4.APPLICATION OF GUNUO® ROOF and GUTTER SILICONE SEALANT
--Thoroughly clean and dry surface from oil, dirt and grease. Allow to dry completely before applying silicone.
--Cut the seal at the top of the cartridge and cut the nozzle at a 45° angle, to the size of the gap opening. Screw the nozzle to the top of the cartridge.
--Place the cartridge into a caulking gun.
--Hold the caulking gun at a 45° angle. Press the nozzle opening against the joint, apply steady pressure to the caulking gun and extrude the silicone sealant forcing the sealant into the gap and move in a pushing motion, along the joint in one smooth action.
--Sealant will cure fully in 48 hours. As this point any unwanted sealant can be removed by trimming with a sharp blade, but avoid under cutting the seal.

7.FAQ
Q: What’s the impact of silicone sealant with bubble?
A. No bubble on the silicone sealant surface is a common performance for a good quality PU foam; if the silicone sealant has bubble, the silicone rubber is easy to break after curing.
Q: Except for silicone sealant, what other products you can provide us together?A: We also produce the PU Foam, MS Sealant, Marble Glue, Two-component epoxy adhesive, Two-component insulating foam.
