Being a long time Wilsonart distributor of their HPL & adhesives we have some of our fabricators experiencing some de-lamination issues recently. I just want to remind the industry this is a very high solids, very low VOC product (to be Calif. compliant). This product is not as forgiving as the good old WA800 high VOC product. 3.0 dry grams per sq/ft coverage is the minimum. Dry time is 3-5 minutes. Open time is no more that 30 minutes. 60-65 degree minimum when using. Make sure oil & water traps are functioning properly.
Use the recommended spray guns & pressures. This is a cadillac contact if used properly. If used correctly there should never be a failure.

Don't forget PRESSURE. The old days of using a block of wood or a three head flooring roller are over.

Absolutely correct Robert B. Applying UNIFORM downward pressure (30-40 psi minimum) is critical.
