Help! Water on Probond

Guys I am sheeting some foam parts with ProBond. I have heard that you need to put water on the parts to get a good bond. Attached is a picture of how I went about this. I need input to let me know if I'm on the right track here. Looking for you wealth of know how here. Thanks for any advice you can give. waterglue.jpg

I'm guessing this is a little humor but on the off chance it's not, you could have sprayed some water on one side of the parts to be bonded. If you didn't, no prob as there is usually plenty of humidity to aid in the curing.....
