APPLICATION

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

All surfaces must be dry and dust free. All loose surface coatings and old sealant and mastic joints, should be removed. Glass, metal and aluminium should be cleaned with a cleaner.

APPLICATION METHOD / TOOLS

Reference must be made to the recommended joint ratios. Reduce joint depth using Expanding Foam or Joint Backer Rod. Furthermore, ensure that the joint design permits adhesion to two surfaces. Cut the tip of the cartridge with a sharp blade, taking care not to damage the thread. Apply nozzle and cut at an angle, with an opening slightly larger than the gap to be sealed. Apply using a  sealant gun. Best results will be obtained by keeping an even pressure on the gun trigger and keeping the gun at an angle. Smooth down within 10 minutes. To ensure a proper bond, always smooth the sealant down using a spatula with a soap and water solution.

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Uncured sealant: white spirit. Cured sealant: EVERFLEX SILICONE EATER.
