Polyurethane Premium Construction Adhesive Sealant, Black, 10.1 Oz (7079818816)

After heavy rains this winter I discovered a leak onto our bedroom ceiling. Upon checking our roof I found a badly broken tile and began a search for materials suitable for its reliable long-term repair. My key criteria included: * Exceptional bonding to my cement tile material * Long-term elasticity to accommodate differential expansions over time and weather conditions * Waterproof to a maximum extent to resist debonding after months & years of winter rains * Ability to last for years of exposure to direct sunlight and high rooftop temperatures * Be easily workable and able to readily wet to my bonding surfaces to achieve a reliable long-term waterproof bond In the past I have used black Polyurethane roof-patching materials with good success, particularly when I pretreated the area to be sealed with a painters solvent to achieve extremely good surface wetting of difficult to clean, often dusty rooftop surfaces. For my current tile-bonding application, I should be able to achieve good surface cleaning, and my previous black Polyurethane roof-patching material was no longer available. So after reviewing a number of bonding-material candidates I went with this DAP material in a gray color to sort-of match the gray tile. The one apprehension I had was the number of negative reviews about the excessive stiffness of the material as received by some Amazon reviewers. As my tile crack was weathered and filled with dirt, I decided to open my tile crack up into a V-groove with a diamond saw...thus producing smooth virgin tile surfaces for the caulk to bond to. The V-groove also aids in working the caulk into the joint to assure total filling and thorough surface contact. To expand the total bond area, the surface of the tile was also thoroughly cleaned adjacent to the groove and along the tile edges with an angle-grinder power wire brush to allow the crack adhesive to be spread out onto the tile surface adjacent to the V-groove and to seal the tile left longitudinal side crack which feeds water to the overlap seal with the adjacent tile. Since the lower part of the overlap seal on the left side is interrupted by the break, and is not visible from the surface, it represents a more difficult situation to reliably seal. This was addressed by buttering the left overlap seal break area with caulk before sliding the tile piece into place, and then filling the left-hand tile joint with caulk to minimize water reaching this difficult sealing area. Despite a number of negative comments about the excessive stiffness of the DAP caulk, it was found to be exceptionally easy to eject and spread, and appeared to wet surfaces immediately, and trowel smoothly, promising a excellent waterproof bond. My guess is that those negative reviews about excessive stiffness may be associated with folks that didn't recognize the cartridge is shipped with an internal diaphragm that must be punctured with a ram rod down the snout after the cone tip is cut off. Once this was done, my caulk flowed extremely easily. So far...highly recommended. We'll see how long it lasts!

Bought 2 tubes actually. I had to plug up a few dozen holes in the floor where lag bolts used to be. This stuff worked GREAT!!! - after I figured out that the hole and floor around it had to be clean - which is what I would have known if I read the instructions first. These holes are in a floor that has been treated with an epoxy coat, so it was important to sweep, brush hole with wire tooth-brush tool, and wipe away all the fine dust with a damp cloth. Next day I plugged the holes with DAP and calk gun. Needed some good grip strength to work the caulk gun. It gets easier as the tube empties out. I FORGOT a putty knife to make the plugs flat to the floor with a little bit of a collar around each hole for sealing. Greg cardboard worked fine. Set up was about a day, and 3 days later we were moving stuff over the holes and the DAP held in fine. I like this stuff, and probably will tend to buy it if I need it here again or at home. It is a little more expensive than some of the other products, but it is worth it for its durability. Oh, it was a little smelly during application, but smell was gone the next day. ThankS! : )

I did a lot of research and settled on this product to complete the project I was performing. I have a cinder block home that has stucco over it then painted. There seems to be a shift in the foundation over the years and there were numerous cracks on the outside walls. While I new this profuct would not hold my house together, not only do the cracks look bad, but water and bugs could get inside the walls. I read the directions and put on some rubber gloves since this stuff is heck to get off your hands, and basically ran a bead of it on top of the cracks then pushed it in and smoothed it around to blend in with the stucco. It says to wait 7 days to paint over it with no primer needed. I painted over it in 7 days and it looks professionally done. I would buy this product again if needed.

Works perfect for my needs. Used to adhere a new end cap to my truck bed step.

09/14/2016: I still swear by this product. Just had two more tubes delivered. This is a good product. It remains pliable and holds strong to porous surfaces (wood, brick, cement, hands, fingers, hair etc). Give it 48 hours to cure before stressing, flexing or painting over it and it'll make a good/successful bond/seal. I use it in boat building and repair and for about half the cost of the similar 3M products, this is a good deal. It also makes a good window sealer, especially for boats due to the pliability. Boats flex and a sealer that is too stiff will start leaking within 1-2 years. It does shrink a little so keep that in mind if using it as a decorative trim. Try it, I think you gonna like it. Keep it off your hands. Now to test a tube of the white. Thanks AU //(~_~)\\

The product seem to work but it must’ve been damaged a little sense it leaked out of the bottom of the container.

If you are looking for a super durable waterproof caulk this is the real deal. Not sure why but neither of the two big box home improvement stores carry it. I’ve used it for caulking around windows and doors as well as areas where concrete butts up against wood ( sidewalk and patio areas). It’s very sticky when you apply it. When this stuff dries and cures, it becomes very firm but still flexible. Its consistency is like a hard rubber. Very durable. One minor heads-up - The stuff is very difficult to squeeze out of the tube with a caulk gun. You would need the hand strength of an adult Orangutan to do it. I ended up using a heat gun to warm it up so it was easier to apply.

I couldn't even open it

Excellent for roof

I couldn't use the product because it was dry. It has good quality but be sure seller doesn’t send you old product. Otherwise, like me, you will throw it away without using it.
