Exterior
Sealants
All sealants used in construction
can deteriorate from U.V. expo-

temperatures and other exposure
to weather elements.
Tape sealants used around doors,
sidewall mounted fixtures and ex-
trusions are subject to dry-out
conditions by sunlight and will
allow water seepage when they
deteriorate.
Inspect at least two times each
year and look for dried-out, crack-
ing or peeling conditions. Reseal
as necessary or at least one time
each year. Contact your dealer
for the appropriate sealant to use.
Using poor quality sealing ma-
terial.
Failure to reseal sealant and
