Product Description

For bedding seams, mouldings, rails, window and door frames and many other types of covered joints in portable buildings, caravans, holiday homes,
boats, freight containers and transport vehicles.

Seam seal CV Non Setting Mastic which forms an elastic tight skin that can be painted over after 24 hours.

Surface preparation: All surfaces must be clean, dry and free from frost, grease and loose materials. Apply primer if required. In situations where an
especially neat finish is required, use masking tape to cover the face edges of the joint and remove immediately once tooling has been completed
Cut the top of the screw thread off the cartridge and screw on the nozzle. Cut nozzle to correct diameter for joint size. Apply using a skeleton or powered gun
into the joint ensuring good contact with surfaces.

Properties

Curing: Seamseal CV cures by evaporation of solvent. Full cure normally occurs in 2-4 days. Rate of cure will depend on thickness, ambient temperature, joint size and design. Lower temperatures and drier conditions will result in a slower rate of cure.

3 FAQs on the Hodgson seamseal CV caravan sealant (White)

I have a 7 year old Dethleffs advantage motorhome with Heki 3 plus skylight which has just started leaking slightly. Having looked at your technical drawings it looks as if the only sure way to solve the problem will be to remove it completely and reseal. Am I right in this assumption and if so is this as straight forward as it would appear? I am a bit concerned that removing the old sealant may not be easy. Could you please advise: 1. what I am likely to need to remove the old sealant 2. what sealant should be used 3 there also appears to be a rubber seal beneath the other frame - will this need replacing at the same time? 4 can i get all the required parts from you? Thanks in advance for your help

This is a straightforward job providing a non setting sealant was used during manufacture. Once the fixing screws have been removed then the frame should lift away from the roof of the vehicle. The ease with which it lifts will depend upon the sealant used. We recommend using a non setting sealant when replacing such as our ref. 205932. The old sealant will need to be removed with a chisel type tool.<br />The rubber seal should not need replacing unless it is cracked.

I asked for advise on which sealant is recommended for Seitz S4 windows when fitting a new rubber outer frame to outer wall seal on my caravan. On 10th. August & 29th August 2013. I have not yet received the Seals ordered from yourselves. But I would appreciate an answer to my question, as I do not wish to use a wrong Sealant for this situation. Many Thanks. Regards Adrian Meek

We would normally use a non setting mastic such as the Carafax IDL.

Hi I have just purchased a REMIS 400 skylight from you, can I use Sikaflex 512 as a seal between the skylight and the roof

Yes you can but it is not easy to remove should you need to change the rooflight in the future, We normally use a non setting mastic such as Carafax IDL.

Great professional service

Great professional service. As an amateur customer fixing instructions and screws would have been a bonus. But, it's not to difficult to figure out how and find screws. I'll be ordering a second now I know I can do the job myself.

I can see clearly now…

by Trevor Middleton (19 Sep 2021)

(5/5)

In urgent need of a rooflight to replace the one I’d found to be leaking (typically, on a Sunday evening), I found a direct replacement on Leisureshopdirect and ordered it within minutes on my phone. It was really useful that they also recommend and sell the sealant to use with it as a simple add-on, which meant no leaving the shopping cart to search the rest of the site, which can be a pain on a phone. The items arrived just over 24 hours later, well-wrapped and in perfect condition, and the tracking information meant I knew where my items where every step of the way. A simple ordering process and great after-sales service: what more could you want?

I have used Leisureshopdirect twice now and never been disappointed with their service. Their communication is spot on. Leisureshopdirect will be my first choice when I next need parts for my motorcaravan building project.

Brilliant

by Martin F (28 Apr 2016)

(4/5)

This Hodgson Mastic Non-Setting Caravan Sealant was easy to apply and went on where I wanted it to thanks to the nozzle - some nozzles are too big, but not this one.
I was very pleased with the price and it was an excellent purchase.
My only concern will be its longevity, but that is something I can only wait and see on that.

Great Sealer
