Tenax Transparent Polyester Adhesive Features:

• Fast Cure Time. Tenax  Transparent Polyester Adhesive cures in about 15-20 minutes with a workable time between 8-10 minutes in real world shop and job site applications. That gives plenty of time to get the glue on/between the stone, clamped, and finished correctly before the cure time but sets fast enough to not waste time in the shop or in the field.
• Smooth Consistency. The creamy texture of the Tenax Flowing Polyester Adhesive makes it super easy to work with. Especially when adding color and hardener.
• Great Color. Tenax made flowing stone Polyester Adhesive with the purest polyester resin available. This makes the transparent flowing some of the lightest and transparent polyester glue on the market. In the can it looks very light in color. When spread onto stone, it becomes very clear and transparent.
  The vibrant white and buff colors are great colors too. These are excellent for use as base colors to make earth tones and bright or light colors or they may be used directly as well.
• Easy to Color. Tenax Transparent Polyester Adhesive takes color well and therefore is easy to tint so it can match the stone's color.
• Polishes to a High Gloss. Tenax Transparent Polyester Adhesive polishes just like the stone it is used on. This is extremely important when doing seams, filling cracks, repairing chips, or doing laminations. Using adhesive that reacts to polish just like the stone means uniformity in the finish.
• Extremely Strong Bond. Tenax, using premium resin raw materials, has produced one of the strongest polyester bonds in the stone industry. Fabricators are extremely confident that once bonded, Tenax adhesive will not fail.
• Durable for Years. Tenax Polyester Adhesive is extremely durable after installation. No matter what the homeowner throws at it; water, oils, chemicals, etc, it will stand strong and be as durable as the stone it bonds for years to come.
• Produced More Than 50 years. Tenax has been producing polyester adhesive glues for granite and stone of over 50 years. The successful track record of use and applications have made Tenax a worldwide known company for its quality, consistency in every can, and its long durability.
• Great for Rodding. Tenax Polyester Adhesive is one of the best flowing glues for rodding granite, marble, and other types of stone. Carbon fiberglass rodding, white fiberglass rodding, plastic rodding, and steel rodding can all be used with the Polyester Adhesive to achieve an extremely strong bond to drastically strengthen countertops for transport and installation.
