Latex-Based Adhesive for Tufted Rugs
This latex-based adhesive is perfect for securing the backing of hand-tufted rugs. After application, it provides a strong yet flexible hold, helping the yarn stay firmly in place.
The 1000 ml liquid latex adhesive bottle is designed not only for its high-quality contents but also for maximum practicality during use. The transparent measurement strip on the side lets you see exactly how much adhesive is left in the bottle at any given time. This makes it easy to track usage and plan ahead for refills, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted workflow.
Key Features:
- Strong adhesion – reliably holds the yarn in place on the fabric
- Flexible yet durable – doesn’t crack, moves with the rug
- Thinner consistency – easy to spread, especially with a paint roller
- Rubbery finish – slightly rubbery to the touch after drying, but not sticky
- Economical – a little goes a long way for good coverage
Important Notes:
- Contains 0.7% ammonia, which may cause a mild sharp odor during use – always work in a well-ventilated area
- Flammable – keep away from heat or open flame
- Use gloves for safe handling
- Not washable after drying – clean tools immediately after use
Shelf Life After Opening:
3–6 months if:
- Stored in a cool (5–20°C), dry place
- Tightly sealed after each use
- Kept clean from water, dust, or other contaminants
When Not to Use It:
- If the adhesive becomes thick, stringy, or rubbery, it has expired
- If it separates into layers, the quality has deteriorated
- Do not freeze – store in a frost-free location
How to Use
Application:
If working on a flat surface, lay a polypropylene backing mesh over the rug. If applying vertically, securely attach the mesh to the primary fabric.
Apply the latex evenly across the back of the rug using a brush or paint roller. Use firm but not excessive pressure to avoid deep penetration into the yarn.
Drying Time:
Let it dry for approximately 12–24 hours before moving or trimming.
