Evo-Stik Window and Door Frame Sealant is a flexible, easy to apply acrylic sealant designed to weatherproof and draught-proof door and window frames. Suitable for both interior and exterior use, the sealant is overpaintable when dry and guaranteed to last for up to 15 years.
Preparation:
Work in warm but well ventilated conditions
Joint surfaces must be clean, dry, sound and free from dust and other contaminants that may impair adhesion
If desired place masking tape along the joint edges before application. This can make it easier to make a neat, tooled finish. Use a spatula with a round end to tool the sealant and check that this tool just fits into the gap between the masking tape so that it catches the excess sealant
Do a test run without applying any sealant to ‘get a feel’ for the difficult areas to seal in corners, behind taps and raised joints
Application:
Unscrew the nozzle, and using a sharp knife, carefully cut off the dome of the cartridge, taking care not to damage the thread. Screw the nozzle onto the cartridge
Cut off the tapered end of the nozzle at a 45 degree angle, to a width matching the gap to be sealed
Fit the cartridge into the cartridge gun by pressing the release plate and pulling out the plunger. Insert cartridge and repeatedly squeeze the trigger until the sealant appears
Place the nozzle at the start of the gap, and gently squeeze the trigger. Push forward slowly, ensuring that contact is made by the sealant with both sides of the gap. At the end of the run, release the trigger and press the plunger release plate of the gun
Smooth the sealant with a wet, round ended tool within 10 minutes (do not use a wetted finger), remove any excess with a cloth moistened with white spirit and then remove the masking tape from either side of the bead
After use, ensure the cap is replaced to prevent nozzle from clogging
The sealant skins over rapidly (approx. 15 to 60 minutes) and is fully cured in 1 to 7 days depending on bead width, temperature and humidity- Use for sealing around window and door frames
