T-Rex Montage by Soudal: A Suction-Cup Tyrannosaurus for DIY 2026

Soudal’s T-Rex Montage is a powerful mounting adhesive with high initial grip, designed for ease of use and formulated to bond almost any surface. Whether you're a DIY enthusiast or a professional installer, this versatile adhesive delivers the legendary "suction-cup effect" for instant hold and incredible strength once cured. Let’s explore why T-Rex Montage might be the only adhesive you’ll ever need.

What Makes T-Rex Montage Special?

T-Rex Montage is a water-based acrylic adhesive, solvent-free, with high adhesive strength and an extremely high initial grip (over 140 kg/m²). It’s white, emits no harmful fumes, and is safe for indoor use. While designed for interiors, it withstands temperatures from -20°C to +70°C without losing its properties. It bonds to almost all materials—wood, metals, plastics, polystyrene, glass, building materials, insulation, stone, concrete, and more—as long as at least one surface is porous. It does not adhere to PE, PP, PTFE (Teflon®), or bituminous surfaces.

Key Features

• Bonds uneven surfaces perfectly
• Apply directly to just one substrate
• Paintable with water-based paints
• Fills gaps and irregularities
• No pre-treatment needed—just dry, degreased, dust-free surfaces
• Application temperature: 5°C to 30°C
• Open time: 15 minutes
• Available in 380 g cartridge and 200 g tube

How to Use T-Rex Montage

Application Tips

• Use a standard caulking gun for cartridges; cut the nozzle at a 45° angle for controlled beads.
• Apply in dots, beads, or zigzag patterns depending on the material and weight.
• For heavy items like wall decor or mirrors, use a continuous bead along the edges.
• Press firmly for a few seconds to activate the suction effect.
• Allow 24 hours for full cure before stressing the bond.
