When you need a bond that holds instantly, allowing you to move onto the next task without waiting or clamping, Xtraseal MS-609 delivers. This instant grab adhesive ensures panels, trims, and architectural elements stay exactly where you put them, right from the first second. Achieve a strong, elastic, and paintable finish across a wide array of building materials, both indoors and out.
Xtraseal MS-609 provides an immediate, high-strength bond in a convenient 300ml cartridge. It is the same high-performance MS polymer adhesive as Hi Power 609, formulated to give you the ultimate grab and adhesion across almost any common construction material. The cartridge format is designed for precise applications, smaller jobs, and situations where a sausage gun is not practical. This means less mess, easier control, and the right tool for detailed work like mirror bonding, skirting installations, or joinery where exact placement is key.
With an impressive wet strength of up to 400 kg/m², MS-609 holds heavy elements vertically without mechanical support almost instantly, drastically reducing the need for temporary bracing or clamping on site. After full cure, its Shore A hardness of 50 ensures a robust, durable bond, yet it maintains elasticity, demonstrated by 200% elongation at break. This flexibility accommodates building movement, preventing cracking or bond failure over time. The adhesive is paintable with water-based paints and offers exceptional UV and weather resistance, making it suitable for exposed external applications where the finish needs to match the surrounding surfaces.
Prepare surfaces to be sound, clean, and free of dust, oils, or loose material. For impervious surfaces like metal or glazed tiles, use a two-wipe process with white spirit. While MS-609 offers strong adhesion without priming, for critical or high-stress applications, prime non-porous surfaces with Adheseal 50A Surface Prep and porous substrates such as concrete or bricks with Everflex Supaprime. Apply the adhesive between 5°C and 40°C using a triangular nozzle, ensuring a bead at least 2mm thick for optimal elastic performance. Once the load is pressed into place, you have a 10 to 30 minute skin time to make minor adjustments before it begins to set. Clean wet adhesive with white spirit; cured material requires mechanical removal.
Yes. MS-609 is ideal for bonding mirrors. It adheres well to mirror backing without causing staining or corrosion, and it provides immediate grip on vertical surfaces.
Yes. MS-609 can be applied to slightly moist surfaces and is moisture-tolerant during curing. However, it should not be used for applications where it will remain permanently submerged.
X'traseal MS-609 adheres to metal, timber, PVC, polystyrene, polycarbonate, mirror backing, glass, and most construction surfaces. It’s not recommended for polyethylene, polypropylene, or PTFE.
Yes. MS-609 is paintable with most water-based paints. For best results, allow the adhesive to fully cure and conduct a spot test before large-scale painting.
MS-609 skins over in approx. 5 minutes, is tack-free in 20 minutes, and reaches full cure in about 24–48 hours depending on joint thickness, humidity, and temperature.
| Application / Use Case | Key Benefit | Primary Trades |
|---|---|---|
| Mirror Bonding | Non-staining formula with instant grip on vertical surfaces | Glaziers, Fitout Contractors |
| Skirting & Trims | Supports heavy trims without nails, reducing visible fixings | Fitout Carpenters, Builders |
| Decorative Wall Panels | Adheres to a wide range of composite and coated materials | Shopfitters, Interior Designers |
| Coated Metal & Cladding | Strong adhesion to prefinished or powder-coated surfaces | Façade Installers, Signmakers |
| General Construction Assembly | Versatile adhesive for timber, PVC, polycarbonate, and more | General Builders, Renovators |
Ensure bonding surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, grease, or release agents. Abrade glossy surfaces lightly if needed. Use lint-free cloth and mild detergent if cleaning is required.
Cut nozzle to desired bead size (typically 5–8mm). Apply MS-609 in vertical beads or dabs spaced 10–20cm apart. Ensure even distribution to allow moisture access during curing.
Bring surfaces together within 5 minutes of application. Apply firm, uniform pressure across the bonded area. No mechanical support is required in most cases due to high initial grab.
MS-609 skins in approx. 5 minutes and becomes tack-free in 20 minutes. Full cure is achieved in 24–48 hours depending on thickness, temperature, and humidity.
After full cure, MS-609 can be painted with most water-based paints. Always test on a small area for compatibility before painting large surfaces.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses during application. Wash hands after use. Avoid skin and eye contact with uncured product.
Ensure adequate ventilation during use, particularly in confined areas. Avoid inhalation of any vapour, especially during prolonged use in sealed environments.
Product is non-flammable. Store away from heat and direct sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures above 30°C.
Ensure mirror backing is clean and dust-free. Avoid alcohol wipes or aggressive solvents that could damage silvering. Apply MS-609 in vertical beads to allow ventilation and moisture curing.
Ensure paint is sound and fully cured. Lightly abrade glossy coatings to improve grip. Remove dust and residue before application.
Wipe surfaces with a lint-free cloth and mild detergent. Rinse and dry. Avoid oily timbers or contaminated surfaces. No need to sand pre-finished trims unless coated in gloss polyurethane.
Ensure surface is clean and free from protective film, dust, or oxidation. Wipe with alcohol-based cleaner and allow to evaporate before applying adhesive.
Brush away loose particles. Ensure surfaces are dry. MS-609 is non-bleeding and won’t stain natural substrates, making it ideal for architectural stone bonding.
