When mixed in equal proportions - either by volume or by weight - curing takes between 5 and 10 minutes, enough time to allow handling at room temperature.

This adhesive has a quick drying to join wood, metal, glass, ceramics, most plastics, concrete, graphite ...

How to repair figures with Enviroset

Restoring figures is very simple with our product Enviroset. In a matter of seconds and following the step by step of our professionals, you will have your piece as new. First, it is essential to gather all the materials that we are going to use to have everything ready and perform our repair as soon as possible.

The materials we need are:

• Two-component epoxy adhesive enviroset , with a curing of 5 minutes. 
• Dremel or water sandpaper to have the surface clean and suitable for work. 
• Wooden spatula. For mixing the adhesive and pouring it on the surface to be repaired. 
• Glass. To mix the two parts of the Enviroset adhesive.

Step by step

• Before starting it is necessary to prepare the damaged surface of our piece. With a dremel or some water sandpaper we create a texture on the two surfaces that will be in contact. In this way the adhesive will penetrate those textures and we will achieve a greater adhesion power.

• To use the adhesive, on the bottom of a glass, pour this and mix the two components in equal parts with the help of a wooden spatula. Depending on the magnitude of the breakage of the part, you will need a certain amount. If you have questions about this step, contact our Feroca professionals and they will solve your doubts instantly.

• Once it is well mixed, we apply the adhesive on the contact surfaces with the same wooden stick that we use for the mixture. We join the pieces and with a little alcohol we remove the residues that protrude.

• We let it dry for 5 minutes and we would have our piece repaired.

Advantages of using Enviroset adhesive

As we have seen, some materials can only be adhered to each other with this glue. Typically, ordinary adhesives that work by evaporation of a solvent require that one of the faces to be glued together is porous. In this way, the moisture of the product is absorbed and curing is facilitated. There are exceptions: silicone, for example. However, if two pieces of glass, porcelain, plastic, metal are glued together with universal adhesive, carpenter's glue, etc., the glue has nowhere to escape and the pieces do not bind.

Therefore, the Enviroset Adhesive Epoxy from Feroca is the only one that dries each of the pieces separately and this product, many times, is the only one that serves to glue non-porous materials together.
