This Evo-Stik Frame Sealant is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing a reliable, high-performance sealant for interior and exterior building applications. Its key benefit is providing durable, waterproof, and permanently flexible sealing around door and window frames, bonding directly to common construction materials without the need for a primer. A potential consideration is its specific brown color, which may not suit all aesthetic requirements.

This is a silicone sealant and is generally not designed to be painted over. Painting may affect its adhesion and flexibility.
Unopened cartridges typically have a shelf life of 12 months when stored in cool, dry conditions below 25°C. Always check the batch date on the packaging.
Full cure typically takes 24-48 hours, depending on bead size, temperature, and humidity. It is tack-free in approximately 30-60 minutes.
While it provides excellent waterproofing, its primary design is for frames. For specific wet areas like bathrooms and kitchens, consider sealants formulated with anti-fungal properties.
Yes, its neutral cure and weatherproofing properties make it suitable for metal frames, including aluminium, without causing corrosion.
Low modulus silicones are more flexible and designed for joints with significant movement, while high modulus silicones are stiffer and suitable for less dynamic applications. This frame sealant is low modulus.
Ensure the cartridge is properly loaded into the sealant gun and the tip is cut correctly. Check if the inner seal of the cartridge has been punctured.
Verify that the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old sealant. Re-apply ensuring proper surface preparation.
Practice applying a consistent bead on a scrap surface. Maintain a steady hand and even pressure on the sealant gun trigger. A smoothing tool can help achieve a neater finish.
Ensure application is within the recommended temperature and humidity range. Adequate ventilation can also aid curing. Check the product data sheet for specific cure times.
Setup: Ensure you have a standard sealant gun. Cut the nozzle tip at an angle to achieve the desired bead size. Puncture the inner seal if present. Load the cartridge into the sealant gun.
Compatibility: This sealant is compatible with aluminium, hardwood, and uPVC frames. It bonds effectively to blockwork, brick, concrete, and masonry without the need for a primer. For best results, ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose material.
Care: Once cured, the sealant is durable and requires minimal care. Clean application tools and any excess uncured sealant immediately with appropriate solvents as recommended by the manufacturer. For long-term performance, ensure the sealed area is regularly inspected for any signs of damage or wear, although its 25-year durability rating suggests minimal intervention is needed.
