Silicone adhesives are used to protect and repair a variety of indoor and outdoor household projects.
Silicone adhesives bond and seal the spaces between surfaces like tiles and walls, while preventing environmental elements such as water and air from penetrating and damaging building materials. An assortment of adhesive sealants are available, each designed to meet the particular requirements of specific materials and environmental climates. A quick look at the label can generally tell which one is the right adhesive sealant for any given task.
