Product Information
Full details
Evo-Stik Gripfill is designed for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts who require a high-strength, solvent-based adhesive capable of bridging gaps on uneven surfaces. It provides a robust final bond across a wide variety of building materials, making it an essential tool for large-scale renovation or construction projects. The primary caveat is that while it is suitable for exterior use, it must be applied in a location where the bond is protected from direct exposure to the elements.

FAQs
Can I use Gripfill on surfaces that will be painted?
Yes, once the adhesive is fully cured, it can be painted over with most standard decorative paints.
Is this adhesive waterproof?
It is water-resistant, but it is not intended for use in areas where the bond will be permanently submerged in water or exposed to direct rain.
What is the drying time?
While it has an immediate grab, it typically takes 24 to 48 hours to reach full strength depending on environmental conditions and temperature.
Does this work on plastic?
It is compatible with UPVC, but it is recommended to perform a small test patch if you are unsure about a specific plastic substrate.
How do I remove excess adhesive?
Wet adhesive can be cleaned with a damp cloth or a solvent-based cleaner; once cured, it usually must be removed mechanically by scraping or sanding.
Troubleshooting
Adhesive failing to set
Check that at least one surface is porous; solvent-based adhesives require a path for moisture/solvents to escape.
Hard to extrude from cartridge
Ensure the room temperature is above 5°C; cold adhesive thickens and becomes difficult to dispense.
Bond is not holding
Verify surfaces are free from dust, oil, and moisture before application.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure that at least one of the surfaces being bonded is porous to allow for proper curing. Clean all surfaces thoroughly to remove dust, grease, or loose debris. The adhesive is compatible with wood, metal, stone, brick, and common plastics. When working, ensure adequate ventilation as the product is solvent-based. After use, seal the nozzle to prevent the remaining adhesive in the cartridge from hardening. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the product.
