How is BT1 Supplied?

BT1 is supplied in a 290mm cartridge.

How to prepare BT1 for use!

To prepare your BT1 for application, you need to;

• Remove the nozzle at the top of the cartridge and cut the cap off (at the top of the thread section) using a sharp utility knife.
• Cut the nozzle correct size using a sharp utility knife. This will determine the size of your bead. Make sure to do it at a 45-degree angle.

How to apply BT1 sealant and adhesive!

With the BT1 cartridge open and the nozzle cut to suit the bead of sealant needed applying BT1 sealant and adhesive is very straightforward.

Simply;

• Load the prepared cartridge into your caulking gun securely.
• Squeeze down on the trigger to start applying BT1.
• Apply BT1 sealant evenly in a straight line, using consistent pressure to the trigger as you drag the nozzle along your desired application area.

Once you’ve applied your bead of BT1 along your desired area, use C-TEC Multisolve to lightly coat the sealant and tool the bead to suit with the appropriate equipment.

How long does it take to cure?

Curing times:

BT1 works instantly and is fully cured in:

• 24 hours – 3mm bead
• 48 hours – 6mm bead
• 72 hours – 9mm bead

Note: Depending on how thick your application of sealant, you may have to wait longer before it’s fully cured.
