What is silicone sealant
Silicone sealant is a liquid form of adhesive. One of its important features is it is elasticity and stability in both high and low temperatures. Silicone sealant is resistant to other chemicals, moisture, and weathering. Therefore, it less likely to fail when building and repairing objects.
Usages of silicone sealant
Silicone sealant is commonly used in bathrooms to seal bathtubs, as well as other surfaces. A neutral silicone sealant can also be used on or around showers, baths& spas, plumbing fixtures and sinks. Moreover, it is used to seal off corners in many situations. This is because silicone is very water resistant and durable.
How to apply silicone sealant
In order to apply a silicone sealant, you will need to load your tube of silicone sealant into a silicone gun. You should make sure that the surface you plan to apply it to is free of dirt, dust and mist because that can lead to a weaker seal. Use a utility knife to cut a hole at the tip of the silicone tube. Cut it at a 45 degree angle, and as close to the tip as possible. Finally, you can use the silicone gun to apply sealant to the surface you are working on.
