Description

Sanitary acrylic sealant is a high-strength, water-resistant, flexible sealant for humid rooms.

Paintable, which is rare in a wet zone

The default choice for a bathroom is silicone, and silicone can never be painted. This one carries antiseptics like the silicone grade but still takes paint, so it suits joints that must vanish under a painted finish.

35 % movement

More than the 20 % of the silicones here, with up to 500 % elongation. For a joint that shifts daily under the weight of water, elasticity beats ultimate strength.

Vapour-permeable

A silicone bead is sealed both ways. This one lets trapped moisture out of the wall instead of storing it: a real difference in a poorly ventilated bathroom.

Antiseptics

They protect against the black line of mould for as long as the bead is intact.

Where it is used

Sealing joints, cracks and abutments in bathrooms, showers, kitchens, laundries and WCs, between glass, timber, ceramics, metal and PVC, indoors and out.

Specs

Acrylic, applied at +5 to +35 °C, service -40 to +80 °C, white, 0.15 and 0.28 kg, 18-month shelf life, water clean-up, maximum depth 5 mm. For a joint under standing water, choose the sanitary silicone instead.

How much you need

A 0.28 kg cartridge gives about 15 m of 4×4 mm bead. Maximum depth 5 mm.

  • 0.15 kg covers about 8 m;
  • 0.28 kg covers about 15 m: a whole bathroom;
  • a 1.7×0.7 m bath perimeter: 3.1 m.

The working section here is 4×4 mm against silicone 6×6 mm, so the same weight yields more metres. Pack gaps deeper than 5 mm with backer rod.

Application

Preparation

  • remove all old sealant;
  • wash, degrease and dry the joint;
  • pack gaps deeper than 5 mm with backer rod;
  • mask the edges.

Application

  • cut the nozzle to the joint width;
  • gun an even, unbroken bead;
  • tool with soapy water;
  • pull the masking before it skins.

Baths

  • fill the bath before sealing and leave it full until the bead has dried.

Painting and care

  • paint once fully dry;
  • keep the joint dry until then;
  • wash tools with water;
  • do not freeze; 18 months.

FAQ: painting, mould and choosing for a bath

  • Better than the sanitary silicone?
    It paints, it breathes, and it takes 35 % movement against 20 % for silicone. Silicone resists chemicals and standing water better.

  • Which for a bath joint?
    Silicone if the joint is open and wetted; this one if it is painted with the wall.

  • Mould protection?
    Antiseptics in the formulation, but no joint survives permanent damp without ventilation.

  • When can I paint?
    Once fully dry; keep it dry until then.

  • How much for a bathroom?
    8–12 m: one 0.28 kg cartridge.
