Kerakoll Fugabella Silicone Color 34 310ml

What is Silicone?

Silicone is a synthetic rubber-like material known for its elasticity, waterproof properties, and resistance to extreme temperatures. It’s commonly used as a sealant in construction and various other applications. In the world of tiling, silicone fills gaps between tiles, creating a watertight barrier and preventing cracks.

What is the Use of Silicone?

Silicone for tiles, like Kerakoll Fugabella Silicone Color, plays a vital role in:
Preventing Leaks: By sealing the gaps between tiles, silicone stops water from seeping through, protecting your walls, floors, and underlying structures from moisture damage. This is especially crucial in areas like bathrooms, kitchens, showers, and around pools.
Accommodating Movement: Tiles can expand and contract slightly due to temperature changes. Silicone’s elasticity allows it to flex with these movements, preventing the grout from cracking and maintaining a watertight seal.
Enhancing Aesthetics: Silicone comes in various colors, allowing you to create a finished look that complements your tiles. Kerakoll Fugabella Silicone Color offers a whopping 50 color options, letting you achieve a seamless or contrasting grout line based on your design preference.

How to Use Silicone?

Using silicone for tile grouting typically involves these steps:
Clean and Dry the Surface: Ensure the area between the tiles is free of dirt, debris, and moisture for optimal adhesion.
Apply Backer Rod (Optional): In wider joints, a backer rod can be used to ensure the proper depth of silicone and prevent overfilling.
Cut the Silicone Cartridge Nozzle: Cut the nozzle at an angle slightly larger than the joint width for smooth application.
Apply Silicone with a Caulk Gun: Load the cartridge into a caulking gun and steadily apply the silicone along the joint, ensuring good contact with both tile edges.
Tool and Smooth the Surface: Use a smoothing tool or your wet finger to create a clean and even finish.
Allow for Curing: Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for drying and curing times before using the area.
