Construction steps and curing time of caulking agent

Sealant is most suitable for gluing at room temperature of 5℃/25℃, and the curing time will be affected by temperature. The curing time of sealant is different at different temperatures.

The temperature is low.

When the temperature is low, such as cold winter, sewing thread is very sticky and difficult to stick. The curing time of sealant is also long, from 48 hours to 72 hours, or even longer.

The temperature is higher.

When the temperature is high, such as spring and autumn, it is easy to stick beautiful sewing agent, and the curing time will be relatively shortened, so you have to wait 24 to 48 hours. But don't choose to construct in summer, because the summer temperature is high, the weather is unstable, there are often heavy rains, and the humid environment will affect the curing of sealant.

construction sequence

The construction steps of caulking agent will be affected by temperature. There are certain time and climate requirements for gluing, caulking and shoveling.

glue

The difficulty of applying the cosmetic is affected by the temperature. The high temperature makes the cosmetics stick easily. The temperature is low, so it is necessary to soak the sealant in hot water at 70℃ 15 minutes, and then it can be easily bonded.

Joint suppression

After gluing, it is necessary to wait for the sealant to solidify before caulking. When the temperature is low, the caulking agent is thick and the precipitation speed is slow, and the caulking can be carried out within 15 minutes. When the temperature is high, the precipitation speed and curing speed are very fast, and the joint can be pressed within 5 minutes.

Shovel glue

Shovel glue is the last step to make beautiful joints. If it is a smooth tile, it is necessary to shovel off the remaining materials on the surface after the curing agent is cured. And the tiles with masking paper need to tear off the masking paper before the sealant cures.
