SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

The surfaces must be clean, dry and free from dust, grease and other contaminants. As quality of plastics can vary, always carry out adhesion tests prior to large scale use.

Improve adhesion by wiping surface with PVCu Solvent Cleaner or white spirits (painted surfaces). Priming is generally not required, although we always advise testing small areas prior to use. Priming on porous substrates use Sikaflex® Primer 3N, non porous use Sika® Aktivator 205.

Joint design should be as follows:

Minimum width: 5 mm. Movement capacity will be impaired if the depth of the joint is greater than the width. For maximum movement accommodation, it is recommended that:

  1. The joint depth should be no less than 5 mm.
  2. Joint depth should be 5 mm for joints up to 10 mm wide.
  3. Joints above 10 mm in width should be half the width in depth up to 20 mm and minimum 10 mm for wider joints.

For deep joints, reduce depth by using Everbuild® Fix and Fill Expanding Foam or a suitable joint backer rod.

All joints should be designed so that the seal is placed in a position which does not retain water or form a water trap. Triangular fillets should be no less than 12mm across the face and should be finished with a flat or convex face.
