SHELF LIFE 12 months when stored as recommended in original unopened packaging. STORAGE Store in original, undamaged packaging in a clean, dry, protected location with temperature between 5-43OC. APPLICABLE STANDARDS Spectrem 1 meets or exceeds the requirements of the following specifications: ASTM C920 Type S, Grade NS, Class 100/50, Use NT, M, G, A and O. SUBSTRATE PREPARATION Surface must be sound, clean, and dry. Contact surfaces should be free of loose dirt, dust, oils, and any other contaminants. Tremco recommends that air temperatures be 5 °C or above before applying any sealant. If colder weather is imminent, please contact Tremco Technical Services or your local Tremco Sales Representative. JOINT BACKING Closed-cell polyethylene backer rods or the Tremco seal- ant tape illmod 600 is preferred as joint backing to con- trol depth of sealant bead. Where depth of joint will pre- vent use of joint backing, an adhesive-backed polyethylene tape should be installed to prevent three-sided adhesion. Joint backing must be dry at time of the sealant application. PRIMING Always perform project specific field testing to verify adhesion of the sealant to the substrate. If necessary, Tremco Silicone Metal Primer or Tremco Silicone Porous Primer may be needed. APPLICATION Spectrem 1 is easy to apply with conventional caulking equipment. Fill joint completely and tool. At 23.9 ̊C, 50% RH, a durable skin will form within 10 to 30 min. CLEAN UP Excess sealant and smears adjacent to the joint interface can be carefully removed with IPA Cleaner before the sealant cures. Any utensils used for tooling can also be cleaned with IPA Cleaner. HEALTH & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) must be read and understood prior to use.
