Field of application

A one-component 100% silicone sealant used for glazing outdoors and indoors. The product is suitable for glazing aluminium frames, construction joints and building joints, general glazing work, sealing aquariums, and sealing windows. Ceresit CS 23 has excellent adhesion to many non-porous surfaces such as glass, ceramic tiles, aluminium and metal.

Preparation for work

The temperature of the silicone during application must be at least +20°C. It is advisable to apply it at an ambient temperature between +5°C and +40°C. At a temperature below +5°C, sealing may be carried out if there is no condensation, snow or ice on the joint walls. The joint walls must be clean and dry. Greasy surfaces should be cleaned with acetone or a cleaner. For cleaning metal surfaces, white spirit may be used. can be cleaned with white spirit before the material. If there is old sealant in the joint that could impair adhesion, it must be removed completely and the surfaces (joint walls) cleaned. Priming: non-porous surfaces do not need to be primed.

Use

Cut off the tip of the bottle and screw the nozzle onto the bottle. The tip of the nozzle should be cut at an angle (about 45 degrees) depending on the width of the joint. Place the bottle in the silicone gun. Apply the material firmly into the joint. Special attention should be paid to adhesion to the edges of the joint. Smooth the sealant with a wet spatula or another suitable tool. The silicone surface will not be tacky (a surface skin will form) after about 15 minutes. Ceresit CS 23 cannot be painted/lacquered, because the coating will not adhere to the surface of the silicone due to its
