WT1 is 100% waterproof and does not shrink or crack. It’s ideal for waterproofing larger surface areas such as balconies, garages and conservatory.
WT1 and CT1 work together to waterproof a conservatory and protect against leaks and cracks. Leaking conservatories happen for a number of reasons including a roof that hasn’t been sealed properly. Using an inadequate sealant is one of the main causes of conservatory leaks. Silicone sealants aren’t suitable for sealing a leaking conservatory. This is because of the high amount of solvents found in the formula that evaporates when curing. When the solvents evaporate, the product shrinks and this leads to a broken seal. The silicone sealant can also become very brittle when it’s exposed to direct sunlight. This causes the seal to break apart and it loses its initial strength.
CT1 has none of the setbacks of a silicone sealant. It is U.V resistant, which means it can withstand sunlight and won’t crack or shrink when exposed to U.V rays. This powerful sealant bonds a variety of materials including concrete, metal, wood, tiles, glass and plastic. It creates a strong and flexible bond without damaging the base material. The seal will never shrink or crack, which is vital when sealing a leaking conservatory.
