Direction for Use:   

• Reference should be made to the recommended joint ratios
• If necessary reduce joint depth using fill and fix expanding foam, or joint backer rod
• Furthermore, ensure that the joint design only permits adhesion to two surfaces, as three sided adhesion will impair flexibility
• Cut the tip of the cartridge taking care not to damage the thread
• Apply nozzle and cut cleanly at an angle of 45° with an opening slightly larger than the gap to be sealed
• Apply using a standard sealant gun
• Best results will be obtained by keeping an even pressure on the gun trigger and keeping the gun at a constant angle to the surface being sealed
• Smooth down within 10 minutes of application
• To ensure a proper bond, always smooth the sealant down using a spatula or piece of wood wetted with a soap and water solution
• An improved appearance can be achieved by placing masking tape to both sides of the joint and removing within 5 minutes of application
