Clear Aquarium Silicone Sealant - 10.2 Fluid oz Cartridge

Took an aquarium from 1992 from my childhood and with some care and work brought it back to life for my sons to enjoy. It takes 7 days to dry, and clean the old stuff off religiously, don’t mess around get every spec of it off and when you think your done do it again. Apply this product and it will work. Not a drop … not a nasty yellow color good value, applies good. Vent the room it will stink while it drys

Absolutely the best. Psi is the highest. Quality shows

I used the silicone caulk to glue my three cubes, that I bought at Petco together. Now I don't have to restack them every time I change my water. Sorry, not a great picture.

One tube resealed a 55 gallon tank for me. USA made. Would buy again!

Is a quality silicone but read the instructions wrong thinking it had a 24 hour dry but is only 24 hour cure, and has a 7-14 day dry time, which is inconvenient. It has a strong smell which takes breath away and burns your eyes when applied so use in well ventilated area. A sealant tool did not work, you have to use your fingers to smooth the seems, and only have seconds to smooth out. Seal one seam at a time because of the very short set up time and will not be able to go back and smooth the sealant. Applied a masking tape but you must immediately remove the tape, or it will damage the seem causing to remove and reapply, if removing after minutes. Keep the screw on tip installed if you don’t use entire tube. Resealed several aquariums and canister filters. Plus - Did use this sealant for greenhouse polycarbonate panels ILO the clips holds and seals. Allows for easy replacement years later versus the calking (very difficult) and foam which is unsightly.

I am pleased with the end result. I tape off my corner seams for crisp lines visible when set up. I raise Discus fish. I can't tell the difference between this and clear silicone off the shelf but decided not to risk it and chose this one. True silicone sealant is messy so have disposable rags handy.

Sealed up my aquarium nice and tight with no leaks. This stuff works. It has a strong smell but works great.

I decommissioned the drain hole from my live well on my aluminum bass boat which is on my transom under the boat’s waterline. I started the job by roughing up the outside of drain hole with 120 sandpaper and then wiping area with a damp cloth. I next took a 2” x 3” piece of aluminum sheet metal drilled two corresponding holes through sheet metal and boat’s transom. I next liberally applied Clear Aquarium Silicone to sheet metal piece and placed over former drain hole. I next coated the ends of 2 rivets with silicone and placed them through my pre drilled sheet metal holes and through my pre drilled transom holes. I rivited the rivets with my rivet gun and some of the silicone oozed out from under my sheet metal piece. Finally with my finger I wiped the silicone around the circumference of sheet metal to create a sealing bead edge. The combination of silicone and the riveted sheet metal patch is sturdy and impervious to any incoming water. The sheet metal patch is going nowhere primarily because of the rivets but also the silicone won’t budge unless I apply hundreds of pounds of pressure with a snub nose pliers. Believe me it’s securely attached.

Seems great it skins up nicely allowing time to work

la verdad al inicio se me hizo caro pero ya probandolo me encantó y me sentir que valió cada peso. Me ayudó a pegar el fondo 3D y pequeños espacios que tenía en la pecera.

Fast delivery. As per specified.

This is an outstanding product if you are resealing an aquarium or building new. It is much more costly than the silicones you can find at your local hardware store but FOR THE PURPOSE worth the money. There are two downsides that you learn from experience. (1) You need to allow a full four days for it to cure before adding water. If possible don't move the aquarium at all during that time. Impatience is likely to have you cleaning up puddles and require you to start the whole process over (including trimming ALL the earlier silicone away). (2) Because of the slow curing time, trimming any blobs where you don't want them needs to also wait on the curing, otherwise it will smear and prove to be a bigger task than it would have been with patience. Thorough preparation is needed. Trim ALL old silicone away with an exceptionally sharp razor blade and wash repeatedly with vinegar. (I never go so far as to try to separate the glass pieces.) The new silicone WON'T adhere to the old. Wipe dry with a clean lint-free towel and allow an additional 12 hours or more to air dry. Apply a good thick bead of silicone and press into the corners by running your finger along all joints while the silicone is still very soft. DON'T try for as narrow a bead of silicone as possible, especially when resealing an older aquarium. There is A BIT OF FORGIVENESS for spots of old silicone remaining if your new seam goes beyond them. Then BE PATIENT.

very good
