Product Details

Bostik® No More Nails® Sealant – High-Performance Multi-Purpose Silicone

Bostik No More Nails is a versatile, high-grade silicone sealant designed to provide a durable, flexible seal for a wide variety of construction and repair tasks. Known for its "no-fuss" application, this 275ml cartridge is engineered to bridge gaps and seal joints where movement and moisture resistance are essential.

It is particularly effective for those seeking a professional finish on common household and job-site substrates without the need for mechanical fixings.

Key Features

  • Waterproof & Weatherproof: Provides a tight seal that stands up to rain, humidity, and temperature fluctuations.
  • Permanent Flexibility: Remains elastic after curing, allowing it to absorb structural movement without cracking or shrinking.
  • Strong Adhesion: Bonds effectively to non-porous surfaces like glass, ceramics, aluminum, and fiberglass.
  • UV Resistant: Formulated to resist yellowing and degradation from sun exposure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
  • Easy Tooling: Smooth consistency allows for a clean, professional bead that is easy to finish.

Pro Tips for Professionals

1. Preparation: Always wipe surfaces with a dry cloth or alcohol-based cleaner to remove oils.
2. The Bead: Cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to the desired width of the gap.
3. Smoothing: For the cleanest look, tool the sealant immediately after application using a dedicated profiling tool or a gloved finger dipped in mild soapy water.

Note: Standard silicone is typically not paintable; if you plan to paint over the seal, ensure you are using a "paintable" hybrid variant.
