Ecostick 1804 vs 9015STHV
9015STHV
Strength: Medium. Ideal for stitched goods, where the glue couples and prepares two sides before stitching.
Uses: Ideal for coupling and folding leather, hybrid leather, fabrics, canvas, cardboard. Great in the production of belts, shoe uppers, bags, wallets, heels, insoles, and more.
Open Time: 2-4 hours
Once glue is applied you have ~4 hours of sticky, cold bonding. After 4 hours you can reactivate glue for 8-10 seconds at 60°-70° Celsius (140°-160° Fahrenheit). Reactivation can be done for up to 48 hours.

Color: Clear transparent. Over time glue will slightly yellow.
Instructions for use: Apply the adhesive to both sides. Let dry until the film of the adhesive becomes transparent. If more then 4 hours go by, reactivate glue at 60°-70° Celsius (140°-160° Fahrenheit) couple and press together. Final strength reached at ~4 days.
Application tools: Can be sprayed with a spray machine or applied by a brush or spatula.

1804
Strength: High. Ideal for permanent bonding. No stitching required. Better performance on oily leathers and difficult materials.
Uses: Ideal for coupling and folding leather, hybrid leather, fabrics, canvas, cardboard, for gluing EVA, nylon, PVC, rubber, greasy leather with grease level up to 15%. Great where no stitching is required.
Open Time: 30 minutes
Once glue is applied you have 30 minutes of sticky, cold bonding. After 30 minutes you can reactivate glue for 8-10 seconds at 60°-70° Celsius (140°-160° Fahrenheit). Reactivation can be done for up to 48 hours.
