occur initially, but this will disappear after several days of exposure. Do not re-broom in an
attempt to remove swelling.
COVERAGE RATES
Flex TPO Low-VOC Bonding Adhesive- 60 ft² (5.6m²) per gallon finished surface. Coverage rates are
average and may vary due to conditions on the job site. Porous surfaces and substrates may require more
bonding adhesive than the typical coverage rate.
CAUTIONS
1. Review the applicable Material Safety Data Sheet for complete safety information prior to use.
2. Flex TPO Low-VOC Bonding Adhesive must be stored in original unopened containers at
temperatures between 60º F (15º C) and 90º F (32º C). Jobsite storage in excess of 90º F (32º C)
may affect product shelf life. Prolonged exposure to below freezing temperatures will cause the
adhesive to thicken and solidify in the can. Should the Low-VOC Bonding Adhesive be stored at
temperatures lower than 25º F (-4º C), restore to room temperature for a minimum of 24 hours
prior to use. Adhesive will perform as intended once it is returned to a liquid state. When
temperatures are expected to be consistently below 40º F, a heated enclosure or hot box is required
for storage.
3. Flex TPO Low-VOC Bonding Adhesive is EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE- It contains solvents
that are dangerous fire and explosion hazards when exposed to heat, flame or sparks. Do not
smoke while applying. Do not use in a confined or unventilated area. Vapors are heavier than air
and may travel along ground or may be moved by ventilation and ignited by pilot lights, other
flames, sparks, heaters, smoking, electrical motors, static discharge, or other ignition sources at
locations distant from material handling point and flashback. All containers should be grounded
when material is transferred from one container to another. A red caution label is required when
shipping. A fire extinguisher should be available. In case of fire, use water spray, foam, dry
chemical or carbon dioxide. Do not use a solid stream of water because it can scatter and spread
the fire.
4. Avoid breathing vapors. Keep container closed when not in use. Use with adequate ventilation.
If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, perform artificial respiration. If breathing is
difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician immediately. During application, efforts must be made to
prevent fumes from entering the building via air ventilation ducts. Do not place open containers
or mix adhesive near fresh air intake units. When possible, shut down or seal off the closest units.
5. If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Call a physician immediately.
6. Avoid contact with eyes. Safety glasses or goggles are recommended. If splashed in eyes, flush
eyes with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes. Contact a physician immediately.
7. Avoid contact with skin. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. In case of contact with skin,
thoroughly wash affected area with soap and water. Contact physician if irritation persists.
