APPLICATION:
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
► With your rug firmly hung to your tufting frame, apply a coat of glue TN-100 with a paint roller or a disposable brush. An even pressure on your roller will ensure a correct and proper distribution of the glue. Do not apply too much pressure as it would only make the glue to penetrate too deeply into the yarn. The ideal penetration level is determined by the density of your tufting fabric, the number of threads used, and how tight your stitches are. The perfect pressure should allow the glue to penetrate slightly thru the primary backing in order to adequately bond it with the yarn base.
► Allow the latex to dry for 12 to 36 hours before unhooking and handling your final piece.
► If you wish to add a secondary backing to your rug, in order to make it stronger and extend its longevity, we recommend to use the glue TN-200 as a second layer.
