Maintenance Tips
- Keep surfaces dry after use: Allow a full 24 hours cure time before exposing to water for maximum waterproof strength.
- Clean regularly: Wipe sealed areas (tubs, sinks, showers) with mild soap and water to prevent soap scum and mold buildup.
- Inspect every 6–12 months: Look for cracks, gaps, or peeling—especially around tubs, sinks, and tile joints.
- Avoid harsh cleaners: Bleach-heavy or abrasive chemicals can weaken silicone over time.
- Maintain good ventilation: Reduce moisture buildup in bathrooms to extend mold resistance performance.
- Check adhesion areas: If edges start lifting, remove and reapply fully—silicone works best when not patched over old caulk.
- Prevent standing water: Keep water from pooling directly on caulked seams for longer life.
- Re-caulk when needed: Fully replace deteriorated sections to maintain a continuous waterproof seal.
