Applications and Product Overviews:

For very high-movement applications, difficult environments or the best performance we recommend Sonolastic 150 VLM sealant. Its advanced hybrid sealant chemistry provides superior adhesion to glass, wood, all roofing materials, swimming pool deck/wall joints and has a 25 year life expectancy.

A great translucent-clear, non-staining sealant for glass and window, tile, siding, car windows and structural adhesive applications, use Sonolastic Clear 25. It is used throughout in the automotive industry for window glass installation, trim adhesive and for general sealing. With good UV resistance and strength, it is also widely used as a roof tile adhesive and as a snow-guard adhesive.

NP1 is a very popular solution for most construction caulking and structural sealant applications. It has superior adhesion and is suitable for +/-35% total joint expansion applications such as window frames, roofing tile, panel walls, parapets, vinyl siding, stucco, and in deck joints.

Concrete Expansion Joint Products:

Novalink SL Self Leveling concrete expansion joint sealant is 100% solids (non-shrinking), solvent free (very low order on cure, suitable for indoors), quick curing (can apply down to -32F), and very cost effective. 300% elongation, 150 PSI tensile, abrasion resistant (pedestrian traffic suitable). Its a easy to use single-component product useful for joints up to 2 inch wide. Novalink is aged asphalt compatible.

SL1 and SL2 are great concrete expansion joint sealants and are used for public walkways, driveways, swimming pool decks, road expansion joints parking lot joints, pavement joints, driveway expansion joints, road joints, exterior deck expansion joints and such. SL2 is used for wide joints and is tintable. SL1/SL2 are not asphalt compatible.

Sonomeric 1 is a single component self-leveling polyurethane sealant which is Jet fuel and resistant to many chemicals. It features exceptional weather resistance. Used for airport runways, highways, bridges, stadiums, industrial floors.

House Stucco and Grout:

Try Sonneborn TX1 caulking instead of NP1. It dries with a nice textured finish similar to stucco or grout. It's the same chemistry as NP1. TX1 is easy to tool with a consistent appearance. Its available pre-tinted in many popular colors.

For above water line pool deck-to-wall grout repairs, ULTRA is excellent. This sealant survives the stresses that cause mortar grout cracking. Ultra has excellent dirt pick-up resistance. Dirt and hard-water pool deposits are easily removed! NOTE: It is very important to keep the pool wall-to-deck interface waterproofed, as constant chemical and water exposure quickly corrodes the steel re-bar, resulting in structural damage. M-1 can be applied for in wet emergency repairs (resetting / re-grouting tiles) and will cure quickly.

Primers:

Where substrate adhesion is questionable, or in constant submersion situations, primers should be used. Primer-733 is an easy to use one-component solvent based sealant primer for use with urethane sealants applied to metal, wood and coated surfaces. Primer-2000 is easy to use one-component solvent based sealant-primer for use with Sonolastic 150 / polyether sealants applied to porous surfaces, concrete, grout, stucco and wood. For TPO roofing, TPO PRIMER is recommended. A favorite of many deck waterproofing contractors is Polyprime 2180. Its a 2-part epoxy-polyamine primer. For a easy to use on-component wood and concrete primer, try Primer-772. UNI-TILE SEALER is a two-component, quick drying epoxy-polyamide penetrating primer/sealer which penetrates and seals porous surfaces to improve adhesion -- excellent on concrete and pool decks. UNISEAL Primer is a one-component water based penetrating concrete sealer.

Backer Rod:

Backer Rod is an easy to compress soft celled foam. It is inserted into a clean joint at required depth before caulking/sealing. Backer Rod creates an even depth and supports the caulk. The even depth is important to create the correct width-to depth ratio (~3:1) for the expansion joint. Select a backer-rod diameter that is about 25% larger than the nominal width of the joint. Backer rod sizing and installation information is at the bottom of this page.
