Redarc ABS Mount User manual

  • Hello! I have reviewed the user guide for REDARC ABS mounts (SMI9001, SMI9002, SMI9003, and SMI9007). This document provides valuable information on installing these mounts for solar panels on RVs and boats without drilling. It explains the use of specific primers, adhesives, and techniques to ensure a robust and watertight installation. I am ready to help you with any questions or doubts about it.
  • What type of adhesive is required?
    What primers are needed?
    How thick should the adhesive be?
