Full details

The Everbuild Stixall Sealant and Adhesive in Grey is a highly versatile, all-in-one solution for both sealing and bonding tasks, ingeniously combining the strengths of silicone and polyurethane technologies. It delivers powerful initial grab and strong adhesion across diverse surfaces, even in wet conditions, making it an indispensable tool for a wide array of indoor and outdoor projects. However, it's important to note that for heavy overhead applications, the use of mechanical fixings is strongly recommended to ensure optimal security and longevity.

FAQs

Can Stixall be used outdoors?

Yes, Everbuild Stixall is formulated for both interior and exterior applications. It is fully waterproof and weatherproof, making it highly suitable for various outdoor projects.

Does Stixall work on wet surfaces?

Yes, one of the key advantages of Stixall is its ability to be effectively applied to wet surfaces, offering versatility in different working conditions.

Is it possible to paint over Stixall?

Yes, Stixall can be overpainted once it has fully cured. However, it is always recommended to test compatibility by applying paint to a small, inconspicuous area first.

What types of materials will Stixall bond to?

Stixall provides excellent primer-less adhesion to a broad range of common building surfaces, including metals, plastics, glass, concrete, plaster, wood, and painted surfaces.

What is the temperature resistance of Stixall?

Everbuild Stixall is highly resistant to temperature extremes, maintaining its performance in conditions ranging from -40°C to +150°C.

Do I need to use mechanical fixings with Stixall for heavy items?

For heavy items, temporary support is crucial until the adhesive dries. For overhead applications, Stixall should always be used in conjunction with mechanical fixings to ensure safety and long-term security.

Will UV light affect Stixall?

In areas of high UV exposure, some darkening or discolouration of the sealant may occur over time. This is a cosmetic effect and does not impact the product's performance or bonding strength.

Troubleshooting

Bonded item is not holding or falls off.

Ensure adequate adhesive was applied and, for heavy items, provide temporary support until fully cured (typically 24-48 hours depending on conditions). For overhead applications, mechanical fixings are essential.

Adhesive is not curing properly or remains tacky.

Verify that there is sufficient ventilation and that the ambient temperature is within the recommended range. Extremely cold or overly humid conditions can significantly slow the curing process. Check the product's expiry date.

Discolouration or yellowing of the sealant/adhesive after application.

In high UV exposure areas, slight darkening or discolouration may occur. This is a cosmetic characteristic and does not impact the product's performance or bonding capabilities. Consider this factor for aesthetically critical applications.

Paint is not adhering well to the cured Stixall or is cracking.

Always perform a compatibility test with your chosen paint on a small, inconspicuous area before painting the entire application. Ensure the Stixall is fully cured before attempting to paint.

Poor adhesion to a specific surface.

Ensure the surface is thoroughly clean, dry (though it works on wet, dry is better), and free from dust, grease, or loose particles. While Stixall offers primer-less adhesion to most, some very challenging substrates might benefit from a specific primer. Refer to the product datasheet for further guidance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High initial grab and strong bonding power
  • Can be applied effectively to wet surfaces
  • Excellent resistance to weather and chemical exposure
  • Achieves primer-less adhesion on most building materials
  • Compatible with painting once fully cured
  • Formulated without solvents for reduced hazards

Cons

  • Requires mechanical fixings for heavy overhead applications
  • Temporary support is necessary for heavy items until the adhesive fully dries
  • May exhibit slight discolouration in areas of high UV exposure, though performance is unaffected
  • Compatibility testing is advised before overpainting to ensure optimal results

Setup & Application:

  1. Surface Preparation: Ensure all surfaces are clean and free from loose debris. While Stixall performs on wet surfaces, dry conditions generally yield the best bond.
  2. Application: Cut the nozzle to the desired bead size. Apply the sealant/adhesive using a standard mastic gun in continuous beads for sealing or in dots for bonding.
  3. Bonding Heavy Items: When bonding heavy objects, apply sufficient adhesive and provide temporary support, such as clamps or props, until the adhesive is fully cured.
  4. Overhead Applications: For overhead bonding, always supplement the adhesive with mechanical fixings to ensure long-term stability and safety.
  5. Curing: Allow sufficient time for the adhesive to cure completely before placing stress on bonded items. Curing time can vary with temperature and humidity.

Compatibility:

  • Substrates: Offers excellent primer-less adhesion to most common building materials, including metals, plastics, glass, concrete, plaster, wood, and painted surfaces.
  • Overpainting: Stixall can be overpainted. Always conduct a compatibility test on a small, inconspicuous area with your chosen paint before full application.
  • Specific Applications: Avoid sealing the edges of mirrors or plastic sheeting until the adhesive has fully cured to prevent potential issues.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Cleaning: Remove excess uncured Stixall immediately with a suitable cleaner or solvent. Once cured, the material may require mechanical removal by cutting or scraping.
  • Storage: Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its shelf life and effectiveness.
  • UV Exposure: In areas subjected to high UV radiation, the sealant may exhibit slight darkening or discolouration over time. This is a cosmetic change and does not compromise the product's performance or bonding strength.
