It is also suitable for generally bonding :-
Plastics (not expanded polystyrene or plasticised PVC)
Metals
Leather
Rubber
Urethane Foams

9. APPLICATION
Stir the Antel Contact Adhesive before use and ensure that the surfaces to be bonded are clean and free from grease, dust loose fibres, rust etc. Condition materials to be bonded in the bonding environment overnight (especially wood composites and decorative laminates).
Apply a thin even coat of adhesive to both surfaces using a short stiff brush. When surfaces become touch dry align the bond edges and bond under maximum pressure. For best results laminates should be nip rolled or platen pressed. If this is not possible use a hard roller and go over the entire working surface using as much bodyweight as possible. Seams and edges should always receive extra pressure. If possible sandwich the panel edge between wooden battens and use G-clamps.
The newly bonded material should not be subjected to extreme temperature changes for three to four days after bonding and avoid further fabrication until the adhesive has fully cured.
