Insert glue cartridge into cartridge gun, remove cap and allow both adhesive components to emerge. Strip adhesive components uniformly and attach mixing tube. Only use mixing tubes supplied with glue cartridge.
Approx. Allow approx. 10 cm of mixed adhesive to emerge and then apply the mixed adhesive first on one side of the bonding surface.
Adhesive application
Read the vehicle-specific repair instructions to determine the thickness and positioning of the adhesive bead.
After applying the adhesive, check whether an adhesive component has emerged at the back of the glue cartridge. If yes, break off the bonding procedure. Clean new part. Use new glue cartridge. Contact national hotline.
Remove contamination caused by adhesive residue immediately.
Hardened adhesive can only be removed mechanically.
