FAQs

Can U-POL Tiger Seal be painted over?

Yes, it is paintable once fully cured, though it is always recommended to test compatibility with your specific paint system on a small sample first.

Is this product suitable for windshield installation?

Tiger Seal is designed for body panels and seams; it is not recommended for structural glass bonding. Always use a dedicated urethane glass adhesive for windshields.

Does it cure in the presence of water?

It is a moisture-cure product, meaning it uses ambient humidity to set, but it should not be applied to wet surfaces or during rainfall.

How do I remove excess sealant?

Excess sealant can be wiped away with a suitable solvent, such as a wax and grease remover, before it begins to cure.

Can I store a partially used cartridge?

Yes, seal the nozzle tightly with a plug or plastic wrap to prevent air exposure. Store in a cool, dry place to prolong the remaining shelf life.

Troubleshooting

Sealant is difficult to extrude from the cartridge

Ensure the cartridge is at room temperature and the nozzle is cut at the correct angle. Verify the caulking gun mechanism is functioning properly.

Bond failure or lifting

The surface likely contained contaminants. Thoroughly degrease the area and ensure it is completely dry before re-applying.

Surface remains tacky longer than expected

High humidity or low temperatures can slow down the curing process. Allow more time in a controlled, temperate environment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ready-to-use single component formula
  • Excellent resistance to vibration and weathering
  • Provides a permanent and flexible bond
  • Prevents water ingress effectively

Cons

  • Requires professional application skill to achieve a smooth finish
  • Surface preparation must be meticulous for best results
  • Not suitable for use on some non-porous plastics without a primer

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure the application surface is clean, dry, and free from grease, wax, or loose paint. Using a wax and grease remover is highly recommended before application. The product is packaged in a standard 310ml cartridge, making it compatible with most manual or pneumatic caulking guns. Once applied, the product will skin over within 30-60 minutes, but it should be left to cure fully for 24 hours before subjecting the bond to heavy stress or painting over it. If you are painting over the sealant, ensure that the chosen topcoat is compatible with polyurethane-based products to prevent reaction issues.
