 Surface Preparation

Lack of surface preparation is the key reason for adhesion failure.  

  • Remove dirt, grease or moisture from surface to be sealed or bonded.  Allow surface to dry thoroughly.  

  • Surfaces can be difficult to adhere once they receive sanding or chemical treatment.  Minimize use of these and similar processes.  Priming these surfaces before applying sealants can aid in adhesion.

  • Suggested application thickness is ¼” (6mm) or less.

  • Length of time for full cure depends upon thickness of application and other factors including temperature & humidity.
