Bond It Caulk-Mate One Hour Decorators Caulk - White EU4 Description

Uses 

Bond It CAULK-MATE has good adhesion to most building materials and can be used for repairing small cracks and joints with no movement in plaster and wood.

It is ideal for use on: 

• Wood. 
• Light fittings. 
• Stair risings. 
• Plaster. 
• Brick. 
• Concrete. 
• Plasterboard.

Preparation 

All surfaces must be clean, dry, sound and free from dust, oil or any other contaminants that may hinder adhesion. If necessary, in addition to mechanical means, cleaning with a solvent such as acetone is recommended for degreasing. Priming Bond It CAULK-MATE does not require a primer on most common construction surfaces. However, in some cases it may be necessary to prime concrete or other surfaces for optimum adhesion. To determine whether a primer is required a sample should be tested. Contact Bond It Technical Service Department for recommendations. 

Application 

Apply using a standard sealant gun. Cut tip from cartridge, be careful not to damage the screw thread. Cut the nozzle at an angle of 45° to an opening slightly larger than the gap to be sealed, and fix to cartridge. Smooth down within 10 minutes using a slightly wetted spatula, sponge or SEALANT APPLICATOR TOOL. Do not tool down after the skin has started to form. Do not saturate the surface with water as this will delay the curing process. CAULK-MATE can be over painted with emulsion paint as soon as a skin forms, approx after 1 hour. For oil based paints, allow to dry completely for 24-48 hours before over painting. Remove excess product with a damp cloth.
