1. Silicone sealant is preferred over other sealing systems
The silicone sealant is stable in quality and long lasting, unlike the acrylic system. As a result, they are extremely cost-effective, especially when used in kitchens and bathrooms.


2. What is the case for the acid system and the neutral system?
Acidic system: Acidic silicone sealant has excellent adhesion to common substrate surfaces in bathrooms or kitchens such as glass or ceramics.
Neutral system: Neutral sealant must be used when sealing substrates such as metal, plastic or concrete.


3. Can silicone sealants be used as adhesives?
Silicone sealant can be used for sealing and bonding on both sides to maintain elasticity. Silicone sealants cannot be used as adhesives, which are generally more rigid.


4. What is the compatibility of silicone sealant with the surface of the coating or coating?
Most silicone sealants are not painted. If you want to paint, choose a hybrid sealant or acrylic sealant. It is recommended to apply a coating to the surface before applying the silicone sealant.

Correct use of sealant
1. How to treat the surface of the substrate before sealing?
The area of the substrate in contact with the sealant must be kept clean and dry and free from dust, dirt, rust, grease and other contaminants. Non-porous substrates must be cleaned with a clean, white, lint-free cloth and solvent. As soon as the residual solvent evaporates, wipe it off with a clean, dry cloth as soon as possible. Before sizing, cut the tube mouth, then attach the nozzle and cut the mouth to the desired size. The sealant can be applied in spots or layers and needs to be exposed to moisture in the air to cure.


2. What issues should I pay attention to when applying glue?
Make sure the sealant is not deeper than the width. If the gap between the two substrates is large, inserting the strip is required to improve the performance of the sealant. The sealant is flattened with a suitable tool to make the surface more aesthetically pleasing; at the same time, the sealant is pressed into the joint surface to help eliminate cavitation or voids in the bond layer.


3. How to remove the cured sealant?
Use a sharp blade to scrape off the cured sealant.
