• Instructions for Storage - Store in cool dry conditions between + 5°C and 25°C.
• Instructions for Use - Reference should be made to the recommended joint ratios. If necessary reduce joint depth using EVERBUILD FIX AND FILL 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. For Easi Squeeze tube, cut nozzle at a 45° with an opening slightly larger than gap to be sealed. Apply applying even pressure to the tube. Smooth down within 15 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.
