Low viscosity sealant?


Crofter

Recommended Posts

I'm normally a big fan of CT1 but does anybody have a suggestion for something of similar performance but a bit runnier? Something that will be easier to squeeze into a narrow gap. Has to be weatherproof/waterproof and preferably remain flexible. Primarily needed as a sealant rather than an adhesive.

Thanks all. I've delved into the datasheets for each of the suggestions, none of them list viscosity but some do have minimum joint sizes. So I think I'll rule out the Sika EBT, which states 10mm minimum. The others are all 5mm. CT1 don't give a figure, annoyingly.

I imagine the pre-cure viscosity will be more a function of temperature whatever you use so make sure it's warm!

 

(Somehow I always end up having to jobs that require nice runny product in the middle of winter so have spent many a day outside with pots of paint, sealant tubes, rolls of tape etc stuffed up my jumper to keep them working)

CT1 has its uses but it is very difficult to get an average finish and the clear and white look piss yellow after a while.

 

I've found the spray gets a good neat finish.

 

Always painted where visible so not noticed the yellow before.  Know of anything as good, but that stays nice and white?
