Application
Surface preparation: is crucial before applying the sealant. The joint surface must be dry and free from dust, coatings, oils, grease, and loose particles. Clean with a wire brush and emery paper, then remove dust with compressed air or a paintbrush. Wipe oil and grease with a solvent-soaked cloth (xylene, toluene, or acetone).
Back-Up Material: Insert compressible rods like polyethylene or neoprene to con- trol sealant depth and provide support.
Priming: Apply sealant primer on porous substrates like concrete or wood in two coats with a 30-minute interval.
Masking Tape: Use self-adhesive tape to protect joint edges and remove it after tooling.
Application: Mix hardener with resin, stir until uniform, and apply with a manual gun. The non-sag formula suits horizontal and vertical surfaces. Tool for a smooth finish.
Packing
Resin (Part A): 3680 gm in a 4 Kg container.
Hardener (Part B): 320 gm in a 300 ml sachet.
Formula
To calculate the weight (kg) of Proxon PSGG sealant for a joint (m), use this formula:
Weight = (Joint Length) × (Formula-Specif- ic Calculation).
This ensures accurate sealant estimation.
Weight in kg = SG × W × D × L
1000
where W & D are in mm and L is in metre. SG = Specific gravity of the sealant
W = Width of joint D = Depth of joint
L = Length of the joint
Approximately, 1 Litre of PRIMER would cover 6 to 7 Square metre of the joint area.
