Liquid nails are a special glue used in construction, and its production requires the use of special staff based on liquid rubber and various additives in the form of polymers of special clay or chalk. Its application is quite wide and not only for construction.

Liquid nails Moment Installation are available in two groups:

Based on synthetic resins. This composition contains organic solvents, which can be easily identified by its characteristic pungent odor. This glue has its own list of materials with which it reacts, since organic substances, when interacting with plastic, dissolve the latter. This glue is designated MP and is not used for work with foam plastic, PVC, or for work related to fire safety. The main advantage of this glue is its excellent moisture resistance and strength. Used mainly for outdoor work.
Based on aqueous acrylate. This is a neutral composition in chemical composition, used to work with PVC panels, for gluing foam baseboards. Can be used for interior work.

The first time this substance was tested as an adhesive was in 1968 when gluing two wooden partitions. The test was successful, and the composition was put into production. Since then, work on improvement has not stopped until now, because the best is the enemy of the good. This composition, called glue Moment Installation liquid nails, is now used for connection with such materials, wooden structures, glass, plastic, plexiglass, aluminum and alloys, as well as plasterboard and cork. Liquid nails are also used for repairs and to seal seams. You can also use it to stick heavy wallpaper, such as bamboo.

Basic rules when using adhesives Moment Installation

If the glue is made on the basis of synthetic resins, such as Extra Strength, it contains phenol. When using it, you need to remember that glue vapors are very dangerous to health and, in addition, they are flammable. Therefore, it is used only for external work to connect any materials except polystyrene foam. You need to work with a respirator and protect your eyes and skin from getting glue.

Of course, the company is developing new and new brands of adhesives, especially since there is demand for them. Nowadays, liquid nails are produced that are based on silane polymers, which have excellent adhesion and do not contain toxic components.

Today, more than ever, liquid nails are widely used in construction and repair work. When performing certain types of work, they are simply irreplaceable. In some cases, they facilitate and speed up the construction process. There is no need to use hammer drills, hammers, nails, self-tapping screws and the like. It is worth taking a closer look at what types there are liquid nails in what areas they are used.

Purpose

The scope of application of Moment Montazh liquid nails is very wide.

H They are most often used in the following cases:

installation of mirrors on various surfaces;
gluing protective corners and PVC panels;
fastening shelves and decorative elements to any finishing coating;
installation of tiles.

An undeniable advantage Liquid nails "Moment Installation" are water resistant, so they can be safely used in rooms with high humidity: bathrooms, showers, swimming pools, kitchens and others.

The Moment Montazh brand provides a very large assortment of adhesive mixtures, which differ in scope of use. Properly selected glue makes work easier, guarantees long-term results and safety of materials.

Types and composition

Liquid nails “Moment Installation” According to their composition, they can be divided into two groups:

The first category is based on synthetic resins and solvents. Distinctive feature is great strength and moisture resistance. They are marked MP on the packaging.
Adhesive mixtures from the second group are made on the basis aqueous dispersion polyacrylates. They have a neutral chemical composition, more suitable for installation plastic materials. Such compositions are designated MB in the labeling.

The manufacturer has divided adhesive mixtures into categories. Their composition meets all GOST requirements. The packages indicate the main characteristics, as well as the types of materials for which this adhesive is intended.

More information on the product can be found in the technical information sheet, which is on the official website of the Moment company. Therefore, it will not be difficult to find the desired “Moment Moment”.

To understand all these markings and abbreviations, you should pay attention to some products of the Moment Montazh brand.

"Express MV-50". This glue belongs to the group of acrylates, as indicated by the abbreviation MV. Therefore, it is perfect for working with various raw materials, such as wood, metal, plastic, plaster, ceramics, etc. It can be used for external and internal work. This glue is used when installing decorative products, installing baseboards and window sills. The only thing that needs to be taken into account in the work is that one of the materials being glued together absorbs moisture well.
"Super strong MVP-70." The marking indicates that this glue is acrylic and does not contain solvents. It is suitable for working with a wide range of materials, including foam and PVC. You should not use this glue when working with polypropylene, polyethylene and Teflon. Considering that this glue is from the acrylic family, it is necessary that one of the materials being glued absorbs moisture. Uppercase letter“p” in the marking informs about the color of the adhesive mixture - transparent. The number “70” indicates a high initial bonding force of 70 kg/m². Therefore, it is suitable for fastening heavy and large structures.

"Express Decor MV-45" It has White color, belongs to the group of acrylic adhesives. It is used when working with decorative elements from any materials.
“Universal MP-40” is convenient to use when installing products made of wood, stone, brick, marble, and it also works with glass surfaces. It washes off quite easily.
"Extra-strong MP-55" made on the basis of polyvinyl acetate and carbon resins. This is a fairly strong adhesive mixture that is suitable for fastening and installing heavy structures made of metal, wood, ceramics, and plaster. It can be used for mounting PVC, chipboard, and MDF panels. The peculiarity of this glue is that almost immediately after application, a film forms on it, which seems dry to the touch. It protects the bonding surface from dust accumulation. When materials are combined, the film is destroyed, providing best adhesion. It is important that the working elements no longer move from their place, since the strongest adhesion occurs at the first contact of the surfaces.

Application

Different types of Moment Montazh liquid nails have their own characteristics of use. They also have different release formats. You must carefully read the instructions for use and follow the rules of safe use.

It is worth adhering to the principles of gluing.

The work surface should be cleaned of foreign elements and, if necessary, degreased. The materials to be glued must be room temperature. Working temperature air – not lower than +10°C. Some polymer adhesives are specially made to work in sub-zero temperatures.
It is necessary to cut off the protective seal from the cartridge, then put on the tip and cut its end at an angle of 45° to the desired diameter. After installing the cartridge in construction gun. To do this, you need to press the locking tab, pull the rod towards you, then insert the cartridge into the gun body. Hang the rod back so that the disc rests on the bottom of the cylinder. After a few pulls on the trigger, the glue will come out. To stop the flow of glue, you need to press the blocking tab, which slightly reduces the pressure in the cartridge.

Apply adhesive to one of the surfaces. There are several options for how to do this. For example, spot application is suitable for uneven surfaces. The size of the glue dots is approximately 2x2 cm, the distance between them is 20–30 cm. Another method is a wavy line, which is convenient to use when installing large-area materials, as the initial setting is enhanced. On small or narrow elements, glue is simply applied in a straight strip. When working with some types of glue (“Universal”, “For panels”), application with a roller is possible. This method is convenient when gluing even and smooth materials, especially large sizes. The trowel method is used to create greater surface contact and almost instantaneous holding power. The glue is distributed over the material using a notched trowel (notch depth 0.6 cm), retreating 2.5 cm from the edges.
You need to press tightly and fix the elements for 10–15 minutes. While the glue dries, you can use masking tape or special fasteners for fixation.

When renovating premises, finishing buildings and decorating interiors, it is often necessary to fasten various materials. Glue ceramic tiles, plastic, chipboard, mirrors and even brick quickly and easily using modern look construction adhesive - liquid nails. Due to the content of fine-grained filler in it, it can be used to fasten parts of different materials, and the rubber in the composition is responsible for high ductility. The popularity of such glue among builders quickly gained momentum, because... Liquid nails have many advantages compared to other materials:

fast setting (from several minutes to 24 hours);
resistance to different temperatures;
ease of use;
no need to make holes as for ordinary nails;
moisture resistance;
economical consumption;
wide scope of application;
withstands heavy loads;
affordable price.

There are two types of liquid nails, which differ in composition.

Neoprene, created on the basis of an organic solvent. They have a strong chemical odor and are unsafe for humans. They are moisture resistant.
Acrylic (water-based). They are absolutely harmless, but are not resistant to high humidity and are only suitable for uneven (porous) surfaces.

Liquid nails, depending on the purpose of use and area of application, are divided into universal nails, for tiles, concrete, plastic, mirrors, foam plastic, metal, etc. Each manufacturer indicates the purpose of their product on the packaging. It depends, first of all, on the composition. Of course, despite the large number of advantages of liquid nails, it is easy to buy a product of inadequate quality on the market. This can lead to such unpleasant consequences as poor bonding of the material, rapid loss of strength, bad smell for a long time, etc. Our rating of the best liquid nails contains only trusted manufacturers and products with positive reviews.

Many of those who independently carry out home repairs or are engaged in construction have come across such material as liquid nails. It's nothing more than good glue created on the basis of polymers and synthetic rubber. On the Russian market adhesive composition appeared in the early 90s of the twentieth century, and the name remained a common noun or another name - assembly adhesive.

Adhesive compositions - assistants in construction

Before talking about use, it is worth deciding what types and varieties of adhesive compositions exist and their characteristics. Of all the diversity, two groups stand out:

organic based (hydrocarbon soluble);
on acrylic base(water soluble).

There is a large assortment of mounting adhesives on store shelves. It is intended to work with various materials, for different loads and operating conditions. Compounds range from lightweight and versatile to very strong grip.

Using assembly adhesive

Used for gluing materials during construction, installation and repair work, assembly adhesive can be safely called universal. It can be used to connect:

1. plastic and polymers:

Before you start using the glue, you should read the instructions. Due to shelf life limitations, you should look at the release date. Having decided on what composition will be used, the room should provide temperature regime and forced ventilation.

Instructions for using adhesives describes that work is carried out at a positive temperature, but not less than +5°C. When using organic-based compounds, the room should be ventilated, and ideally, work should be carried out outside the room.

Initially, the surface is prepared. Contaminants and old composition are removed. If necessary, the surface is degreased. If the parts that need to be glued have increased porosity, then they are first primed.

Then the adhesive base is applied. Depending on the parts to be joined, the base is applied in dots or stripes. A continuous strip can be straight, curved (serpentine) or form a grid.

For high-quality application of these compounds, glue guns are used. Tubes are also available for sale. The glue from them is simply squeezed out by hand, but the quality suffers greatly.

Due to this, the composition does not set immediately; there is no need to rush. The connected parts are combined, tightly compressed and maintained under pressure for some time, described in the instructions. Usually it does not exceed three minutes. After which the excess glue must be removed.

The hardening speed of the assembly adhesive depends on its composition and lasts from 11 hours to a day. To hold large and heavy elements, stands or props are installed to prevent lowering. It is better not to touch heavy elements for a week until complete setting occurs.

After which you can carry out further work related to the finishing of fixed items.

You can learn how to glue with liquid nails by watching many videos on the Internet dedicated to this topic. In addition, you can read reviews, tips on selecting glue for the material, etc.

Devices that make working with tubes easier

Almost the entire range of liquid nails produced is packaged in small diameter cylinders with a spout (tubes). Each volume is approximately 310 ml. For ease of extrusion and economical use, they are used glue guns.

Professionals usually use expensive, motorized, electrically driven models. For one-time, infrequent and small-volume work, hand guns are used. Unlike electric models, manual guns have a reverse stroke.

Design of manual models presented on the market in three types:

frame or skeletal;
with a solid body;
with half body.

The gun is easy to use. For this:

By pressing the lever you need to move the piston back, freeing up space under the tube.
The opened tube is placed in the designated place.
By pressing the trigger, the piston is brought to the moving bottom of the assembly adhesive package.
Pushing the trigger with force causes the piston and bottom to move. This pushes the glue out through the spout.
Once the tube is empty, replacing it is easy. You should perform the manipulations starting from point 1.

The best liquid nails

There is no clear advice on this matter. But it is worth paying attention to the following. “Moment Extra Strong” is well suited for foam materials. Its neoprene base can withstand high loads. However, it does not favor smooth plastics and is intended for interior work.

In order to glue ceramic products quick-drying compounds such as “Solvent free” and “Titan VB-50” are required. “LN-930” and “Tigger construction adhesive” wood will help secure the mirror.

Advantages

Flaws

Selection of glue for specific conditions.
Organic-based compositions have:
Strong smell;
upon contact with skin, it causes skin irritation.

Approximate consumption calculation

Each tube contains characteristics and information about average consumption per 1 m2. But usually these values only apply to ideal conditions. Excessive consumption depends on:

surface irregularities and defects;
consistency;
temperature;
humidity;
type of instrument;
employee qualifications.

How to remove adhesive if necessary

Exist various ways removing mounting adhesive. It all depends on the degree of drying. If the adhesive has not yet begun to set, it can be removed with a sponge soaked in warm water or using a mineral-based solvent.

If the glue has hardened, then it will have to be removed using specialized cleaners or mechanically. A scraper or blade is suitable for this. Although there is a high probability of surface damage.

Alternatively, you can heat the glue onto the part. It begins to turn into a viscous state after 55°C. After this, the residue can be easily removed with a scraper.

In general, this construction material has proven itself with positive side. And reviews from consumers are always positive. Learning to work with it is not difficult.

We always have liquid nails at home. Very useful thing, as it turned out. How could we manage without it before, because liquid nails are such a universal thing. It is used constantly and everywhere.
