Product Overview
Everbuild 200 Contractors Silicone in Brown, supplied in a 295ml cartridge. This acetoxy-cure silicone sealant provides a professional, flexible finish suitable for general sealing and sanitary applications.
Engineered as a mid to low modulus compound, it delivers consistent elasticity and secure adhesion to smooth and non-porous substrates such as glass, metal, ceramics, and PVCu. An integrated anti-fungal additive offers resistance against mould, mildew, and bacterial growth, maintaining a clean appearance in high-humidity environments.
The silicone forms a durable, watertight seal that retains flexibility and surface integrity under temperature fluctuations from -30°C to +150°C.
Brown formulation provides a complementary joint finish suited to timber, brickwork, and darker surface materials, supplied in a 295ml volume.
Features & Benefits
- Acetoxy cure formulation: Provides rapid curing and secure adhesion to smooth, non-porous surfaces including glass, enamel, and metal.
- Anti-fungal protection: Resists the growth of black mould and mildew in humid or wet areas, maintaining hygienic surface conditions.
- Mid to low modulus elasticity: Allows joint movement up to ±12.5% without loss of adhesion or cracking.
- Temperature resilience: Performs reliably across service temperatures from -30°C to +150°C, suitable for both interior and exterior use.
- Fast application: Low viscosity for easy gunning and smooth tooling, curing at approximately 2mm per 24 hours.
- Durable sealing performance: Permanent flexibility and long-term weather resistance for continuous joint protection.
- Brown 295ml size: Provides approximately 12 linear metres of a 7mm x 7mm fillet joint coverage, ideal for timber, brick, and dark-surface sealing.
Applications
- Sanitary sealing: Around baths, showers, basins, and other wet area fittings to prevent water ingress and mould formation.
- Worktops and laminates: For sealing joints and edges in kitchens and work surfaces where flexibility and hygiene are required.
- Metal and aluminium joints: For sealing gutters, trims, and profiles exposed to moisture or temperature changes.
- PVCu components: Suitable for bonding and sealing trims, panels, and cladding where a clear, strong seal is desired.
- Frame pointing and draughtproofing: For sealing around doors, windows, and joinery components to prevent air leakage.
Installation Guidance
- Surface preparation: Ensure all substrates are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or old sealant residues. Use a backer rod or foam filler to control joint depth if required.
- Cartridge preparation: Cut the cartridge tip, fit the nozzle, and trim at a 45° angle to match joint width.
- Application method: Apply with a standard sealant gun, maintaining even pressure for a continuous, uniform bead.
- Tooling: Smooth the surface within 15 minutes using a wetted spatula or tool to ensure proper adhesion and finish.
- Cleaning: Remove uncured sealant with white spirit. Once cured, remove using Everbuild Silicone Eater.
