Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of removably adhering a non-conductive member to a conductive member comprising the steps of placing an electrode on the non-conductive member. The electrode overlies matting surfaces of the conductive and non-conductive members. A reheatable adhesive is applied between matting surfaces of the conductive and non-conductive members and a high frequency electric field is applied between said electrode and said conductive member sufficient to cure the adhesive. The non-conductive member may be removed from the conductive member by applying a high frequency electric field between the electrode and said conductive member sufficient to soften the adhesive and removing the non-conductive member from the conductive member.
