Alpha Thixofix Contact Adhesive has been developed for the specific aim of making simple the bonding of laminated plastics to wood and other substrates, whilst maintaining the well proven efficiency of ordinary contact adhesives..
Ease of use
- The following application characteristics make this product simple to use.
- is thixotropic. It is a gel, similar to non-drip paint, so it spreads like butter.
- It does not spill and cuts out the mess normally associated with ordinary contact adhesives.
- When bonding normal sized sheets of laminated plastics, the unique "slideability" allows the accurate positioning of materials.
- For large sheets of laminate use Trade Formula.
* A free plastic spreader is supplied with each purchase.
Application
Alpha Thixofix was primarily manufactured for bonding laminated plastics to wood, hardboard, chipboard, etc. A very versatile adhesive and will bond laminated plastics, rigid Pvc, cork, rubber, leather, fabrics, wood, painted and unpainted metal, hardboard, plaster, plasterboard, chipboard, etc.
Technical Data
- Coverage per litre: 2.5 - 3 sq metres.
- Coverage reduces on absorbent surfaces.
- Minimum Open Joint 10-15 minutes depending on temperature and absorbency of Time: materials.
- Do not bond until both surfaces are "touch dry".
- Cleaner: T 559 (TF)
- Heat Resistance 70°C
- Flash Point - 5°C
- Method of use Surfaces to be bonded must be clean, dry and free from dust, oil or grease.
- Do not stir the adhesive.
- The materials to be bonded should be dry and free from dust, grit, oil and grease.
- On absorbent surfaces, such as plywood, hardboard and plasterboard, a primer coat may be necessary.

Use
Firstly, hold the Alpha spreader upright and spread a uniform coat of adhesive over both surfaces to be bonded. This will help to ensure the correct amount of adhesive is applied. A useful tip when using the spreader is to ensure that the ridges of adhesive run vertically on one surface and horizontally on the other. Take special care that all edges are properly coated with adhesive. Secondly, allow the glue to become "touch dry", (normally this will be 10-15 minutes, although this can be longer in cold, damp conditions), but no longer than 25 minutes. Another useful tip; the easiest way to establish whether the adhesive is in the correct condition for bonding, is by touching the adhesive surface lightly with the knuckles. Check different parts of the coated surfaces, particularly the area last coated. Check that the adhesive does not transfer to the skin, bonding can take place. Remember, bonding must take place within 25 minutes of the two surfaces being coated.
Bonding
Bring the materials Very gently together. It is always advisable to position the materials in exactly the desired position. However, one of the big advantages of Thixofix is that it has unique "slideability" and does allow you to make small adjustments to normal sized sheets of laminate, provided that initially both surfaces are "touch dry" and brought together gently. Then press the two surfaces together with FIRM, even pressure, ensuring that no area is missed. When bonding impervious surfaces together, e.g. rigid plastic, metal, etc., a better bond will be obtained if the two surfaces are thoroughly abraded by using, for example, a rough emery cloth or wire brush. Both surfaces should then be cleaned before applying the adhesive. For edging strips, the same bonding instructions apply, but in the case of very porous wood simply use one coat as a primer. Wait until "touch dry" and then apply the main coat and follow normal instructions. Thixofix will bond strongly, forming a powerful, permanent bond.
Painted Surfaces
It can be successfully used on painted surfaces, but since these can vary greatly the following test is recommended. Spread onto an unimportant small portion of the painted surface, allow drying for 30 minutes and check to see that the paint has not suffered or shown any signs of peeling.

Intended use: Used for cold gluing synthetic and natural Leather, rubber, textiles, felt, Cork and China as well as various configurations of All the above materials.
Application: Clean the surface of the joined elements with a piece of fine abrasive paper and remove the dust. Stir the glue and apply on both surfaces with a hard bristle brush. Allow the glue to dry preliminarily prior to joining both surfaces. Apply only one layer on rubber (both surfaces to be joined), but two layers (the second layer after 20 minutes) on absorptive materials, like leather or fabric. Join both glued elements together 17-25 minutes after application of the last layer of glue. Press tightly for 10 minutes. The joint reaches its full strength after 48 hours. Temperature of transport, storage and application: +5°C to +25°C.
