Applicable by

The surface coming into direct contact with Paintable Acrylic Sealant must be clean, dry and free from all loose materials, dust, dirt, oil, rust and any other contaminants. Non-porous substrates such as metals, glass and plastics should be degreased with a solvent. Plastics can be lightly abraded with emery paper. Poor surface preparation may result in the delamination of the sealant. Gaps exceeding 5mm should be half-filled with backing material before application. Cut tip off cartridge and screw the nozzle onto the cartridge. Cut the tip of nozzle at an angle to achieve the desired bead size. Apply sealant with a caulking gun in a continuous bead to the prepared joint. Use masking tape to get a clean, even sealant line and to eliminate cleaning difficulties on porous surfaces. Be sure to remove the tape before sealant begins to skin Smooth down after application (within 20 minutes) before skin formation occurs, by using a flat or rounded tool, or even a finger, dipped in soapy water. Leave for at least one hour before painting.

Packing

Cartridge of 300 ml.
