Thread: Contact cement

    Contact cement

    I have to use a lacquer base contact for laminate a job. I will not be able to spray. I'm using Star Stuk NS-35+, a brushing grade product. It says on the can that you can roll it on. I was wondering what kind of roller would be best? This product is very thick.

    For rolling I always use an “adhesive roller” from Home Depot. Allows a nice even spread as you need to beware of puddles.

    We call them corncobs. Clean them off real good or die them in lacquer thinner and they can last years or at least through the entire job.

    Easiest way to apply is to use a squirt bottle to apply the contact adhesive then roll it out. Adhesive in paint trays will get gummy real quick.

    To google use contact adhesive roller.


    BTW great tip on the squirt bottle to dispense it!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
