FAQs
What surfaces can this sealant bond to?
This multi-surface sealant offers strong adhesion to a wide variety of common building materials, including wood, metal, concrete, brick, plaster, glass, and many plastics.
Is this sealant suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the OB1 Silver Construction Sealant & Adhesive features a waterproof and weatherproof formula, making it ideal for both interior and exterior applications.
How long does it take for the sealant to cure?
Curing time varies depending on bead size, temperature, and humidity. Typically, it will skin over within minutes and fully cure within 24-48 hours for most applications. Refer to product packaging for specific details.
Can I paint over the sealant once it has cured?
While this sealant is designed for durable finishes, painting over cured sealant is generally not recommended as it may affect adhesion and flexibility. Test on a small area first if painting is essential.
What is the shelf life of the sealant?
Unopened tubes, stored correctly in a cool, dry place, typically have a shelf life of 12-18 months. Once opened, it is best to use the tube within a few months, ensuring the nozzle is sealed to prevent drying.
Do I need a special tool to apply this sealant?
Yes, this sealant comes in a tube designed for use with a standard sealant gun, which allows for controlled and consistent application.
What does the 'silver' colour refer to?
The 'silver' colour refers to the cured finish of the sealant itself. This metallic appearance is suitable for projects where colour matching with silver or metallic elements is desired.
Troubleshooting
Sealant not dispensing from the tube
Ensure the inner seal has been properly punctured and the nozzle is cut. Check that the tube is correctly loaded into the sealant gun and that the gun's trigger mechanism is engaged.
Poor adhesion to surface
Verify that the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, or any contaminants. Ensure the surface is porous enough for good grip or has been appropriately prepared. Test adhesion on a small area if unsure.
Sealant is too stringy or difficult to apply smoothly
Ensure the product is within its shelf life and has been stored correctly. Extreme temperatures during application can affect viscosity. Try applying with a more consistent speed and pressure.
Sealant skinning over too quickly
This can happen in warm or dry conditions. Try to work in smaller sections and smooth the bead immediately after application. Ensure proper ventilation but avoid direct strong drafts.
