Tec7 Transclear

Tec7 Trans Clear is a transparent universal sealing adhesive with very good adhesion to various materials such as tiles, cement, natural stone, wood, concrete, glass and aluminum. This adhesive is odourless and even adheres to wet substrates. In addition, Tec7 is fungus and bacteria resistant and easy to use.

Features Tec7 Trans Clear 

• Transparent.
• After curing super strong and permanently elastic.
• Free of solvents and isocyanates.
• Safe on mirrors, no markings on natural stone.
• Almost odourless.
• Can even be used on wet, slippery surfaces.
• Fungus and bacteria resistant.
• Water and airtight.
• Can be used on most building materials.

Instructions for use

• Use Tec7 Trans Clear at a temperature between +5°C and +40°C and apply to a clean, dust- and grease free surface.
• Use Tec7 Prepare & Finish to clean and degrease safely, obtain the perfect finish, and to remove uncured Tec7 polymers. In case of heavy soiling, clean with Tec7 Cleaner and/or Multiclean. Use HP Clean for finishing on porous materials.
• Apply the adhesive with a manual or air caulking gun.
• Due to the diversity of varnishes and paints on the market we recommend preliminary tests. Using products based on alkyd resins may delay the drying process.
• Test the adhesion to plastics, powder paints, exotic woods and bituminous materials.  
• Start by strengthening weak and/or porous substrates with Fixprimer.
• When gluing mirrors in sanitary facilities only apply vertical strips of adhesive to avoid stagnant moisture due to condensation.
• The ideal adhesive thickness for optimal adhesion strength is 3 mm.
