Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the set, ensure the surface is clean and free of debris. When applying, load your sealant cartridge and place the desired tool firmly against the joint. Move the tool steadily along the seam, applying light, even pressure. After each use, wipe the tools clean with a dry cloth or a solvent-appropriate cleaner to prevent residual silicone from hardening on the plastic surface. Store the set in a dry place to maintain the integrity of the plastic edges. These tools are compatible with silicone, acrylic, and resin-based sealants.
