APPLICATION

1. Glass must be properly prepared as described.

2.  Apply the aquarium sealant to edge surface of the glass to be joined to the non-edge surface.  After application of the sealant, the assembled glass components should be tightly placed in a fixture or jig to allow sealant to flow evenly between joined surfaces and to give support during the internal sealing of the aquarium.

3.  Selected bead size appropriate for the size of aquarium being constructed.  Apply the sealant into the center of the joint formed by the sections of glass.  Tool the sealant immediately after application.  Any excess sealant should be removed before the sealant is cured by suing a clean cloth and a suitable solvent such as MEK (methyl ethyl Ketone), TCE (trichlorethylene) or alcohol.

Cured sealant can be trimmed with sharp blade.  Allow sealant to cure at least 7 to 10 days before adding water and fish.  This will ensure full cure and will allow the curing agent to totally dissipate.

REPAIR APPLICATION

The ASI Aquarium Silicone Sealant can be used to repair old or damaged aquariums.

1.  Remove all of the damaged sealant, clean area to be repaired with a clean cloth and a suitable solvent.  Apply sealant as described above and tool.

2.  Check repaired aquarium for leaks before adding fish to tank.  Fill aquarium with water and let sit for several days and check for any signs or leakage.

Product Description

GE Silicone II Kitchen/Bath/Plumbing – THREE-HOUR SHOWER-READY The shower doesn’t have to be off-limits for a full day. Caulk the shower or tub with GE Silicone II* Kitchen & Bath and reduce the wait time dramatically. GE Silicone II* adheres to a wide variety of substrates and quickly builds a tight seal that can be exposed to water as little as three hours after application. Some caulk requires wait time of a full day or longer before using the shower or the caulk might wash away. FIVE-YEAR MOLD-FREE PRODUCT PROTECTION Mold-free product protection helps keep the cured caulk mold- and mildew-free and looking clean for five years, with regular cleaning. Mold is not only an unsightly and embarrassing problem to have around a tub or shower, but it might also lead to health problems. Some caulk might claim limited protection, but GE Silicone II* Kitchen & Bath is formulated for increased protection. Why 100 percent silicone? Unlike acrylic, silicone is permanently: Waterproof—Acrylic breaks down in water over time. Flexible—Acrylic becomes less flexible and can even freeze at low temperatures, making it more likely to crack. Shrink-proof—Acrylic shrinks as the caulk dries. This shrinking can cause cracks over time. Crack-proof—Acrylic hardens, cracks and crumbles over time when exposed to extreme heat and the sun’s UV rays. Made in USA.
