Best Practices for Dow Dowsil Hi-Temp Sealant

*See Terms of Use Below
1. Surface Preparation
  
  Cut out and remove all old caulk for repair applications.
  
  Clean, Two-Step. First, apply solvent to a lint-free cloth and vigorously wipe bonding surfaces to remove dirt and residues. Next, use a dry wipe to remove remaining solvent and residue for optimum cleaning. Repeat if necessary. Surfaces must be clean, dry, oil- and frost-free for best results. (Recommended solvents include isopropyl alcohol, toluene, xylene, naphtha or similar solvent.)
2. Application
  
  Install. Install back-up spacing material for better filling, especially if width exceeds ½" to maximize bonding results. Open-cell polyethylene foam backer rod can be used.
  
  Mask. Apply masking tape to areas adjacent to the joint to ensure straight bead lines. Remove masking tape immediately after tooling and before a skin forms for easy clean-up.
  
  Open cartridge. Cut snub nose above threads, reattach and cut nozzle to desired size. Insert into a caulking gun.
  
  Apply. Extrude sealant with a smooth, steady motion, and ensure complete fill of joint cavity before proceeding.
  
  Tool. Tool the sealant immediately after application and before a skin forms. Remove masking immediately after tooling.
3. Clean-Up
  
  Cleanup should start immediately after sealant has been applied/ tooled and masking tape removed.
  
  While wearing solvent-resistant gloves, wipe off excess sealant from surfaces and tools with a solvent-moistened cloth within 10 minutes of application.
