Sealant Removers

As the name suggests, sealant removers are compounds designed to remove old adhesives or sealants, allowing you to get the exact professional finish of the material without harming its surfaces. Depending on the sealant remover, they can be effectively used to remove sealants, such as epoxy sealant, silicone sealant, gaskets, resins, and PUR. These adhesive removers are easy to use and can be carried out to remove discoloured and mouldy sealants using specialised tools or gels. They are also designed to easily access window frames and tiled walls horizontally or vertically. 

How To Remove the Sealant Using Sealant Removers?

Sealant removers work simply by applying a substantial amount to the desired adhesive. This allows the chemicals to penetrate after a while. Lightly rubbing using a brush or cloth (lint-free) will leave it adhesive-free by breaking the sealant and cleaning the surface to remove the sealant easily.
