    Default Evo-stik Sealant

    Hi

    has anyone used Evo-stik kitchen, shower and bath sealant before? First time I have used it (as supplied) but when I used my mist spray before removing excess I found that the water turned milky white.
    Checked today and seal seems okay.
    First time I have noticed such a white residue when using a sealant.
    Is this normal for this product?

    Cheers

    Frogeye

    I have just read the info on the tube - it states it is an acrylic low odour sealant. I am used to the high modular silicone ones. As I said earlier, this is a new one on me.

    Nice to use and not have that astringent smell hit you but a bit of a worry when you watch it being washed away as you smooth it.

    Says its waterproof though - must be when set

    cheers for the reply

    Well to answer my own question, and for completeness, don't use it for around baths.
    This must be a water based product.
    Not as flexible or durable as a good high modular sealant.
    In process of removing - easy - which is a clue - back to some of the good stuff.
