Allow the adhesive to cure as per manufacturer's instructions before subjecting it to any stress or moisture. It has undergone extensive testing and found to be compatible with various metal surfaces such as steel, AlMgSi1, brass, electrolytic galvanized steel, AlCuMg1, flame galvanized steel, AlMg3, and steel ST1403.

How to Fill Gaps, Joints and Damaged Areas Using Caulk or Flexible Filler

Finally, it’s a dream to mix. I’ve found that some other powder fillers are a bit annoying to mix and sometimes cause air bubbles. I’ve never had this issue when using TX110. Pros BONUS TIP: If working on a white ceiling or white walls, add a tiny splash of food colouring to the mixture. This will allow you to identify where the filler has been applied after it’s dried and you will ultimately know exactly where to rub down. This is especially useful when working on white ceilings where it can be more difficult to see where the filler has been applied. To be brutally honest, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend using a ready-mixed filler. I understand why an amateur DIYer might feel more comfortable using one but I’ve yet to find one that is easy to sand. In my opinion, the time saved from mixing a regular filler is offset by the extra time and effort it takes to sand the ready-mixed filler to a smooth finish.

One of the practical benefits of Soudal Fix All Flexi is its non-staining properties on porous natural stones. This preserves the aesthetic appeal of these materials, ensuring a clean and professional finish. Additionally, the virtually odourless formula of this product enhances the user experience, creating a pleasant working environment. Typically, silicone sealants tend to be a fair bit more flexible than caulks as they are made using silicone (flexible polymer-based substances) that are very malleable and remain flexible even once cured which makes them ideal for filling and sealing gaps in areas such as bathrooms and kitchens that are subject to extreme temperature changes and expansion and contraction and also high levels of water and moisture where they need to remain fully flexible. If you have a wide gap to fill you can cut the end of the nozzle to allow more caulk to flow but as our gap is only fairly slight we left the nozzle tip as it is.There are smoothing tools available for decorators caulk but most pros use the wetted their finger technique or a rag and smooth the filler down. The rag can also be used to wipe the excess off the surface of the project.

Interior & Exterior Sealing and Bonding in the Building and Construction Industry: Soudal Fix All Flexi can be used for sealing gaps, joints, and bonding materials in various construction projects. It ensures a durable and flexible seal in both residential and commercial applications. Flexible filler also known as decorators caulk comes in external and internal grades. Caulk, by definition, means to make water or air-tight by filling or sealing, so decorators caulk is ideal for sealing any gap such as around windows and doors, between skirting and walls and the similar. Allow the sealant to cure as per manufacturer's instructions before subjecting it to any stress or moisture.Conducting a preliminary adhesion test on every surface is also recommended to ensure proper performance. Additionally, it is important to remove any releasing agents, processing aids, and protective agents (such as protection foil) from plastic surfaces before bonding. Stop periodically and wipe any excess caulk from your finger to prevent it spilling out around the edge of your gap. Use an old cloth to wipe away the excess. If you’re still set on a ready-mixed filler then Toupret does a version that comes in tube form which makes it simple to apply and is called Toupret Ready-Mixed Interior Filler. Virtually Odourless: The virtually odourless formula of Soudal Fix All Flexi provides a pleasant working experience, reducing discomfort typically associated with solvent-based products.
