FlexiProof EPDM Contact Bonding Adhesive is a solvent-based contact adhesive for fixing EPDM membrane, upstands and trims to timber decks, blockwork and other non-porous substrates: coat both surfaces, let them reach touch-dry, then bring them together for a permanent, high-strength bond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolvent-based contact adhesive for full membrane bonding — perimeters, upstands and vertical details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for one-piece and fleece-backed EPDM systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree sizes to match your roof area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSizes\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1L, 2.5L, 5L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolvent-based contact adhesive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCoverage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApprox. 1–2m² per litre (varies with substrate porosity)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSubstrates\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTimber decks, blockwork and other non-porous surfaces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eApplication\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoth surfaces, touch-dry, then bond\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much do I need?\u003c\/strong\u003e At 1–2m² per litre, a 5L tin covers roughly 5–10m² of bonded area. Contact adhesive is typically used on perimeters and upstands rather than the whole deck, so measure those areas rather than the full roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContact adhesive or deck adhesive?\u003c\/strong\u003e Use contact adhesive for perimeter zones, upstands and any vertical surface. For bonding the main field of the roof on large areas, a water-based deck adhesive is the usual partner product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long until it's ready to bond?\u003c\/strong\u003e Coat both surfaces and wait until touch-dry — tacky but not stringy — then press the membrane in firmly.
