Application
Suitable for sealing moving joints, dilatation and connection joints, seams and cracks in construction, houses, cars, boats and caravans. Universal adhesion without primer on all common building materials, such as concrete, stone, ceramics, enamel, glass, metal, rubber and wood. Does not bond to bitumen, polyethylene, polypropylene and PTFE.
Not suitable for aquariums, polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), PTFE and bitumen.
Handling
Before use
Only apply at temperatures between +5°C and +40°C.
The surface must be dry, clean and free of dust, rust and grease.
For a good result, cover the joint’s edges with masking tape. If necessary, prevent three-sided bonding by filling the joint with a foam backer rod or PE film.
Apply cartridge with BISON Cartridge Gun. Multi Tool to open the cartridge and tooling the sealant.
Content suitable for approx. 8 to 15 m (depending on the diameter of the joint).
During use
Use sealant gun to handle cartridge. Open the cartridge by cutting off the plastic nipple on the top side at the screw thread with a sharp knife. Screw on the nozzle and chamfer at the desired width.
Ensure a minimum joint width of 6 mm and a maximum of 20 mm. The joint depth depends on the joint width. Keep a joint depth of 6 mm up to a joint width of 12 mm. Beyond that, the joint depth should be half the joint width. Apply the sealant evenly into the joint, then within 10 minutes tool with a sealant smoother or BISON Multi Tool moistened with a non-aggressive or mild soap solution. Remove the applied masking tape immediately after tooling. After approx. 15 minutes, a surface skin will form. Cured silicone sealant can only be removed mechanically. For aquariums use only BISON Silicone Sealant Glass.
Silicone hardens under the influence of humidity. Contact with humidity is therefore absolutely necessary during curing. Alijd consider a joint of at least 6 mm wide.
After use
Immediately remove stains with white spirit. Cured sealant can be removed mechanically or with BISON silicone sealant residue remover.
Store in properly sealed packaging in a dry place at between +5°C and +25°C.
