cured joints, wear a dust mask. Substrate to be bonded must be completely dry and dust free. Mix only the amount of epoxy which can be used in 10 minutes. Avoid stressing joint before complete cure of epoxy. Mask areas which must be kept free of epoxy. Clean uncured epoxy from tools with toluol (toluene) or xylol (xy-lene). ( Use caution, these solvents are flammable. Ensure local ventilation.) Remove cured epoxy mechanically.

Mixing Instructions
All material should be at or above 60°F. Combine the two ingredients at the following weight ra-tio: One part of A to one part B-412X. Mix thoroughly--- ingredients must be blended homogene-ously for proper cure. Best to mix using double mix method. See reverse side.

Temperature Dependency
The adhesive, substrate, and environment’s temperature will affect the working properties of the material. Approximately every 10°F results in doubling the speed of cure. Therefore, at 85°F set time is cut in half, at 65°F the set time is doubled. Do not use on sub- strate at a temperature below 55°F.

Coverage
Approximately 30 square feet per gallon when applied at 50 mils (1/16th of an inch). One gallon equals 231 cubic inches.

Availability

Packaging and Storage
Bonstone® Anchor is available in quarts, gallons, and 5 gallon pails. Shelf life is approximately one year if kept in unopened cans in a dry area at 75°F.

**If Bonstone A-100 is exposed to below room temperature conditions for extended periods of time, it may crystallize, giving it a stiff, grainy consistency. The product must be reconsti-tuted before use by heating it to 150°F degrees. Stir until it becomes a homogeneous liquid.
