Preparation
Ensure the surface is clean and free from any loose material, standing water, or contaminants that may impair the bond. Non-porous surfaces such as aluminum must be cleaned with a suitable product. For applications where some movement will be exhibited i.e. construction joints, the minimum joint dimensions should be 6mm x 6mm with the maximum dimensions being 25mm wide by 12mm deep. Where deeper joints are found, depth can be reduced using a suitable backer rod. Areas of perimeter pointing where a fillet is to be applied, the minimum measurement across must be 10mm with a minimum depth of 6mm. If conditions are suitable for application ensure joints are properly prepared.
Application
We recommend testing a small area to ensure compatibility, always follow the manufacturer's instructions found on the packaging.
- Apply sealant firmly into the joint using an application gun
- Ensure a good solid fill is achieved
- Once applied, sealant can be tooled to required finish
- A degree of natural shrinkage will occur as a result of drying so it is advisable to apply the sealant slightly proud of the required level to allow for this
Each cartridge contains sufficient to cover approximately 11 metres of a 6mm x 6mm joint, excluding wastage.
