What are Sealants and What Are They Used For?
Sealants: Understand the Differences and How to Choose the Ideal Product
Sealants are products used to seal cracks, joints, and gaps between different materials, preventing the passage of water, air, dust, and other unwanted elements. Additionally, they help preserve the structural integrity and aesthetics of surfaces, offering protection against humidity, temperature fluctuations, and natural wear.
What are the main benefits of sealants?
PECOL’s range of sealants offers specific solutions for various needs:
- Acrylic Sealant: Ideal for internal joints with minimal movement. It can be painted, ensuring a discreet and uniform finish. It is recommended for concrete, painted wood, and masonry, providing effective sealing in indoor environments.
- Wood Sealant: Specially developed for flooring, laminates, and all types of wood. It is waterproof, odorless, and free of silicone and solvents, maintaining the natural appearance of the wood while protecting it against moisture and wear.
- Refractory Sealant: Resistant to extreme temperatures up to 1200°C, it is the right choice for fireplaces, BBQs, ovens, and heaters. It provides secure sealing on surfaces exposed to intense heat, such as concrete, metal, and brick.
How to Choose the Right Sealant?
Choosing the right sealant depends on the material type and environmental conditions it will be exposed to:
- For indoor joints that can be painted, opt for Acrylic Sealant.
- If the goal is to protect and maintain the aesthetics of wood, Wood Sealant is the ideal choice.
- For areas exposed to high temperatures, such as fireplaces and BBQs, Refractory Sealant is essential.
How to Apply Sealants?
To ensure the effectiveness of the sealant, follow these steps:
- Surface Preparation: Clean the area by removing dust, grease, and old residues.
