- Cartridge preparation: Cut the tip of the cartridge’s screw thread and attach the nozzle. Trim the nozzle to the appropriate diameter for the joint size.
- Application: Use a skeleton or powered gun to apply the sealant into the joint, ensuring strong contact with the surfaces. For deeper joints, it is crucial to use Hodgson Backing Rod to facilitate proper joint formation.
