Limitations
- Silicone Sealant Silicone Sealant is not recommended for porous substrates such as concrete, stone or marble.
- Do not use Silicone Sealant on bituminous substrates based on natural rubber, chloroprene or EPDM or on building materials which might bleed oils, plasticizer or solvents.
- Because acetic acid is released during curing, it can corrode mirror silver and sensitive metals such as copper, brass and lead. Silicone Sealant is not suitable for food contact application.
- This product is neither tested nor represented as suitable for food, medical or pharmaceutical uses.
Directions
- Surfaces must be clean, dry and free from grease, dust and frost. Non-porous surfaces: aluminum, glass, etc., should be cleaned with a suitable solvent for the substrate. Adhesion to plastic and metal surfaces can be improved by using a primer.
- Cut nozzle or tip.
- Apply at surface pushing sealant ahead of nozzle or tip. Assure contact with both sides of joint.
- Complete any additional tooling and remove excess sealant with wet stick or knife immediately. Clean excess caulk off surface immediately with clean rag.
- Sealant cures dry to touch in 30 minutes and fully cures in 24 hours. Remove excess sealant with a razor blade (single edge) or knife.
