siding, flashing, air conditioners and bathroom and kitchen counters
|
| Limitations | Not
intended for under water use. Do not apply when rain is expected. Keep

| Surface Preparation | Surface
must be clean, dry and free from dirt, dust, grease, oil, mildew, wax,
loose paint and old caulking material. Prime bare surfaces before
caulking.
|
| Application | Apply
only when sealant and surface temperatures are above 50ºF (10ºC). Cut
nozzle at a 45º angle to desired thickness of bead. Apply with a
standard or dripless caulking gun. Use steady pressure to completely
fill joints. For a neat appearance, smooth bead with a moistened brush or cloth. Remove excess material before cured using a water
moistened cloth. For best results, cured beads should be between
1/8" - 1/2" wide and 1/8" - 1/4" deep. Use backing
rod or back-up filler such as Ethafoam for cracks deeper than 1/4".
