Storage Conditions
Store in a cool, dry location at temperatures between 12.8 °C (55 °F) and 29.4 °C (85 °F). Protect from freezing at all times. Keep containers closed. Contamination by moisture or basic compounds can cause dangerous pressure build-up in a closed container.

Application
Consumption
Application rates vary depending on surface roughness and absorption rate of the substrate. Typical coverage rates when using the:
- 1.5 L cartridge: approximately 56 m2 (600 ft2) per case
- 10 US gal. box set: 93 m2 to 185 m2 (1,000 ft2 to 2,000 ft2)
Rates are based on an application of 300 mm (12 in) o.c. ribbons.
SUBSTRATE PREPARATION
All surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of dirt, grease, oil, or other contaminants or particulates. All concrete surfaces must be cured prior to applying Sarnacol® OM Feltback Membrane Adhesive.
APPLICATION
SpotShot Applicator:
Remove the plastic plugs from the cartridge mixing head. Attach a mixing tip to the threaded mixing head. Place the cartridge into the applicator. When starting a new cartridge, dispense some adhesive into a bucket or other suitable receptacle to achieve a proper mix. Apply the adhesive directly to the substrate, using a ribbon pattern. Space the 19 - 25 mm (¾ - 1 in) wide beads at a maximum of 300 mm (12 in) o.c. to achieve proper coverage rate. Actual ribbon spacing will depend on the wind uplift rating required. Allow the adhesive to turn to a caramel color (normally 3 - 5 minutes) before placing the feltback membrane into the adhesive.
The adhesive is designed to provide approximately 4 - 8 minutes of open time during a typical summer day. The membrane must be positioned and rolled into place quickly. A minimum of 45 kg (100 lb) steel roller must be used to roll the membrane.
PaceCart2 Installation:
Install Part A and Part B components following instructions on the packaging. Always insure that the Part A and Part B containers are always
hooked to the same dispensing holders or hoses (i.e. do not reverse the dispenser holders and hoses between Part A and Part B). All valves on the dispensing unit must be completely opened so a 1:1 ratio is achieved when moving the adhesive through the disposable mix tip and onto the substrate in a semi-liquid state. When starting a new box set, dispense some adhesive into a bucket or other suitable receptacle to achieve a proper mix. Apply the adhesive directly to the substrate, using a ribbon pattern. Space the 19 - 25 mm (¾ - 1 in) wide beads at a maximum of 300 mm (12 in) o.c. to achieve proper coverage rate. Actual ribbon spacing will depend on the wind uplift rating required. Allow the adhesive to turn to a caramel color (normally 3 - 5 minutes) before placing the feltback membrane into the adhesive. The adhesive is designed to provide approximately 4 - 8 minutes of open time during a typical summer day. The membrane must be positioned and rolled into place quickly.
A minimum 45 kg (100 lb) steel roller must be used to roll the membrane.
