  Application

  Cut the tip of the cartridge taking care not to damage the thread.  Apply nozzle and cut cleanly at an angle of 45° with an opening slightly larger than the gap to be sealed.  Apply using a standard sealant gun.  Best results will be obtained by keeping an even pressure on the gun trigger and keeping the gun at a constant angle to the surface being sealed. Smooth the sealant down using a wetted spatula, piece of wood or finger.  Any mistakes can be rectified by removing sealant with a damp sponge or cloth before re-applying.  If overpainting or staining, allow to cure first.(full cure 24-48 hours at normal temperatures).
