Data sheets

• Specially for sealing of internal and external connection and expansion joints.
• Equally suitable for fenestration and glazing (e.g. frame, transoms, mullions).
Processing
The substrate areas that will be in contact with the sealant must be clean, dry and free of all loose material, dust, dirt, rust, oil and other contaminants. Non-porous substrates should be cleaned with a solvent and a clean, lint-free, cotton cloth. Wipe dry immediately with another such cloth before the solvent evaporates from the surface.
Adhesion
WACKER® WD-WINDOWS AND DOORS color exhibits excellent primerless adhesion to many substrates, e.g., glass, tiles, ceramics, enamel, glazed tiles and clinker; metals, e.g. aluminum, steel, zinc or copper; impregnated, varnished or painted wood, and many plastics.
Users must carry out their own tests due to the great variety of substances.
The adhesion can be improved in many cases by pretreatment of the substrates with a primer.
If adhesion difficulties arise, please contact our technical service.
