The acetone-activated adhesive is the best adhesive in the market for fixing asset tags and labels.
It comes with glue already attached to the back of the Tag but in an inactive form. The glue
needs to be activated using acetone solution for it to stick on the surface being placed.
Below is the step to follow;
- Clean and dry the surface to be tagged to remove dust, grease, oil, or any form of dirt. Using a dumb cloth and a mild detergent is highly recommended
- Peel off the paper lining at the back of the asset tag covering the acetone-activated adhesive.
- Dip a small brush in acetone and quickly apply it over the adhesive, ensuring it all gets wet.
- Place the Tag on the surface to be tagged and press gently
- Allow to dry for a few days, and the Tag should be firmly fixed
- N/B: Acetone is volatile; hence vaporizes quickly. It is also highly flammable hence the need to keep it from heat.
