Installation Instructions
  1. The surface must be clean, dry and free from dust, dirt, greasy film, loose or powdery paint or primer. Primed surfaces should be checked thoroughly. It is recommended to sand through to the base sufrace where mastic will be applied. Clean and then seal with Gunther Prime-N-Seal™. Let thoroughly dry. Gunther Prime-N-Seal™ will add strength to the wall and prevent caustic lime deposits from attacking the mirror backing. Wall and mirror surfaces must be above 60°F. Do not apply on wallpaper, paint, Category I vinyl safety backing or treated woods.
  2. FOR BEST RESULTS: Apply Gunther Premier® Plus in vertical beads on the substrate, the length of the mirror, 5-6” apart. Allow 3” from the mirror edge to begin or end a bead. You can also apply Gunther Premier® Plus in patties 4-5” in diameter for every square foot of mirror surface.
  3. Use a mechanical support system to support mirror during and after Installation.
  4. Gunther Premier® Plus can build out to 2“ for large mirrrors or uneven wall jobs, or can be compressed to 1/32” for mirror overlays or installations requiring close tolerances. MIRROR OVERLAYS: Working with mirror strips can be difficult. For overlays, use Gunther Ultra/Bond® or Premier® Plus to achieve a fast set and strength along with double-faced tape. Ultra/Bond® has the capability to compress to 1/32”, Premier® Plus to 1/16”, providing a professional installation. Double-faced tape is used only for initial adhesion to support the mirror. The mastic is for long term adhesion and strength. Mastic beads of 1/4” to 3/8” thick by 6” long, leaving a 3” gap between where the bead starts will improve curing time. NOTE: Check with mirror manufacturer on recommended double-faced tape.
  5. Easy to apply at temperatures ranging from 60°F to 100°F without auxillary heating equipment.

H.B. Fuller Premier® Plus Mirror Mastic - Installation Instructions

Do not apply mastics in a circle where an air pocket could collect solvents and possibly extract material that could be damaging to the mirror. The best way to apply Premier® Plus from a cartridge is to start from the center and let the mastic naturally expand out as it’s being gunned. Mechanical support systems are recommended for all mirror applications. This includes the use of mechanical fasteners at the top and bottom of the mirror.
