How to use sealant better

The use of sealant mainly includes the following key steps:

Preliminary preparation and gap cleaning

Use rags, shovels and other tools to clean cement mortar, dust and other impurities in the gap to ensure that the gap is clean.
Install the sealant on the glue gun and adjust the glue gun nozzle according to the size of the gap.

Standardize construction operations

Apply plastic tape on both sides of the gap to prevent the sealant from overflowing.
Use a glue gun to squeeze the sealant evenly. After completion, use tools such as scrapers to compact and smooth it to ensure that the sealant fits tightly with the gap.

Pay attention to curing characteristics and treatment

The curing of silicone sealant develops from the surface to the inside. The surface drying time and curing time of silicone with different characteristics are different.
When it is not cured, it can be wiped with a cloth strip or paper towel. After curing, it needs to be scraped with a scraper or scrubbed with a solvent.

Construction safety matters

Construct in a well-ventilated environment to avoid gas entering the eyes and long-term skin contact.

Keep children away from the construction site. If accidentally splashed into the eyes, rinse with clean water immediately and seek medical attention.

Special case handling

If the glue seam is blocked, the seam is too wide or too narrow, etc., the seam needs to be treated in advance.
The surface of the substrate should be clean, dry, clean, and uniform in texture. If there is any debris, it can be polished with a grinder and then cleaned with a blower or brush.

The above steps cover the basic use of sealants. Make sure to follow these guidelines to effectively improve the performance and effect of the sealant.
