FAQs
Can this adhesive be painted over?
Once fully cured, OB1 Grip & Grab Adhesive can typically be painted over with most standard paint systems. It's advisable to test a small area first.
What is the shelf life of the adhesive?
Unopened cartridges generally have a shelf life of 12-18 months when stored correctly in a cool, dry environment. Refer to the batch code on the cartridge for specific expiry dates.
Do I need a special applicator gun?
A standard 290ml mastic or adhesive applicator gun is required. These are widely available from hardware and trade supply stores.
Is this adhesive suitable for bonding foam insulation?
While it bonds to many surfaces, it's recommended to test on a small area of foam first, as some foams can be sensitive to solvents found in adhesives.
How long does it take to fully cure?
Full cure times can vary depending on temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the adhesive bead, but typically range from 24 to 48 hours.
Can it be used for structural bonding?
OB1 Grip & Grab Adhesive provides high strength and is suitable for many construction and fitting tasks, but it is not intended for primary structural load-bearing applications unless specified by engineering guidelines.
Troubleshooting
Adhesive not dispensing
Ensure the cartridge is properly seated in the applicator gun and the nozzle tip has been cut. Check if the inner seal has been punctured.
Weak bond or slow curing
Verify that surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Ensure adequate ventilation and appropriate temperature conditions (refer to product specifications for optimal range). Ensure sufficient adhesive was applied.
Difficulty repositioning after initial contact
This is characteristic of its instant grab. For applications requiring more adjustment time, consider a different type of adhesive or work in smaller sections.
Adhesive oozing from the cartridge
Release pressure on the applicator gun's trigger when not actively dispensing. Ensure the nozzle is not blocked.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use, ensure you have a standard mastic/adhesive applicator gun. Cut the nozzle tip to the desired bead size. Puncture the inner seal before loading the cartridge into the gun. Apply adhesive evenly to one surface in a zig-zag or deverá pattern. Press the surfaces together firmly within minutes of application.
Compatibility: This adhesive is suitable for a wide range of construction materials including wood, metal, brick, concrete, plaster, glass, and most plastics. It is recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area for highly sensitive or unusual surfaces.
Care: Store cartridges in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Once opened, ensure the nozzle is sealed or cleaned to prevent curing. Clean up any excess uncured adhesive immediately with a damp cloth or appropriate solvent as per manufacturer recommendations. Cured adhesive can be removed mechanically.
