How to Use

Use in a well ventilated area. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

    • For Adhesive or Gasketing Use

    • Apply adhesive/sealant using caulking gun to one surface and mate the surfaces before skin forms.
    • Minimum adhesive thickness should be 0.2mm. Ensure some residual external air contact to enable curing.

    For Joint Sealing Use

    • Apply sealant using caulking gun and tool immediately, forcing sealant into the joint.
    • Remove masking before sealant skins.
