Technical Tips – Applying Cho-Bond 1038 & 1075

Today we bring you a Technical Tips on applying Cho-Bond 1038 & 1075.

The application of Cho-Bond typically starts with a primer . Then solvent-based primer dries up quickly meaning that it is effective when used on metalwork/grooves. Cho-Bond can then be applied as a thin layer to create a gasket.

To find out the full works on how to properly apply Cho-Bond 1038 & 1075 read the full piece here.
