Step 7 · Step 7: The Final Step—Patience!
Every adhesive needs time to cure and achieve its maximum strength. The product label will tell you the specific curing time, which can be anywhere from 24 to 72 hours, depending on the weather. Giving your project this time is essential for long-term success. During this curing period, be sure to keep all foot traffic—both human and paw—off the new treads.
Curing times can be extended in colder temperatures and shortened in warmer, drier conditions.
