  • Apply only to clean, dry, oil-free surfaces.
  • Keep container closed when not in use.
  • Application

Spray

  • Apply the Foster® JAC-TAC® 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.
  • Average viscosity range: 1,000 – 2,000 cps.
  • Before using for the first time, existing spray systems must be completely cleaned and free of the old adhesive and solvents.
  • Corrosion resistant pumps and fittings are suggested.
