3.0 Execution
3.1 References
A. Adhesive Lubricant 105 exceeds the requirements of ASTM D-2835
B. Refer to ChemMasters MSDS and Technical Data Sheets
3.2 Surface Preparation:
Be sure the joint is clean and dry. Adhesive Lubricant 105 should be applied liberally to the neoprene compression seal or to the pavement joint prior to inserting the seal into the joint. Apply by hand or machine. Wear gloves while handling. The rate of application will depend upon the design of the compression seal. The seal must be inserted into the joint immediately following the application of the Adhesive Lubricant 105. The directions and recommended application rate of the neoprene compression seal manufacturer take precedence over these directions where the two are in conflict.
3.3 Clean-up
Tools and equipment used in the application of Adhesive Lubricant 105 should be cleaned with toluene, xylene or a blend of the two.
