General Information and Directions for the Use of Palmer QwikSet

Palmer QWIKSET™ MIRRO-MASTIC® is a high-quality superior adhesive that possesses long-life resiliency due to its live strength, extra low shrinkage and faster set-up time. This permits trim and evenface finishing with mirror-to-mirror or mirror-to-glass overlays.

DIRECTIONS FOR SUBSTRUCTURE, MIRROR PREPARATION AND APPLICATION:

1.) Make sure both surfaces are free of dust, clean and dry. On nonporous substructures such as glass, tile or metal, priming or sealing is not necessary. If used on porous substructure, use a primer or sealer on dry, clean substructure and allow it to dry. Never apply primer, sealer or QwikSet to a painted surface or wall covering.

2.) Cut the tapered spout on the cartridge so it will dispense the desired size bead or pat of QwikSet.

3.) Apply sufficient QWIKSET so that when the mirror is pressed into place the adhesive will cover approximately 60% of the back of the mirror (see illustrations above). Leave an air space between the beads or pats to allow the adhesive to set up. After mastic application, press mirror into place allowing1/32" to 1/16" space between mirror and substrate. Care should be taken to make sure that QwikSet is not applied too heavy or close to the edge causing "squeeze out" that will have to be cleaned off. Any clean up should be done with mineral spirits.

4.) Support mirror at the bottom. This may be done with double-face tape tabs left in place, permanent L hangers, or "J" channel.

5.) For best adhesion both the mirror and the substrate should be above 40°F (4.4°C)
