may vary due to conditions on the job site. Porous surfaces and substrates may require more bonding
adhesive than the typical coverage rate.
CAUTIONS
1. Review the applicable Material Safety Data Sheet for complete safety information prior to use.
2. Flex TPO Bonding Adhesive is EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE- It contains solvents that are
dangerous fire and explosion hazards when exposed to heat, flame or sparks. Do not smoke while
applying. Do not use in a confined or unventilated area. Vapors are heavier than air and may
travel along ground or may be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, other flames,
sparks, heaters, smoking, electrical motors, static discharge, or other ignition sources at locations
distant from material handling point and flashback. All containers should be grounded when
material is transferred from one container to another. A red caution label is required when
shipping. A fire extinguisher should be available. In case of fire, use water spray, foam, dry
chemical or carbon dioxide. Do not use a solid stream of water because it can scatter and spread
the fire.
3. Avoid breathing vapors. Keep container closed when not in use. Use with adequate ventilation.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, perform artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician immediately. During application, efforts must be made to
prevent fumes from entering the building via air ventilation ducts. Do not place open containers
or mix adhesive near fresh air intake units. When possible, shut down or seal off the closest units.
4. If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Call a physician immediately.
5. Avoid contact with eyes. Safety glasses or goggles are recommended. If splashed in eyes, flush
eyes with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes. Contact a physician immediately.
6. Avoid contact with skin. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. In case of contact with skin,
thoroughly wash affected area with soap and water. Contact physician if irritation persists.
Note: Solvent resistant gloves are recommended to be worn when using this product to protect
hands from irritating ingredients.
7. Do not thin Flex TPO Bonding Adhesive. Thinning will affect performance. Excessively thick or
gelled material should be discarded.
8. Job site storage in excess of 90ºF (32ºC) may affect product shelf life. Should the Flex TPO
Bonding Adhesive be stored at temperatures lower than 60ºF (15ºC), restore to room temperature
prior to use.
