What is the difference between an adhesive and a sealant?
Adhesives join materials together but aren’t always elastic in properties. Sealants are able to absorb the movement within a joint or between two materials, bt can make a weaker connection. Hybrid products aim to offer both a strong connection and the perfect, movement-absorbing seal.
Benefits of using professional adhesives and sealants:
- Prevent liquid from passing through joins, gaps or openings in various materials
- Can help to protect the appearance of a product, surface or area.
- Cost-effective way to improve the performance and reliability of your project
- Easy to use
- Lots of different options to choose from
- Protects your work, enhancing durability and safety
Roof sealants for leaks
One of the most common purchases of roof sealants is to complete repair or protection jobs on roofing. If you need to repair a roof leak, follow these simple steps:
- Make sure you have the right tools. You’ll need gloves, a cartridge gun, the roof sealant and a cutting knife or razor blade.
- Inspect the area to ensure it is in good condition. Replace any decaying material with new material.
- Look for where the leak might be coming from. There might be cracks in the existing sealant if you're doing a repair job.
- Clean the area to make sure it is clean and free from debris, old sealant, rust, paint etc. You might need to use the knife or razor here and wear protective gloves.
- Apply the roof sealant using steady and consistent pressure as you move along the joint.
