FAQs

How long does the anti-mould protection last?

The Bond It Xtreme White Anti-Mould Silicone Sealant provides protection against mould for up to 10 years under normal conditions.

Can I paint over this sealant?

This silicone sealant is not designed to be painted over. For a paintable finish, consider a different type of sealant.

What is the best way to clean the sealant after it has cured?

Clean the sealed area with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.

Is this sealant suitable for outdoor use?

While durable, this sealant is primarily designed for interior wet environments like bathrooms and kitchens. Always check the product's specific guidelines for outdoor suitability.

How do I remove old silicone sealant?

Use a sharp knife or scraper to carefully cut and peel away the old sealant. For stubborn residue, a silicone sealant remover product may be effective, followed by cleaning the surface.

What is the cartridge size and type?

The product comes in a 310ml EU3 cartridge, which is compatible with most standard sealant guns.

Troubleshooting

Sealant not adhering to the surface

Ensure the surface is completely clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old sealant residue. Re-apply after thorough surface preparation.

Mould reappears quickly

Verify that the surface was thoroughly cleaned of existing mould before application. Ensure adequate ventilation in the area, especially after application.

Uneven or messy bead

Practice applying a consistent bead with the sealant gun. Smooth the bead immediately after application using a wet finger or a dedicated smoothing tool.

Sealant is too stiff to apply

Check application temperature. Extremely cold conditions can make the sealant difficult to extrude. Allow the cartridge to warm to room temperature.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old sealant. Remove any existing mould.
  2. Cut the nozzle tip at a 45-degree angle to achieve the desired bead size.
  3. Pierce the cartridge seal and load it into a standard sealant gun.
  4. Apply a continuous bead of sealant to the joint.
  5. Smooth the bead immediately using a wet finger or a smoothing tool for a neat finish.
  6. Remove excess sealant with a damp cloth.

Compatibility:

Care:

Allow the sealant to cure fully before exposing to water. Clean the sealed area with mild detergents and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the sealant.

Curing Time:

Typically cures within 24 hours, but full performance is achieved after several days depending on temperature and humidity.
