thickness and weather conditions.
HOW
SHOULD LOGS BE PREPARED FOR CAULKING?
Log areas to be
caulked must be clean, dry, and free from loose or foreign
materials.
HOW
DO APPLICATION CONDITIONS EFFECT RESULTS?
When the
temperature rises, logs will expand. When the temperature drops
logs will contract. When 509 SuperCaulk is applied during cold
damp conditions the logs will more than likely be at their
smallest dimensions (after some normal shrinkage may have
occurred). When the weather dries out and warms up the logs will
expand and the sealant will normally relax. Conversely, if you
apply your sealant during hot, dry conditions, the joint will be
at its smallest point and when temperatures or even turn very
humid, the logs may contract and put the sealant in stress. In
extreme circumstances the contraction or movement may be severe
enough to tear the sealant.
HOW
DO YOU TOOL AND FINISH CAULKING JOINTS?
All caulking joints
should be tooled by spraying a small amount of water on to the
surface of the caulking and tooled with a wet foam paint brush.
Try to maintain a caulking depth of ¼ inch as SuperCaulk will
shrink slightly during curing.
