Adhesive, Grout & Sealant | Rough Old Glass

Bonding

Most installs are carried out by bonding mirror panels to a clean, dry, primed substrate rather than using mechanical fixings. Although for overhead installs we would always recommend the addition of mechanical fixings too.

It's common within the glass industry to use a Solvent Free Mirror Adhesive or a Neutral Cure Low Modulus pure Polymer Silicone to bond and seal mirror panels.

We supply Rough Old Glass mirror panels with a foil backing film, rather than a PVC or PET safety film. Foil is compatible with Mirror Adhesive and Neutral Cure Low Modulus Silicone.

If you feel uncomfortable installing large panels with a bonding adhesive only, please specify fixing holes when placing your order.

Sealing

You must seal the edges of any panels that are likely to be exposed to moisture. You can use a neutral cure silicone or a 2 part epoxy grout to do so. We do not recommend that you use the grout as an adhesive.
