How to use a weatherproof sealant
Details of how to use a weatherproof sealant.
- Surface Preparation
Ensure the surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or any other contaminants. Use appropriate cleaning agents if needed to achieve a clean surface.
- Cut the Nozzle
Cut the nozzle of the sealant tube to the required size of the bead.
- Apply the Sealant
Load the sealant tube into a caulking gun and apply a continuous bead of sealant along the joint or gap. Use steady pressure on the gun for a consistent application.
- Tooling
Use a caulking tool or your finger to smooth and shape the sealant for a neat and even finish. Remove excess sealant to create a tidy appearance.
- Curing Time
Allow the sealant to cure as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Keep in mind that curing time may vary based on temperature and humidity levels.
- Check for Proper Sealing
After curing, inspect the sealed area to ensure there are no gaps or voids, and the sealant adheres properly to the surfaces.
Tip: To store Adiseal once opened, leave about 1cm worth of product out of the nozzle and store the tube upright in a cool dry place. Adiseal requires moisture for it to cure. The exposed part out of the nozzle will cure creating a cap. To re-use Adiseal, pull the cured part out or cut the nozzle until the uncured part is reached.
