FAQs

What is the main purpose of this Rubson sanitary sealant?

It is designed to create waterproof and flexible seals for joints in bathrooms and kitchens, such as around sinks, bathtubs, and shower bases.

How do I apply the sealant using the trigger?

Hold the trigger and apply steady, even pressure while moving the applicator along the joint. Smooth the bead immediately after application with a wet tool.

Can I paint over this sealant?

This sealant is typically not designed to be painted over. For best results, ensure a neat application during use.

What surfaces does this sealant adhere to?

It adheres to a wide range of materials including ceramic, enamel, laminate, stainless steel, aluminum, and painted surfaces.

How long does it take to cure?

The sealant requires approximately 24 hours to fully cure, though touch-dry times may be shorter. Refer to the product packaging for specific curing times.

Is this sealant suitable for outdoor use?

This product is specifically formulated for indoor sanitary applications in kitchens and bathrooms. It is not recommended for outdoor use.

How do I clean up excess sealant?

Wipe away any uncured sealant immediately with a damp cloth. Once cured, it can be difficult to remove and may require mechanical means.

Troubleshooting

Sealant not dispensing

Ensure the trigger mechanism is fully engaged and try applying steady pressure. Check if the product has expired, as old sealant can harden.

Poor adhesion

The surfaces may not have been properly cleaned or dried. Remove the old sealant, clean the area thoroughly with a degreaser, and ensure it is completely dry before reapplying.

Uneven bead or messy application

Practice on a piece of scrap material first. Apply steady, even pressure on the trigger and move at a consistent speed. Use a damp cloth or smoothing tool immediately after application to create a neat finish.

Sealant cracking after curing

This can occur if the joint experiences significant movement or if the sealant was applied too thinly. Ensure adequate joint width and depth, and confirm the product's suitability for flexible joints.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adheres to all common building materials.
  • Maintains flexibility, preventing cracks over time.
  • Easy and precise application with the built-in trigger.
  • Provides a durable, waterproof seal.
  • Suitable for high-moisture environments.

Cons

  • Fixed white color may not match all decors.
  • 200ml capacity might be insufficient for very large projects.
  • Requires proper surface preparation for optimal adhesion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the surfaces to be sealed are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and old sealant. If using for the first time, perform a test application on an inconspicuous area. Simply depress the trigger to dispense the sealant. Move the applicator smoothly along the joint, maintaining even pressure for a consistent bead. Smooth the bead immediately after application using a wet finger or a smoothing tool for a neat finish.

Compatibility: This sealant is designed to adhere to a wide variety of materials including ceramic, enamel, laminate, stainless steel, aluminum, and painted surfaces. It is recommended to test compatibility on plastics or painted surfaces if unsure.

Care: After application, allow the sealant to cure fully according to the product's recommended drying times (typically 24 hours for full cure). Clean up any excess uncured sealant immediately with a damp cloth. Once cured, the sealant can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the seal.
