  TYPICAL PROPERTIES FOR DOWSIL 781

  These values are not intended for use in preparing specifications. Please contact your local Dow Corning sales office or your Global Dowsil Connection before writing specifications on this product

  HOW TO USE

  SURFACE PREPARATION

  Ensure that surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry, sound and free from frost, release agents, old sealants and other contaminants which could impair adhesion. All surfaces should be cleaned by wiping with a suitable solvent such as DOWSIL R40 Universal Cleaner on a clean oil- and lint-free cloth before application of sealant.

  Note: When using any solvent, always provide adequate ventilation. Avoid heat, sparks and open flames. Use solvent resistant gloves. Observe and follow all precautions listed on solvent container label.

  MASKING

  Areas adjacent to the joints should be masked with tape to prevent contamination of the substrates and to ensure a neat sealant line. Masking tape should be removed immediately after tooling.

  PRIMING

  All joint surfaces other than glass and glazed ceramics should be primed. Furthermore, for specific advice, please refer to the DOWSIL ® Primers’ Guide or contact one of Dowsil’s Regional Service Centre for technical assistance.
