Is weldwood original contact cement water based?
Weldwood® Nonflammable Contact Cement Weldwood Nonflammable Contact Cement is a high solids polychloroprene, waterborne contact adhesive that meets the stringent requirements of the professional user.
Is contact cement dry when flexible?
For some surfaces, contact cement is the only effective bonding material. Contact cement, or contact adhesive, is a neoprene rubber adhesive that creates a fast, flexible, permanent bond. Contact cement is already dry on contact. Once the solvent evaporates, the cement forms a flexible bond with no residual moisture.
How long does it take for contact cement to harden?
Allow both surfaces to dry 60-70 minutes (dependent on temperature and humidity). Dry Contact Cement will feel tacky and appear glossy. If surfaces are not assembled within 2-3 hours, applying an additional coat of Nonflammable Contact Cement can reactivate adhesive. 3.
