Best Practices for 3M 9471LE
-
Surface Preparation
For maximum bond strength, the surface should be thoroughly cleaned and dried. Typical cleaning solvents are heptane or isopropyl alcohol.
-
Application
Initial tape application to surfaces at temperatures below 50°F (10°C) is not recommended for most pressure-sensitive adhesive because the adhesive becomes too firm to adhere readily. However, once properly applied, low temperature holding is generally satisfactory.
