Mean Green Bulk, MG-1, 5, 55

MEAN GREEN – works perfectly on fiberglass, bubble wrap, and most other ductwork insulation. Mean Green boasts the highest solids content in the industry and is formulated for pressure-sensitive, quick tack, and strong bond which resists heat, cold, and moisture. Mean Green’s controlled spray pattern provides a low soak-in rate so more adhesive remains on the surface where it is needed to adhere to similar or dissimilar materials.

CYLINDER INFORMATION: Mean Green is the only non-flammable, solvent-based adhesive available in a cylinder that meets all DOT39 regulations and passes ASTM C916, ASTM D1151-00 and ASTM E 84 (Flame Spread Index =10, Smoke Developed Index =15). Levels for Class A/Type I Material as classified by NFPA 101 Safety Code; Flame Spread Index = 0 – 25, Smoke Developed Index = 0 – 450, Volatile Organic Content: < 1 g/L.

Directions:

Effective Application for Strong and Durable Bonds

  1. Prepare Surface: Ensure the surface is clean and free from debris, dust, dirt, grease, or other contaminants.
  2. Wear Protective Gear: Wear goggles, gloves, and protective clothing for safety.
  3. Apply Base Coat: Spray, brush, or roll a light coat of MEAN GREEN adhesive inside the sheet.
  4. Apply Edge Coat: Apply a thicker coat of adhesive around the edges to provide strong bonding strength.
  5. Contact Cement: Spray a light coat on both the insulation and metal to use the adhesive as a contact cement.

By following these steps, you can effectively apply MEAN GREEN adhesive for secure and durable bonding.
