Application Situation

Cell phone antennas.

Application Method

Surface preparation on the plates was done with a grinder and the tank was done with MBX Bristle Blaster. After application, the plates were held in place using 80lb. magnets placed underneath, and 'Gorilla' tape across the top until the Belzona 1111 had cured.

Belzona Facts

Using 1kg of Belzona 1111 to mount each 4' X 12" plate is very cost effective when considering both the value of the antennas being mounted on them, and the strength of the Belzona 1111. Being a cold curing product, it is as if it was designed for such applications.
