FAQs
Can I paint over the OB1 Black Sealant?
Once fully cured, OB1 sealant can typically be painted over. However, it is advisable to test compatibility with your chosen paint on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure good adhesion and finish.
What is the shelf life of OB1 Black Sealant?
Unopened tubes typically have a shelf life of 12-18 months when stored correctly in a cool, dry environment. Always check the manufacturing date on the packaging.
Is this sealant suitable for use in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes, the waterproof and weatherproof formula makes it ideal for sealing joints and gaps in bathrooms and kitchens where moisture is present.
How long does it take for the sealant to cure?
Drying and curing times vary depending on temperature, humidity, and bead thickness. Typically, it skins over in about 15-30 minutes and fully cures within 24-48 hours.
Can I use this sealant for structural bonding?
OB1 is designed for sealing, bonding, and filling. While it offers strong adhesion, it is not intended as a primary structural adhesive for load-bearing applications. Consult product specifications for load-bearing capabilities.
What surfaces should I avoid using this sealant on?
While versatile, avoid using on surfaces that are constantly immersed in water or exposed to extreme chemical environments without prior testing. Always test on sensitive materials like certain plastics or coated surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Sealant not dispensing smoothly
Ensure the nozzle tip is cut correctly and the inner seal is fully punctured. Check that the sealant gun is functioning properly.
Poor adhesion to a surface
Verify the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose material. Ensure the product is applied within its recommended temperature range and cure time is allowed.
Sealant remains tacky after application
This can occur in very humid conditions or if applied too thickly. Ensure adequate ventilation. If uncured, wipe away excess and reapply. Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
Difficulty achieving a clean finish
Use a smoothing tool or a wet finger (dipped in soapy water for easier glide) immediately after application to create a neat bead. Clean up excess before it cures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Ensure the sealant gun is loaded with the 290ml OB1 tube.
Cut the nozzle tip to the desired bead size, typically at a 45-degree angle.
Puncture the inner seal of the tube.
Apply steady pressure to the sealant gun to dispense the adhesive.
Compatibility:
OB1 adheres strongly to a wide range of common building materials, including concrete, brick, stone, wood, metal, glass, and many plastics. It is recommended to perform a small test application on an inconspicuous area of the substrate to confirm adhesion and compatibility, especially with sensitive materials or painted surfaces.
Care:
Store unused sealant in its original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Ensure the nozzle is capped or sealed to prevent the product from curing in the tube.
Clean up any uncured excess sealant immediately with a damp cloth or appropriate solvent, following manufacturer guidelines.
Cured sealant can be removed mechanically or by using specialized sealant removers.
