3M™ Super 77™ Multipurpose Spray Adhesive
3M™ Super 77™ Multipurpose Spray Adhesive provides fast, reliable bonding across a wide range of lightweight materials. Its aggressive initial tack helps materials grab quickly, while the available open time gives installers an opportunity to position components accurately before creating the final bond.
Designed for professional and general-purpose applications, Super 77 combines fast drying with low soak-in. This helps create clean bonds without excessive adhesive penetrating porous materials. 3M lists applications across materials including paper, cardboard, fabric, lightweight foams, plastics, metal and wood.
Its convenient spray application also makes it particularly useful when bonding larger surface areas where applying conventional adhesive by hand would take considerably longer.
Why Choose 3M Super 77 Spray Adhesive?
Fast Initial Grab
Super 77 provides an aggressive initial tack, helping materials stay in position quickly after application.
Multipurpose Performance
One adhesive can tackle a wide variety of lightweight materials, making it a useful addition to an installer’s toolkit.
Fast Drying
The fast-drying formulation helps reduce waiting time and keeps installation work moving.
Adjustable Positioning Time
Depending on the application, 3M specifies an extended bonding window, giving installers time to position materials before completing the bond.
Low Soak-In
The formulation reduces excessive penetration into porous surfaces. This helps produce cleaner, more consistent adhesive bonds.

Its versatility makes Super 77 particularly useful for tradespeople who want one dependable adhesive for several different jobs.
Fast, Clean Spray Application
Applying adhesive across large surfaces using a brush or cartridge can take considerable time. A spray adhesive distributes the product quickly and consistently across the bonding area.
Super 77 combines this convenient application with strong initial grab. The low soak-in formulation also helps prevent excessive adhesive penetration, particularly when working with lightweight or porous materials.
The result is a faster installation with less time spent manually spreading adhesive.
Using 3M Super 77
Surfaces should be clean, dry and free from dust, grease and contaminants before application.
Apply an even coat across the required bonding area and follow the instructions supplied with your particular 3M Super 77 product. Application technique and open time can vary according to the substrate and product format.
For a strong permanent bond, older 3M Spray 77 guidance recommends coating both surfaces and allowing solvent to flash off before assembly.
Always follow the instructions and safety information printed on the specific product supplied.
Important Information for XPS & Polystyrene
Although Super 77 can bond many foam and insulation materials, don’t assume compatibility with every XPS or EPS product.
3M notes that not all of its spray adhesives are compatible with polystyrene. Solvent-containing adhesives can also affect some polystyrene products.
Older 3M technical guidance specifically states that when Spray 77 is used with expanded polystyrene foam, additional open time should be allowed so most of the solvent can evaporate before bonding.
For an underfloor heating overlay-board installation, always confirm compatibility with the specific board manufacturer before application.
