Where does an anti-pick sealant make sense?
PU50's Shore A 45 hardness resists picking and abrasion, which suits schools, public buildings, and other high-traffic joints.
Can PU50 go below the waterline?
Yes, once it is fully cured. It also takes constant movement and vibration, which suits marine work.
Why can I not use it in a closed space?
It cures by reacting with moisture in the air. In a totally confined space it will not cure properly.
Can I paint over PU50?
Yes, once cured, with acrylic, oil, or rubber-based paints. Non-flexible paints may crack under joint movement.
Does PU50 need a primer?
Often no, but roughened non-porous surfaces take Adheseal 50A and porous surfaces take Everflex Supaprime. Always run an adhesion test first.
