joint substrates include the following: metal, glass, porcelain tile, and glazed surfaces of
ceramic tile.
F. Joint Priming: Prime joint substrates, unless otherwise recommended in writing by joint-sealant
manufacturer, based on preconstruction joint-sealant-substrate tests or prior experience. Apply

joint-sealant bond; do not allow spillage or migration onto adjoining surfaces.
G. Masking Tape: Use masking tape where required to prevent contact of sealant with adjoining
surfaces that otherwise would be permanently stained or damaged by such contact or by cleaning
methods required to remove sealant smears. Remove tape immediately after tooling without
disturbing joint seal.
3.2 INSTALLATION

which allow optimum sealant movement capability.
G. Tooling of Nonsag Sealants: Immediately after sealant application and prior to time skinning or
curing begins, tool sealants to form smooth, uniform beads of configuration indicated, to eliminate
air pockets, and to ensure contact and adhesion of sealant with sides of joint. Remove excess
sealants from surfaces adjacent to joint. Do not use tooling agents which discolor sealants or
adjacent surfaces or are not approved by sealant manufacturer.

LAZ-2/12/10 JOINT SEALANTS 0 7 9 0 0 - 1 0
A. Field-Adhesion Testing: Field-test joint-sealant adhesion to joint substrates as follows:
1. Extent of Testing: Test completed elastomeric sealant joints as follows:

per elevation.
2. Test Method: Field Test joint sealants: sealant adhesion to substrates per standard field
adhesion hand pull tests per Sealant manufacturer’s recommendations.
a. For joints with dissimilar substrates, verify adhesion to each substrate separately; do this
by extending cut along one side, verifying adhesion to opposite side. Repeat procedure
for opposite side.
3. Inspect joints for complete fill, for absence of voids, and for joint configuration complying with
specified requirements. Record test results in a field adhesion test log. Include dates when
sealants were installed, names of persons who installed sealants, test dates, test locations,
whether joints were primed, adhesion results and percent elongations, sealant fill, sealant
configuration, and sealant dimensions.
4. Repair sealants pulled from test area by applying new sealants following same procedures
used to originally seal joints. Ensure that original sealant surfaces are clean and new sealant
contacts original sealant.
B. Evaluation of Field-Test Results: Sealants not evidencing adhesive failure from testing or
noncompliance with other indicated requirements, will be considered satisfactory. Remove sealants
that fail to adhere to joint substrates during testing or to comply with other requirements. Retest
failed applications until test results prove sealants comply with indicated requirements.
3.4 CLEANING & PROTECTION
A. Clean off excess sealants or sealant smears adjacent to joints as work progresses by methods and
with cleaning materials approved by manufacturers of joint sealants and of products in which joints
occur.
B. Protect joint sealants during and after curing period from contact with contaminating substances or
from damage resulting from construction operations or other causes so that they are without
deterioration or damage at time of Substantial Completion and Owner Final Acceptance. If, despite
such protection, damage or deterioration occurs, cut out and remove damaged or deteriorated joint
sealants immediately and reseal joints with new materials to produce joint sealant installations with
repaired areas indistinguishable from original work.
