Uses
The 102 Butyl Glazing Compound by Everbuild is a semi-setting glazing compound designed for use in bead or channel glazing where limited structural or thermal movement is present. This unique formula crafted by Everbuild's scientists accommodates movement caused by the frame with its elastic formula, alongside added plasticisers, to improve adhesion and prevent unwanted cracking.
Preparation
All surfaces must be prepared before commencing the application to ensure optimal results are achieved. Start by cleaning and removing any contaminants that can interfere with the adhesion, including dirt, dust, grease, oil, etc.
