Description

Professional Surface Preparation for High-Strength Bonding

3M VHB Surface Cleaner is a high-performance, fast-evaporating cleaning solution formulated to prepare surfaces for optimum adhesion when using 3M VHB tapes and other bonding products. This cleaner removes oils, light contaminants, processing residues, and general handling soils, ensuring surfaces are clean and ready for high-strength adhesive application.

Engineered for Maximum Bonding Efficiency

When preparing surfaces for pressure-sensitive adhesives, even trace amounts of grease or dust can compromise adhesion. 3M VHB Surface Cleaner penetrates and lifts contaminants while evaporating quickly without leaving behind residue, films, or streaks. This ensures that the adhesive can achieve full surface contact for the strongest, most reliable bond.

Safe, Colourless, and Fast-Evaporating Formula

The cleaner is entirely colourless and engineered to flash off rapidly, minimising downtime during assembly or installation. Its fast-evaporating nature also reduces the risk of moisture entrapment and ensures that surface are ready for bonding within seconds of application.

Suitable for a Wide Range of Substrates

3M VHB Surface Cleaner is compatible with many materials used across industrial and commercial applications, including:

  • Metals
  • Plastics
  • Composites
  • Painted surfaces
  • Glass
  • Signage materials

This makes it ideal for use in transportation, metal fabrication, signage installation, manufacturing, and general bonding preparation.

Ideal Companion Product for 3M VHB Tapes

While effective as a standalone cleaner, this product is specifically recommended for use before applying 3M VHB tapes. Proper surface preparation is essential to achieve the full load-bearing strength, temperature resistance, and durability that VHB tapes are known for.

More Information

Application Instructions

  1. Ensure the working area is well-ventilated.
  2. Apply the cleaner to a clean, lint-free cloth or wipe.
  3. Wipe the surface thoroughly, removing visible grease, dust, and contaminants.
  4. Allow the cleaner to evaporate fully; this typically takes only a few seconds.
  5. Inspect the surface. If heavy contamination remains, repeat the cleaning process.
  6. Once the surface is completely dry, apply 3M VHB tape or adhesive.

Usage Notes

  • Do not dilute - use product directly from the container.
  • Ensure surfaces are fully dry before applying adhesives.
  • Avoid pooling of liquid; rapid evaporation may cause cold spots or moisture condensation.
  • Test on delicate plastics or coatings to confirm compatibility.
  • Flammable - keep away from ignition sources and heat.
