Tenax Fixtop Epoxy Setting Adhesive
Tenax Fixtop Epoxy Setting Adhesive is a true 100% two-part epoxy glue not water-based. It is very easy to mix and spread. Suitable for gluing and bonding marble, granite, stones, mosaics, porcelain, and ceramics as well as hardwood, cement board, laminate, and plywood. Works best when applied in a thin layer. Use to bond metal to stones, concrete to metal, ceramic to stone, stone to honeycomb panels. Does not dissolve or break down in water so it is great for shower applications and won’t delaminate. No issues with expansion or contraction. For indoor and outdoor use.

Instructions For Use
Make sure the surface to be treated is completely dry and clean. Keep the glue and hardeners in their original cans. If using an automatic dosing pump avoid contact with metals made of copper, brass, or similar metals which may rust. Avoid the use of PVC plastic. Use only plastic that is corrosive resistant. Measure out, in either weight or volume, the correct amounts of part A and part B. Mix well using clean tools. Best when applied in a thin layer. Use acetone or butyl acetate to clean tools.
