Everbuild external frame sealant is an acrylic sealant, suitable for internal and external use around window and door frames. The product provides a permanently flexible long lasting seal that adheres to virtually all materials. It contains a powerful anti-fungicide to prevent mould growth, and can be over painted.
Benefits
• Permanently flexible
• Adheres to most surfaces.
• Mould resistant.
• Over paintable.
• Easy clean up
Areas for Use
• Internal and external sealing around timber and metal window and door frames,
• Internal sealing around Pvcu window and door frames.
• Sealing cracks and gaps in brickwork, stone and concrete.
Limitations
• Not for use in conjunction with bitumen or asphalt.
• Not for use externally when rain is imminent (within 6 hours at 20°C, 24 hrs at 10°C.) Note that damp or humid conditions may significantly extend the cure.
• Do not attempt to abrade when cured.
• Do not overpaint until a surface skin has formed (allow 24 hours). Over painting is recommended externally to prologue the working life of the product especially in areas prone to high/low temperature variations.
• Note: this product is a flexible. Certain poor quality paints (especially certain vinyl matts) have very little movement in the dry film. It is possible for the dry paint film to crack if movement is excessive.
• Do not use externally around Pvcu – Use Silicone 450.
Surface Preparation
All surfaces must be clean and dust free.
All loose or flaking surface coatings, and old sealant and mastic joints, should be removed before application.
Highly porous substrates such as new plaster should first be primed diluted 1:4 with water.
This product can be applied to slightly damp, but not wet surfaces.
Installation Instructions for Everbuild External Flame
Tools/Products Required:
Everbuild External Frame Sealant
Caulking Gun.
Silicone Smoother + Water.
Backer Rod.
Step 1 – Cleaning Surfaces:
Surfaces need to be clean, dry, sound and free from contamination. NOTE: Soap or residue will stop the silicone from adhering.
Step 2 – Preparing Surfaces:
Where gaps are 6mm or wider, insert a joint of closed cell Polyethylene foam backer rod, approximately 25% over sized, allowing for a seal depth of at least 10mm. If necessary you can mask around the perimeter allowing you to remove any messy silicone after application.
Step 3 – Preparing Caulking Gun:
Insert External Frame Silicone Sealant cartridge into the skeleton gun. Snip the nozzle at a 45 degree angle using a sharp blade as any ragged edges will reflect in your silicone. Don’t snip the nozzle too large, this will make it very difficultly and messy when applying.
Step 4 – Applying Sealant:
Pressure the gun trigger so that a smooth constant bead of silicone comes out, adjust your speed of travel to ensure a uniform bead goes down. Remember not to put too much silicone down as it will spread as you smooth it.
Step 6 – Smoothing:
Wet the silicone smoothers and tool to get the right shape, adjusting any mistakes made when applying the sealant. Now is the time to also remove any masking tape used.
Joint Width:
Where gaps are less than 6mm wide, apply a bead of External Frame Silicone Sealant sealant and tool to form a triangular fillet, achieving a ‘bite’ of at least 6mm onto non-porous surfaces ( PPC, aluminium etc) and 10mm onto porous surfaces (brickwork etc).
Minimum 6mm.
Maximum 25mm.
Joint Depth:
Depth ratio (within above min/max restrictions) 2:1 butt joints. 1:1 lap joints
