Glue edges to a base with back print
Hello Guys
i Have a very rare question...
recently i start doing Sublimation on clear base material, works great
to back print i use a solution from Basler Lack witch is very nice to apply and bonds to the epoxy better then anything. BUT, BUT, when i need to preglue the edges with Loctite my problems arrive... i cant get a consistent glue with the edges, somtimes when i put the board on the press the edges on the curves jump out from the base a simply ruin a board, 2 times happen
Any one with experience like mine???

is it cyanoacrylite glue, aka crazy/super glue?
What kind of edges? I noticed depending on the edges you have to use more or less of the glue. The made in austria ones that I had for a bit, they would pop off easier, not to mention rust in seconds flat. The coated edges from CDW seem to hold better, even to back-flooded stuff.
Also, the closer your edge is truly bent to your shape, the easier it will secure itself down. Last couple boards I spent way more time matching edges to curves, and it only took a few drops of glue to hold it down.

the main problem is not curing the glue, it get cuerd fast, the problem is the bonding, it dosent bond to the ink, and the ink is epoxi ink more then cured...
i bought a fast glue at ispo, from a greman manufacture and it bonds very fast, so fast and pratacly to everything but to this ink is impossibe...
i realy dont know what to do... ill try a diferent ink from another manufacturer

Why don't you try using epoxy to hold the edges. Epoxy seems to still bond to your base material. Just mix up a small amount (same expoy you use for the rest of the ski) and use a small brush to apply a small amount to the edges and remove the excess so the core can still sit flush. Obviously this will take longer to dry but will be cheaper the ruining more boards. Prior does there edges this way. I have not done them this way myself so there may be a better solution for you but this should work.

Mervin is using a stronger two part glue... like epoxy it is the base glue and then you spray on the "activator" and it cures instantly. I like superflue cuz the excess is easy to wipe off or it evaporates just not ss tough a bond... maybe there is super quick epoxy out there to try?? Id love to just use jb-weld which is two part with metal in it

second bottle is just accelerator.hugocacola wrote:In this movie Mervin Manufacture uses 2 components glue, check it out at 2:35 minute.
first she use one bottle with one color tip, then she use another one to finish gluing....
Hugo, make sure your edges are bent to shape, so that the glue is not holding the shape. Your edge should stay on regardless of whether or not the glue doesn't stay bonded in the press. The glue should be thought of as temporary any way.

It's just cyanoacrylate and accelerator. There are different types of accelerator available, I don't know which one mervin uses, but I do know for a fact that they are using cyanoacrylate.

Using a cyanoacrylite glue, to position the edges - which hold it quite firmly, never had any problems with the edge coming off - Ive noticed that it causes a slight dis coloration in the bases (white base, that becomes slightly opaque). Its barely noticeable, but still noticeable...even after the board is pressed, and you have a detailed look @ the base. Havent noticed it in the black bases.... its prob nothing, and me just being picky.
Cheers
