SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

All surfaces must be clean, dry and dust free. All loose or flaking surface coatings, and old sealant and mastic joints, should be removed before application.

Everbuild Tecnic® Fire Sealant 300 does not require a primer on most common surfaces, although adhesion tests are recommended prior to full scale application. If the joint is likely to be immersed or if adhesion is poor (especially on porous surfaces) use FIRE SEALANT 400.
