KARO welded | Artificial leather for effective wall coverings and upholstery

The combination of artificial leather, an intermediate layer of PUR foam and the backing fleece is welded in a check pattern at high frequencies. The check size is approx. 6 cm x 6 cm and runs diagonally. The KARO welded artificial leather is used as wall cladding or as upholstery, mainly outdoors in boat and yacht equipment, in caravan and vehicle construction as well as in the home.

We recommend the solvent-free UNI glue 140 for gluing.
You can create templates in advance for areas that are difficult to access. Our stencil film is ideally suited for this.

When processing the wall and ceiling cladding directly on the boat wall (e.g. GRP) it can be exposed to strong sunlight come to light through. This is not a defect, but is explained by the composition and construction of the hull.

Cleaning

Use light soapy water, rinse with clean water, dry with a cloth. Do not use organic solvents.

Processing

The material should be glued. To do this, cut KARO welded generously to the surfaces accordingly. Then apply the solvent-free UNI-Glue 140, about 2-3 cm back from the edges, to the surfaces to be glued in stages. Allow the adhesive to flash off a little – observe the data sheet (supplied). After a given time, KARO welded, also in stages, place in the still semi-damp adhesive bed, correct if necessary and then press firmly. Cut the edges, apply a little glue, let it dry briefly, glue on the PVC mounting rails and insert the KARO welded.
