5 SECURING THE DOLLY
5.1 USING 10mm, 14.2mm OR 20mm DOLLIES
1
Prepare the surface of the dolly and the coating where the dolly is to be applied by roughening with
the abrasive pad. Then de-grease and clean both surfaces using a suitable solvent and allow to dry.
®
2
Mix equal quantities of the two part Araldite adhesive and apply a thin, even layer to the prepared
surface of the dolly.

®
Araldite adhesive is supplied by Elcometer however, other adhesives can be used - see Section 15
‘Adhesives’ on page 21.

Press the dolly firmly onto the prepared test surface and apply pressure to squeeze out excess
adhesive which should then be wiped clean.
