Good day, dear subscribers and guests of the channel!
When the toilet is finally in its rightful place, the seam at its base must be treated with silicone. It seems that there is nothing complicated in this procedure, and problems are unlikely to arise.
In reality, many people get a very uneven and sloppy seam. And this one minor detail can ruin all the work done.
For the result to please you, you need to seal the seam correctly, having previously studied the technology.
I will share with you a small life hack that I myself have been using for a long time.
When dealing with silicone sealant, it is necessary to adhere to one "iron" rule. It can be applied exclusively to a dry and clean surface. At the same time, it is recommended to first degrease it.
Those. before you squeeze out the silicone, you must definitely take the time to prepare the surface.
The process of sealing the joint with a sealant does not cause problems. Insert the silicone tube into a special gun, and then carefully fill the gap. Try to move without stopping so that the seam is even.
Many people find it difficult to smooth out the sealant because it is too sticky. Silicone adheres reliably to dry and degreased surfaces, and therefore it is quite problematic to wipe it off later.
When forming a seam, you need to try not to fill other surfaces with sealant. The seam along the edges can be pasted over with masking tape, and it is convenient to use a spatula to form a seam.
I use a slightly different method, but masking tape is not useful to me.
After applying silicone, I wet the seam and adjacent surfaces with soapy water.
I shape the seam without a spatula, using only my finger soaked in the same soapy solution. As a result, everything looks neat, smooth and very beautiful! Try it!
