All surfaces must be clean, dry, sound and free of dust, oil, old sealant or contamination.

Lightly contaminated surfaces should be wiped with Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) using the 2-rag wipe method. Apply IPA to a clean lintfree cloth and wipe onto the surface to be cleaned to solubilize and remove the majority of the contaminant. A clean dry cloth should then be applied to remove remaining contamination and dry the surface. Ensure wet cleaner is not allowed to dry on surface. For more heavily contaminated surfaces or where the IPA does not remove the contaminant, a generic wax and grease remover should be applied using the same 2-rag wipe method. Once this has been completed the surface should be given a final clean with IPA using the 2-rag wipe method to ensure the surface is adequately prepared. Adhesion to metals and some surface finishes can be further improved by light abrasion prior to cleaning with IPA using the 2 rag-wipe method. Manufacturers of plastics should be consulted about suitable cleaning solvents. Adhesion to plastics should be pre-tested.

Mask either side of joint to produce a neat finish. Use a suitable sized foam backing rod or polyethylene bond breaker tape to prevent three sided joint contact impeding the free and even deformation of the sealant in a cyclic joint. Open-cell polyurethane foam is recommended. Use a size 25% wider than the joint width that will compress when inserted into the joint.
