Here are the general steps for using DOWSIL™ Neutral Fungicide Silicone Sealant:
1. Prepare the surface: The surface to be sealed should be clean, dry, and free of dirt, dust, and debris. Any old sealant or adhesive should be removed using a suitable solvent or tool.
2. Cut the tip of the cartridge: Cut the tip of the cartridge nozzle to the desired size and angle using a sharp knife or scissors.
3. Insert the cartridge into the caulking gun: Insert the cartridge into a standard caulking gun and apply steady pressure on the trigger to dispense the sealant.
4. Apply the sealant: Apply the sealant in a continuous bead along the joint or surface to be sealed, using a smooth, even motion. Use a caulking tool or your finger to smooth out the sealant and ensure good adhesion.
5. Tool the sealant: After applying the sealant, use a caulking tool or your finger to tool the sealant, smoothing it out and creating a smooth, even finish.
6. Allow the sealant to cure: Allow the sealant to cure at room temperature for at least 24 hours before exposing it to moisture or other environmental conditions.
7. Clean up: Clean any excess sealant or tools with a suitable solvent or soapy water before the sealant dries.
Usable life: DOWSIL™ Neutral Fungicide Silicone Sealant typically has a usable life of 12 months from the date of manufacture. However, this may vary depending on the specific product and the storage conditions. It's important to always check the expiration date on the product packaging before using it.
Storage: DOWSIL™ Neutral Fungicide Silicone Sealant should be stored in a cool, dry place that is free from frost and direct sunlight. The product should be stored at a temperature between 5°C and 25°C (41°F and 77°F) for optimal results. It's also important to keep the product away from sources of ignition and combustible materials.
1. Not suitable for structural glazing: DOWSIL™ Neutral Fungicide Silicone Sealant is not recommended for use in structural glazing applications, where the sealant is required to provide a high degree of structural strength.
2. Not recommended for immersion: It is not recommended for continuous immersion in water or other liquids. While it is highly resistant to water, it may not be able to withstand prolonged exposure to submerged conditions.
3. Not recommended for use on some substrates: It may not adhere well to some surfaces, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, Teflon, and some other plastics. It's always important to test the sealant on a small, inconspicuous area before applying it to a larger surface.
4. May not be compatible with some paints: DOWSIL™ Neutral Fungicide Silicone Sealant may not be compatible with some paints and coatings. It's always important to check with the paint manufacturer before applying the sealant.
