Surface preparation
Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, oil and dust.
Surface treatment depends on the specific nature of the substrates and is crucial for a long lasting bond.

Consider that these suggestions are based on experience and have in any case to be verified by tests on original substrates.
