Docking or mounting - which adhesive to choose for stucco molding

Dear friends, due to frequent questions from installers, we would like to once again provide you with instructions for installing stucco molding. We remind you that the installation of stucco decoration made of polyurethane, rubber, polystyrene is recommended to be done with professional adhesives, which guarantee a reliable connection, as well as a long service life. Very often, craftsmen skimp on glue, and subsequently cracks occur at the joints, or the decor completely lags behind the base. To ensure that this does not happen and everything is clear, we recommend using 2 types of glue, namely mounting and joining . We all want that after purchasing stucco decor (cornices, moldings, ceiling rosettes and other decors) it doesn’t turn out that everything collapses and crumbles. And this task, as it seems simple, was glued and painted, but that was not the case... We strongly recommend that you familiarize yourself with the types of adhesive compositions that we offer in our assortment.

Mounting, used for gluing polyurethane stucco molding to solid substrates. This is a thick acrylic adhesive designed for gluing surfaces; its operating temperature ranges from +10C to 35C. From us you can buy mounting adhesive putty Adefix P5 (Adefix, Belgium), as well as mounting adhesive FDP600 Decofix Pro. This product is produced by the Belgian company NMC and Orac Decor. Glue putty is ideal for installing stucco molding with glue and fixing decorative items with self-tapping screws. They can not only glue products, but also putty joints, joints, etc. The glue is white and can be painted after drying. Glue consumption 310 ml. is 7-8 meters, volume 5000ml is 48 meters. There is additional Hydro mounting adhesive for outdoor use and in wet areas. All these glues are time-tested and are guaranteed not to let you down over time.

There is a mandatory point - a connecting one, used for gluing the joints of polyurethane products to each other. This glue is called “cold welding”, due to the fact that it “melts” the joints of the product making them monolithic. We always have only one type of this glue in stock, the joining adhesive for stucco molding Decofix Extra FX 200 from Orac Decor (Belgium). The use of joint adhesive when installing polyurethane stucco decoration (cornices, moldings) is mandatory. The consumption of glue with a volume of 80ml is 40 meters, with a volume of 310ml. is 150 meters. After the glue hardens after 24 hours, the stucco molding can be painted.
