INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE PROPER USE OF ACRYLIC SEALANT
Are you a professional concerned with creating quality seals to seal your door frames and ceilings? Do you want to fill your cracks in the most efficient and straightforward way possible? When using acrylic sealant, certain basic rules should be observed:
• take care not to store acrylic sealant at too low temperatures (risk of freezing)
• check that your product can be used under particular conditions (e.g. safe for food-preparation areas, etc.)
• make sure that the applicable surface is clean and dry
• if the surface is too porous, you can apply a first diluted layer (which must be left to dry for at least 30 minutes), in order to reinforce the adhesion of your final joint
• apply the sealant with a manual or pneumatic gun, smooth it using a spatula
• remove overflows of fresh putty with a damp cloth
• clean your tools with water immediately after use
• avoid water contact with the joint during drying
