    COSTAR EXPANSEAL 200 is a two-component polysulphide sealant that cures to a flexible rubber seal. It has excellent adhesion and bonding properties. It is suitable for sealing expansion, contraction, and construction joints. The sealant performs well in temperatures between -20°C to 80°C and is durable and unaffected by UV rays, ozone or weathering. Surface preparation is important for best results, with all surfaces needing to be clean and primed before application. Both components must be thoroughly mixed together and directly applied to the joint.

    Application
    Surface Preparation
    Surface preparation is the most important step before application of
    sealant to get best results and to avoid failure.
    All surfaces must be clean, free of grease, oil, dirt, wax, and other foreign
    matter.
    Clean the joint surface by wire brush and sanding with emery paper.
    Cleaning agents (brush) maybe provided they are thoroughly rinsed before
    application.
    Application
    Product Application
    Apply Costar primer to the clean and dry surface using a brush prior to the
    installation of backer rod or bond breaking tape. The primer should be
    applied in a thin coat and should be allowed to become tack free prior to
    the application of the sealant.
    The joint edges shall be re-primed if the sealant installation is not carried
    out within 3 hours of application of the primer. Masking tape shall be
    applied on both the edges of the groove before applying the primer to
    obtain a clean and neat finish.
    Mixing and Application
    Pour the hardener (part B) into the base (part A) pail and mix thoroughly
    with a slow speed drill (300-400 rpm) fitted to a flat bladed paddle for 2-3
    minutes till a uniform color and consistency is achieved. Do not part mix.
