FAQs - Everbuild Galva Mate Galvanised and Metal Duct Sealant

1. What makes Everbuild Galva Mate suitable for metal ductwork and galvanised surfaces?
The Everbuild Galva Mate is specifically formulated to bond effectively with metal surfaces such as galvanised steel and aluminium. Its advanced adhesive properties ensure a strong, airtight, and watertight seal that resists movement, vibration, and temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for HVAC systems and other metal fabrication projects.

2. Can this sealant withstand exposure to harsh weather conditions?
Yes, Everbuild Galva Mate is weather-resistant and can endure exposure to rain, UV rays, and temperature changes. This durability makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including metal roofs, cladding, and gutter systems.

3. Is this sealant flexible enough to handle thermal expansion and contraction in metal?
Absolutely. The formula is designed to maintain flexibility even after curing, allowing it to accommodate the natural expansion and contraction of metal due to temperature variations. This ensures the seal remains intact and prevents cracking over time.

4. Can Everbuild Galva Mate be painted, and if so, how soon after application?
Yes, this sealant can be painted once it has fully cured. Depending on the application thickness and environmental conditions, curing typically takes 24-48 hours. After curing, you can paint over the sealant to match the surrounding surfaces and achieve a professional finish.

5. How does this sealant perform in high-vibration environments, such as HVAC systems?
Everbuild Galva Mate is designed to handle high-vibration environments effectively. Its durable, non-brittle formula adheres securely to metal joints and seams, preventing leaks and maintaining integrity even under constant vibration or movement in HVAC or industrial systems.

6. What tools and preparation are required for applying Everbuild Galva Mate?
To apply the sealant, you’ll need a standard sealant gun. Before application, ensure the surfaces are clean, dry, and free of grease, dust, and debris. Once the sealant is applied along the joint or seam, smooth it with a damp cloth or smoothing tool for a neat finish. Allow it to cure fully before exposing it to stress or environmental elements. Proper surface preparation and application ensure optimal performance and longevity.
