ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
\nCaptain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure is a low viscosity, specially blended, acrylic copolymer, emulsion-based product with exceptional penetrating properties.
\nOnce set, Captain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure has good flexibility and bond strength.
\nIts exceptional penetrating properties enable it to be absorbed into fine hairline cracks with minimal assistance and penetrate deep into the structure.
\nAs the product sets, it will seal the crack helping to prevent further ingress of moisture and, provided that the cracks are clean, a good bond will be obtained to the surfaces.<\/p>\n
TECHNICAL DATA
\nMinimum film forming temperature: 0 c
\nCapillary rise: (0.5mm diam: 26 mm
\nViscosity (BS 3900 Pt 6): 17 c Stoke
\nSurface tension (Du Noilly Tensiometer): 34 dyne\/cm
\nAdhesion: 1 N\/mm2
\nElongation: 500%<\/p>\n
PREPARATION
\nThe area to be sealed must be clean and as dry as possible. If the area is wet and greasy, it is unlikely that good results will be obtained<\/p>\n
APPLICATION
\nCaptain Tolley’s Creeping Crack Cure is water based and should be applied to as dry a surface as possible otherwise the product will be too dilute to be effective. The water content of the product must dry out, either through the surroundings or evaporate.
\nOn horizontal surfaces, drizzle directly into the crack from the bottle.
\nApplication with a hypodermic syringe is necessary
\nfor overhead operations.
\nVertical cracks need to have ‘swallow nests’ of putty, clay or mastic to allow the product to penetrate sideways, or the cracks may be covered with masking tape.
\nApply at 30 minute intervals until no more Creeping Crack Cure is absorbed. Check for wastage and protect surfaces liable to damage from the product. To ensure that the areas are
\neffectively sealed, repeat treatment after 24 hours.<\/p>\n
SIZE OF CRACKS
\nIn general, cracks or gaps should not exceed 1mm. If the crack or gap is too large, the product may not set and may form a reservoir of liquid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
This penetrating co-polymer sealant is formulated to be so thin that by using capillary action it can find its way INSIDE fine cracks and set to a CLEAR flexible seal. Use for leaking windows, portlights, decks, coachroofs, deck houses, etc. , crac ked planks, centreboard casings, around all deck fittings, skin fittings, plumbing, trim – or any other fine leaks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2642,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[2380,1364,1375],"product_tag":[1575],"class_list":["post-2644","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-adhesives-and-sealants","product_cat-chandlery","product_cat-maintainance","product_tag-capt-tolley","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"\n
