Unopened cartridges typically have a shelf life of 12 months when stored in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight.

Cure time depends on temperature and humidity. A skin will typically form within 10-20 minutes, but full cure can take 24 hours or more for thicker applications.

Low modulus silicones are more flexible and have better adhesion to a wider range of materials, including those with different expansion rates. High modulus silicones are less flexible but can be stronger and are often paintable.

This product is generally used for construction and weather sealing. For shower enclosures, a specific anti-fungal sanitary silicone is usually recommended to prevent mold growth.

Ensure the nozzle is cut correctly and the release mechanism on the sealant gun is disengaged. Check that the plunger is fully engaged with the cartridge base.

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from any contaminants like dust, grease, or old sealant. For porous surfaces, a primer may be necessary.

While this product has extended tool downtime, ensure you are working in appropriate conditions. Reduce the length of the joint being tooled at one time if necessary.
