DIRECTIONS OF USE
A joint with the correct dimensions is able to absorb movements between building materials. The joint depth should always be in the correct relationship of the joint width. A general rule is the ratio of joint depth to the width of the joint with a joint width up to 10 mm is 1:1, with a minimum of 5 mm in width and depth. For joints wider than 10 mm, the depth is the width divided by 3 plus 6 mm.
SURFACE PREPARATIONS AND FINISHING
Application temperature: + 5°C to + 40°C (applies to environment and substrates). All substrates must be solid, clean, dry, and free of grease and dust. Clean substrates with Bostik Cleaner Bostik S548 GLASS ‘N’ SEAL WEATHERSEAL adheres perfectly without the use of primer to most non porous substrates. Porous substrates to be pre- treated with Bostik Universal Primer. Always test adhesion prior to application. Use Finisher to smooth the joint.
PAINTABILITY
Bostik S548 GLASS ‘N’ SEAL WEATHERSEAL is not paintable. We recommend covering the edges of the joint with masking tape to prevent surfaces that need to be painted from being contaminated by silicone.
CLEANING
Tools should be cleaned after use with water. Hands can be cleaned with Bostik Wipes and/or water and soap. Cured material can only be mechanically removed.
