WET-STICK

The WET-STICK is a revolutionary self-adhesive corner reinforcement that simplifies the finishing of 90° external corners. Thanks to its water-activated adhesive applied to the inside of the flanges, it bonds directly to plasterboard without the need for joint compound or mechanical fixings. Its small heel profile guarantees a perfectly straight corner and facilitates finishing with a single smoothing coat.

Technical Features

  • Water-activated composite adhesive applied to the inside of the flanges
  • Length of 305 cm per strip
  • Side dimensions: 38 x 38 mm
  • Designed for 90° external corners
  • Small ribbed heel profile for straight, clean edging
  • Fixation without joint compound or fasteners
  • Adhesive activation in 45 seconds after spraying

Application Tips

Begin by bending the reinforcement at your desired corner so it fits perfectly into your 90° angle. Then generously spray water onto the inside of the flanges with a spray bottle. Wait 45 seconds to allow the adhesive to fully activate.

Position the reinforcement on the external corner with firm, even pressure to ensure optimal adhesion. Once in place, reapply pressure along the entire length. The small ribbed heel profile then facilitates finishing: a single coat of joint compound is sufficient for a flawless corner, ready for painting or wallpapering.

This system eliminates multiple handling steps and significantly speeds up projects, particularly valued in renovations where time savings are critical.

Pro tips

For optimal adhesive activation, use a pump spray bottle rather than an electric sprayer: you have better control over the amount of water applied. Excess water can soften the paper and complicate installation. On site, always keep the WET-STICK in its packaging until the moment of use to prevent premature glue activation due to ambient humidity. For angles that deviate slightly from 90°, adjust the fold before activation: once the glue is moistened, you have limited room for adjustment.

Pygmalion tip: in humid rooms or on sites where humidity levels are high, prepare your lengths in advance and store them in a sheltered location. Water-activated adhesive remains sensitive until the adhesive is completely dry. For large heights, work with two people: one operator positions the top whilst the other aligns and presses the bottom section.

FAQ

Can WET-STICK be used on surfaces other than plasterboard?

WET-STICK is specifically designed for plasterboard and drywall. Water-activated adhesive works optimally on these porous substrates. For other materials, check adhesion first on a small test area.

How long should you wait before applying finish coat after installation?

You can apply the finish coat immediately after pressing the WET-STICK into place and checking its alignment. The adhesive sets quickly and the reinforcement remains stable during finish coat application.

How much water should be sprayed to activate the adhesive?

Spray enough to evenly moisten the entire adhesive strip without saturating the paper. A thin, even coat is sufficient. Then wait 45 seconds for the adhesive to fully activate before positioning the reinforcement.

Is WET-STICK suitable for humid rooms such as bathrooms?

WET-STICK provides mechanical corner protection and can be used in humid rooms once properly finished and painted. Ensure you apply a finish coat suitable for humid environments and appropriate paint to guarantee the durability of the entire system.

Can WET-STICK be cut to the desired length?

Yes, WET-STICK can be easily cut to the desired length with a utility knife or scissors, allowing you to minimise waste and adapt precisely to the height of your walls or your specific needs.
