 Priming BonDuit® Cartridges |
APC has updated the BonDuit Application Instructions to include more detail on proper priming. Priming is critically important before performing BonDuit demos or making bonds. After placing a cartridge in the dispensing tool and removing the cap, squeeze the handle to dispense a small amount of product (to be discarded) until both white and black resins are coming out. Then attach the mixing nozzle. The nozzle is much more than a pin-point applicator; it's an in-line mixer. The 2-part BonDuit must flow through the nozzle to initiate the curing process. Squeeze the tool handle one or two more times until the product exiting the nozzle is a uniform gray mixture of the two resin parts. The first few squirts can't guarantee equal mixing, and must be discarded. Now the cartridge and nozzle are primed for use. Remember to prime each and every nozzle. Adding a new nozzle to a previously used cartridge requires more priming. The consequence of not performing proper priming procedures is failed and embarrassing demos, and dissatisfied customers. |
