MEAN GREEN
MEAN GREEN is cost-effective, versatile, and easy to use. With high solids, this pressure-sensitive adhesive is specially formulated for nearly instant tack and strong bonds that as a result resist heat, cold, and moisture. MEAN GREEN CYLINDERS also produce controlled, lace, or web-type spray patterns. It has a controlled spray pattern that provides a low soak-in rate so more adhesive remains on the surface where it is needed to adhere to similar or dissimilar materials. MEAN GREEN BULK can be used with an existing spraying system, and it can also be brushed or rolled on. It is an extremely versatile adhesive and can be used on a multitude of materials but was designed specifically to be used in duct lining applications.

Directions:
The surface must be clean and free from debris, dust, dirt, grease, etc. Wear goggles, gloves, and protective clothing in addition to following the directions when using this product.
- First, spray, brush, or roll inside of the sheet with a light coat of adhesive.
- Next, apply a thicker coat around the edges. This provides enough wet strength for a good bond.
- Finally, spray a light coat on both the insulation and the metal to use the adhesive as a contact cement.

Spray Tip Assembly Directions
When replacing your spray tip (or troubleshooting a leaking/clogged gun or one that will not stop spraying) … ensure that the spray tip is assembled in the order shown below.
Instructions:
- Place spray tip (No.3) into nut (No. 4). Ensure tip protrudes from nut.
- Place seat (No. 2) into nut (No. 4) with flat side facing (and sitting atop) spray tip.
- Screw assembled spray tip onto spray gun (No. 1).
- Tighten with wrench.
Important: Seat (No. 2) needs to be placed with flat side facing spray tip (protrusion facing spray gun). If the seat is positioned incorrectly, the spray gun may not work properly (leaking, clogging, constant spraying and other problems may arise).
