Soudal Decorators Caulk is designed for interior use only. After application, it can be painted over, allowing for seamless integration with the surrounding surfaces. The caulk provides a smooth and uniform finish that enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the project.

 

 

Product Benefits:

  • Very Easy to Apply: Soudal Decorators Caulk is designed for ease of use, ensuring a hassle-free application process. Its smooth consistency allows for effortless application, even for novice users.

  • Flexible: This caulk offers excellent flexibility, accommodating natural movement without compromising the integrity of the seal. It remains pliable, reducing the risk of cracking or crumbling over time.

  • Paintable: Once cured, Soudal Decorators Caulk can be painted over, seamlessly blending in with the surrounding surfaces. This feature allows for customization and ensures a flawless finish.

  • Smooth Finish: The caulk dries to a smooth and uniform finish, enhancing the overall appearance of the project. Its seamless integration with the surface creates a professional-looking result.

  • For Interior Use (Only): Soudal Decorators Caulk is specifically formulated for interior applications. It is not suitable for use outdoors or in areas exposed to direct water contact.

 

Typical Applications:

  • Sealing Gaps Around Internal Window and Door Frames: Use Soudal Decorators Caulk to seal gaps between frames and walls, ensuring a weather-resistant seal.

  • Skirting Boards: Apply the caulk to seal gaps between skirting boards and the wall, leaving a neat and seamless finish.

  • Plasterboard: Fill gaps and cover joints in plasterboard with Soudal Decorators Caulk, ensuring a smooth and uniform surface ready for painting or wallpapering.

  • Staircases, Architrave, and Coving: Use this versatile caulk to seal gaps around staircases, architrave, and coving, providing a professional and seamless finish.

  • Filling Small Cracks in Plaster: Soudal Decorators Caulk is ideal for filling small cracks in plaster, ensuring a flawless surface before painting or any decorative finish.

 

Substrate Suitability:

Soudal Decorators Caulk is suitable for most porous building surfaces and aluminium. It adheres well to materials such as wood, brickwork, concrete, plasterboard, and painted surfaces.

However, it is NOT recommended for use on natural stone, bitumen, glass, and metal surfaces. To ensure compatibility, we recommend conducting a preliminary adhesion test on each surface.

 

Surface Preparation:

Before applying Soudal Decorators Caulk, it is crucial to prepare the surface properly. Start by ensuring that the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust and grease.

If the surface is highly porous, we recommend priming it with a suitable primer to enhance adhesion and ensure optimal results.

 

Application Method:

  • Cut the Nozzle: Cut the nozzle of the cartridge at a 45-degree angle to control the size of the bead. The size of the nozzle opening should match the width of the joint or gap you are sealing.

  • Load the Cartridge: Load the cartridge into the caulking gun according to the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure it is securely in place.

  • Apply Consistent Pressure: Apply consistent pressure on the caulking gun trigger to dispense the sealant. Start at one end of the joint or gap and steadily move along its length.

  • Fill the Gap: Apply the sealant directly into the joint or gap, ensuring it is completely filled. Make sure the caulk makes contact with both sides of the joint for optimal adhesion.

  • Smooth the Surface: For best results, spray the surface with a soapy solution before the sealant begins to skin. This solution enables easy smoothing and ensures a smooth, professional finish. You can use a caulking tool or a wet finger to smooth the caulk and remove any excess.

  • Curing Time: Allow the sealant to dry and cure according to the manufacturer's instructions. The curing time may vary depending on environmental conditions, but ensure the caulk is fully cured before painting or finishing.


Finishing:

Once the sealant is applied, it can be smoothly finished using the Soudaglatt Smoothing Tool or a similar tool of your choice. Simply run the tool smoothly along the sealant line to create an even finish.

If a smoothing tool is not available, a wetted finger can be used to achieve a similar effect. Perform the finishing process before the sealant begins to skin, ensuring a neat and tidy appearance.

Coverage of any sealant product varies depending on Joint Width and Joint Depth.

Please refer to our Guide on How To Measure The Number of Tubes Required For the Job.

 

Joint Dimensions:

  • Minimum Width for Joints: 1mm

  • Maximum Width for Joints: 10mm

  • Minimum Depth for Joints: 5mm

  • Recommendation Sealing Jobs: Joint Width = Joint Depth.

 

Cleaning:

Clean any uncured sealant immediately after use with water. Wipe off any excess sealant to avoid it drying on surfaces. Please note that once the sealant cures, it becomes difficult to remove. Therefore, it is essential to clean the product residue promptly.

 

Remarks:

  • Do not use in applications where continuous water immersion is possible.

  • Do not apply when rain or frost is imminent

  • Decorators Caulk can be painted over with most paints.

  • The paint should be sufficiently elastic to be applied on a plasto-elastic sealant. A preliminary test is recommended.
