TITE-SEAL BUTYL is a self-adhesive waterproof flashing building material that adheres to plywood, OSB, masonry, aluminum, vinyl, steel, drywall, and housewrap.

BENEFITS AND INTENDED USE:

TITE-SEAL BUTYL building material seals around nails and other mechanical fasteners, and is impermeable to water, moisture vapor and air. It can be used to flash around windows and doors, and to seal joints, the area around vents, and other openings under most exterior surfaces including brick, stucco and wood, vinyl and metal siding.

SURFACE PREPARATION AND INSTALLATION:

The surface to receive TITE SEAL BUTYL building material must be clean, dry and free from oil, grease or debris. TITE SEAL BUTYL building material can be applied in temperatures as low as 0° F. It's installed by removing the release paper and firmly pressing the membrane onto the surface. To simplify handling on vertical surfaces, pre-cut the membrane into lengths that fit the window. TITE SEAL BUTYL building material can be easily cut with a scissors or utility knife.

To insure that moisture flows over the laps, start at the bottom and work up. Side strips should be installed next and should overlap the bottom. The head of the window should be completed last. All overlaps should be a minimum of four inches. Be sure to eliminate air pockets as you go, and roll with a hand roller to assure smooth, uninterrupted contact.

WARNING:

• Use caution to avoid falls when using ladders or scaffolding.
• Store in a cool dry place until ready for use
• Test adhesion with a small piece of TITE-SEAL BUTYL Do not install without proper adhesion.
