Everbond Brush Contact Adhesive is a solvent-based, brushable contact adhesive for decorative laminates, bench tops, upholstery foam and fabrication trim. Coat both mating faces, let the solvent flash off and press the surfaces together to create an immediate contact bond. Its thicker application feel makes it practical for controlled brush, spreader or roller work.
Choose Brush Contact for workshop and site jobs where you need to position coverings, edging and laminates without waiting for a conventional wet adhesive to build its first grip. The finished bond is flexible; higher heat demands may call for a separately specified two-part system with Everbond 2P Crosslinker.
Typical applications
-
Cabinetmaking and shopfitting: bonding decorative laminates and edging to compatible substrates.
-
Bench tops: contact-bonding suitable laminate surfaces under firm, even pressure.
-
Automotive and furniture upholstery: bonding tested polyurethane foam and fabric-backed covering materials.
-
Caravan and vehicle interiors: attaching compatible insulation, trim or interior composite components.
-
Flexible air duct and display work: joining suitable fabrication coverings and display components.
Getting a reliable contact bond
Prepare clean, dry surfaces. Apply an even coat to both faces without pools, wait until the adhesive is touch-dry and assemble carefully; contact bonds allow limited repositioning after the surfaces touch. Press firmly across the entire surface, especially at corners and edges.
Do not use on expanded polystyrene foam—choose Styrobond ST for that purpose. Avoid unsupported plastics, plasticised PVC and primary load-bearing applications. High humidity, excessive adhesive or trapping solvent beneath non-porous materials can cause bond failure.
