X’traseal MC-228 Multi-Color Flexi Gap Sealant is a two-part, coloured tile-gap finishing compound for decorative gaps between suitable ceramic, porcelain, marble, granite and travertine tiles. The two components mix through the dispensing nozzle and cure to a hard, glossy finish designed to complement polished tiling.
Choose MC-228 where the job calls for a colour-matched decorative tile-gap finish, including appropriate wall edges, benchtops, bathrooms and balcony tiling details. It is different from a flexible sanitary silicone or a purpose-designed movement-joint sealant. Despite the product name, do not assume the hard cured compound can accommodate building expansion-joint movement.
Typical applications
-
Porcelain and ceramic tiling: forming an even coloured finish in suitable tile gaps.
-
Kitchen benchtops and splashbacks: finishing compatible decorative tiling details.
-
Bathrooms and washrooms: filling appropriate tile gaps in the specified finishing system.
-
Stone and balcony details: treating suitable granite, marble or travertine joints after compatibility testing.
Apply the two components correctly
Prepare a clean, dry joint and attach the designated mixing nozzle. Discard the first 30–40cm of extruded material to establish consistent mixing before filling the gap. Mask the surrounding tile edges, fill evenly and tool while workable. The supplier's directions call for leaving the finished material undisturbed for several hours and allowing approximately 24 hours for full cure under suitable conditions.
Do not use on PE, PP or PTFE. Confirm coating and stone compatibility, and use the appropriate flexible silicone or joint sealant for locations that require movement capacity. Clean fresh residue promptly with the approved method; cured excess generally requires careful mechanical removal.
