The Story
Everbuild External Frame Sealant in brown is a flexible, paintable acrylic sealant supplied in a 290ml cartridge, designed for sealing around exterior door and window frames on timber, uPVC, brick, and masonry substrates. It provides a weather-resistant, draught-proof seal that stays flexible as frames move seasonally.
Specifications
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Brand | Everbuild |
| Type | Acrylic frame sealant |
| Colour | Brown |
| Volume | 290ml cartridge |
| Application | Exterior |
| Finish | Paintable |
| Suitable Substrates | Timber, uPVC, brick, masonry |
What it's used for
- Sealing the perimeter of external timber door frames and window frames to prevent water ingress and draught penetration
- Filling movement joints between timber frames and masonry or brick reveals on new builds and renovation projects
- Sealing around uPVC door and window frames where a brown finish blends with surrounding timber or stained woodwork
- Finishing exposed joints on outbuilding, garage, and garden room frames before painting or staining
Fitting and handling
Load the 290ml cartridge into a standard skeleton gun and cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to suit the joint width. Apply in dry conditions above 5 degrees Celsius, pressing the sealant firmly into the joint and tooling smooth with a wetted finger or spatula before a skin forms. Once fully cured, the sealant can be overpainted with most water-based exterior paints, making it straightforward to match the surrounding frame colour.
FAQ
Can Everbuild External Frame Sealant be painted over?
Yes. Once the sealant has fully cured, it accepts water-based exterior paints without adhesion problems. Allow the recommended cure time stated on the packaging before applying paint, and ensure the surface is clean and dry.
Is this sealant suitable for uPVC window frames as well as timber?
Yes. Everbuild External Frame Sealant bonds to uPVC, timber, brick, and masonry, making it a practical choice for mixed-substrate joints common on UK properties where timber sub-frames sit within masonry openings.
How long does a 290ml cartridge cover?
Coverage depends on joint width and depth. As a general guide, a 290ml cartridge will seal approximately 8 to 12 metres at a 6mm bead width. Narrower joints will extend coverage further.
