Contact adhesive that leaves no brown line on the edge
Pattex Contacto Líquido Transparente (Transparent Liquid Contact) is the colorless version of the classic contact adhesive. It bonds quickly, spreads easily, and solves the same difficult bonds — mixed surfaces, veneers, complicated corners, laminates — but without leaving the characteristic amber line on the edge. It is primarily designed for interior work where the finish is visible.
HOW CONTACT ADHESIVE WORKS: It is applied to both surfaces, allowed to evaporate for 10-15 minutes until dry to the touch, and then joined by pressing firmly. If you join the pieces too soon, it won't bond. And once in contact, repositioning is not possible.
Why choose Transparent Contact
- ✓ Clean finish: doesn't mark the edge, ideal when the joint is visible.
- ✓ Quick bonding and easy to spread, with good bonding power from contact.
- ✓ Resistant to high temperatures and suitable for laminates.
- ✓ Excess can be removed without solvents: let it dry to the touch and remove it with your fingers by rolling it into a ball.
- ✓ Comes out of clothes in the washing machine at normal temperature, without pre-treatment.
