Yes, CT1 can be painted over once it has fully cured. It’s important to allow the sealant to dry completely, which typically takes about 24 hours, before applying paint. Make sure the surface is clean and dry before painting, and use a suitable paint that is compatible with the type of material you’ve applied CT1 to. How long does it take for CT1 to cure? Works in Wet Conditions: Unlike many other sealants and adhesives, CT1 can be applied even in damp or underwater conditions.

Immediately after applying the sealant, use a sealant tool or a moistened finger to smooth and shape the bead. This helps ensure proper adhesion and creates a neat finish. Remove any excess sealant. Flexible and Durable: Maintains its bond even under extreme conditions, including vibrations and thermal expansion. C-TEC has another CT1 grab adhesive with higher grab called CT1 Power Grab n Bond. Both CT1 Power Grab n Bond (PGNB) & Adiseal Hi-Grab are products with even higher instant grab adhesive. Unique adhesion on virtually any material in most applications without the need for additional fixings.

Bodywork Repairs: CT1 is perfect for repairing bodywork, providing a strong and flexible bond even in high-stress areas. Bonding and Sealing: CT1 is ideal for bonding and sealing various construction materials, including metal, wood, glass, plastic, and more. Application: M etals (including lead), Wood, Glass, Mirrors, MDF, Polystyrene, Fiberglass, Tiles, Concrete, Most stones, Most synthetic materials, Plastics (excluding PP, PE and PTFE) Although CT1 adhesive was not tested by Ultimate Handyman in the above adhesive strength test, he did test the old formula of both CT1 adhesive and Adiseal adhesive in a previous adhesive strength. In that test, the old formula of Adiseal adhesive was shown to be stronger than the old formula of CT1 adhesive. Both products were applied to new clean plastics cups then filled half way with tap water. They were then both covered by plastic to make sure the cups were sealed. Both cups were kept next to each other in a dark location at room temperature (cool). This mould resistance test was started on 13/07/23. The image was taken on 06/08/23 after the water removed. The lot number of the CT1 sealant white was 3941754 which we were told by C-Tec was manufactured in February 2023. The batch number of the Adiseal sealant adhesive white was 3250560.

With TRIBRID® Technology, it is scientifically proven to have excellent colour retention – white stays white and clear stays clear. Adiseal Ultra Clear is not only suitable for various applications but also serves as an effective clear gutter sealant. Its exceptional sealing capabilities extend to both dry and wet conditions. When using Adiseal as your clear gutter sealant, you can trust it to prevent leaks even during rainfall. Instant repair and bonding with fiberglass and carbon fibre materials perfect for emergency repairs In the image above, the CT1 clear sealant old formula is the one on the far right whereas their new formula is the 2nd from the right. As can be seen in the image, the CT1 clear sealant new formula turned white both below and above the water line whereas the old formula of CT1 sealant clear only turned white below the water line.

Not all sealants or mastics are truly transparent when applied, often appearing cloudy instead. However, Adiseal Ultra Clear stands out as the top choice for a waterproof clear sealant. Unlike other products like clear silicone or mastic, Adiseal delivers exceptional clarity both during application and after drying, ensuring a crystal clear finish.

If using a tube of sealant. The size of the nozzle opening will determine the width of the sealant bead. Starting at one end of the desired area, slowly and evenly apply the sealant in a continuous bead. Maintain a consistent pressure on the caulking gun or tube to ensure a smooth and uniform application.

CT1 was introduced in 1998 by C-TEC, a UK-based corporation. It was created as a one-of-a-kind hybrid polymer formulation to satisfy diverse bonding and sealing needs in construction and DIY projects.

Both products were applied to new clean plastics cups then filled with tap water half way. They were then both covered by plastic to make sure the cups were sealed. Both cups were kept next to each other in a dark location at room temperature (cool). This clear test in water was started on 13/07/23. The image was taken on 06/08/23 after the water was removed. The lot number of the CT1 sealant clear was 3843320 which we were told by C-Tec was manufactured in April 2023. The batch number of the Adiseal sealant ultra clear was 2253-0927. It would be easy for us to say Adiseal Hi-Grab is better than CT1 Power Grab n Bond but to be fair to the CT1 Power Grab n Bond adhesive, we are not making any performance comparison claims with these 2 products. We think both of these products perform similar but Adiseal Hi-Grab adhesive is lower priced than CT1 Power Grab n Bond adhesive. Adiseal excels at instantly sealing roofs, even in rainy conditions.
