TJB-INC INSTALLATION TIPS:

Condition the area to be installed.  Make sure adhesive and surfaces are at 45°F (7°C) or above for 48 hours before, during and 48 hours after installation. Surfaces must be sound, smooth, dry, clean and free of excessive moisture or alkali. Remove dirt, wax, loose paint and all other foreign matter that would interfere with a good bond such as curing agents and sealers.  If using seam tape/binder material, make sure it is free of debris before applying the adhesive.

• Directions for installation:

  1. Layout your binder tape
  2. Open the glue and pour or spray thin layer on the binder tape. Apply a continuous bed of about 1/16” thick x 6” width, approximately 3” per side to be bonded 
  3. Mist once or twice with water via airless sprayer
  4. After application to the substrate or binder fabric, wait about 15 – 25 minutes. Once small bubbles start to develop on the surface of the adhesive, press the artificial grass firmly, applying enough pressure to ensure full contact between both.  (you won’t need anything to weigh it down, weighing it down can cause our glue to push against the turf).   
  5. Wait 5 minutes - do not lift the turf as lifting will not allow any adhesive to adhere. 
  6. Press your seams down again then
  7. Wait a couple hours and the adhesive will harden
  8. Adhesive will be completely cured in 24 to 48 hours.  Since XGS SEAM GLUE is a moisture-curing adhesive, the humidity in the air, substrate and artificial grass backing will ultimately affect the outcome of the bonding. Extreme temperature variations will also affect the curing process.

   

  Storage:

• The shelf life of XGS SEAM GLUE adhesive is 3 - 6 months under the following conditions: The adhesive should be stored at 60º-80º F., and protected against any form of moisture in the original unopened container.  It is very important to close the container immediately after dispensing. This is extremely important to reduce moisture absorption

• It is strongly recommended to familiarize with the product before use on a large scale. The outcome of the finished product will depend on the experience and skill of the person applying it
