• Not suggested for sealing vapor barrier jackets.
• Overhead applications may require mechanical fasteners.

Preparation and Application Information

Material Preparation

Stir well. DO NOT THIN. Apply only to clean, dry, oil-free surfaces. Keep container closed when not in use.

Application

Spray

Apply the Foster® 85-10 adhesive to the metal surface uniformly at 300 – 500 sq. ft./gal. (7.4 – 12.3 m2/l). While still wet, press the insulation into place, making sure that complete contact is made with applied adhesive. Immediately embed weld pins. As a water based adhesive 85-10 will not flash due to weld pint installation even while wet. Average viscosity: 5,000 cps. Before using for the first time, existing spray systems must be completely cleaned and free of the old adhesive and solvents. Flush system thoroughly with water before use. Keep spray heads clean and tips damp to prevent drying between use. Corrosion resistant pumps and fittings are suggested.
The following equipment combinations are suggested:

	Model Spraygun	Fluid Nozzle	Air Cap	Fluid Pressure	Atomization Pressure
Binks	2001 SS	68	68PB	25 – 30 psi	60 – 70 psi
DeVilbiss	JGA-510	E	777	25 psi	60 – 70 psi

• Brush/Roller
  • Use clean equipment suitable for water-based paints..

Clean Up

To clean up, use warm soapy water if still wet. When dry, use xylene (flammable) or chlorinated solvent (non-flammable).
