Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Surface Preparation: Ensure the surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, oil, and loose particles. Use a solvent or cleaner appropriate for the surface to remove any contaminants. Masking tape can be used to create clean lines.
- Application: Cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to the desired bead size. Insert the cartridge into a caulking gun. Apply the sealant smoothly and evenly into the gap.
- Finishing: Smooth the sealant with a wet finger or a smoothing tool before it skins over. Remove any masking tape immediately after smoothing.
- Curing: Allow the sealant to cure completely. Curing time will vary depending on temperature and humidity; refer to the product instructions for specific details.
