Sealant plays an important role in many types of DIY projects – from sealing windows and doors to filling cracks in walls and panels. The right sealant not only ensures a neat finish but also protects against moisture, movement and temperature fluctuations. There is a wide range of different types and brands on the market, so choosing the most suitable solution for your specific project can be challenging.

This article provides an overview of the most important aspects to consider before buying a sealant, as well as a look at the different types and brands, to help you more easily find the right option for your needs.

The article presents a wide range of sealants covering various applications – from indoor acrylic sealants to silicone and hybrid sealants intended for outdoor use. The aim is to provide an overview of features, uses and price levels so that you can choose the type that best suits your project. The product information is based on descriptions from manufacturers and retailers and has been summarised to provide a clear and informative overview.

Factors to consider when buying a sealant

When choosing a sealant, it is important to consider the material, environment and desired appearance. Here are some of the most important factors to think about.

1. Application

Consider where the sealant will be used. Acrylic sealant is generally suitable for sealing skirting boards and panels indoors, while bathrooms and kitchens, where humidity is high, require silicone sealant. Outdoor projects demand weather resistance and flexibility.

2. Type of material

Sealants come in several chemical compositions, each with its own strengths. Acrylic is easy to paint and suitable for indoor use, while silicone is flexible and water-repellent. Hybrid sealants combine the properties of both and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

3. Colour and finish

Sealants come in many colours, so you can choose a shade that matches the wall, wood or tiles. If you plan to paint over the sealant, make sure the product is paintable – not all silicone sealants are.

4. Flexibility and movement

Buildings move over time, and joints must be able to follow that movement. In areas where movement occurs, such as around windows and doors, it is important to choose a flexible sealant that will not crack or come loose under stress.

5. Durability and maintenance

A good sealant should last for several years without losing its adhesion or colour. Consider whether the joint needs to withstand cleaning, sunlight or frost depending on its application.

Different types of sealants

There are many types of sealants, each developed for a specific purpose. Here we go through the most common types and their characteristics.

1. Acrylic sealant

Acrylic sealants are popular for indoor use, especially around panels, door frames and walls. They are easy to apply, can be painted and provide a neat, even finish. However, they should not be used in damp areas as they are not waterproof.

2. Silicone sealant

Silicone sealants are ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and other damp areas. They are highly flexible, water-repellent and mould-resistant. The downside is that they usually cannot be painted, and removing excess silicone can be difficult.

3. Polyurethane sealant

This type is often used for outdoor work where strength and flexibility are required. It adheres well to many materials and withstands both movement and weather conditions. However, polyurethane sealants can be more difficult to work with than acrylic or silicone.

4. Hybrid sealant (MS polymer)

Hybrid sealants combine the advantages of silicone and polyurethane. They are strong, flexible, UV-resistant and often paintable. Therefore, they are a good choice for both indoor and outdoor use when a versatile solution is desired.

5. Special sealants

There are also special products, such as fire-retardant sealants, marine sealants or products suitable for natural stone, where ordinary sealants could cause discolouration. These are mainly used in technical or professional applications.

Frequently asked questions

Which sealant should I choose for the bathroom?

For bathrooms, you should choose a silicone sealant because it is waterproof and mould-resistant. Make sure you choose a model intended for wet areas.

Can I paint over the sealant?

Acrylic sealants and many hybrid sealants can be painted, whereas silicone sealants usually cannot. If you want a uniform look, choose a paintable sealant from the start.

How long does a sealant last?

Durability depends on the type and the level of stress. Indoor acrylic sealants can last for several years, while outdoor sealants are exposed to sun, frost and movement, which can shorten their lifespan. Regular inspection and renewal when necessary is recommended.

How do I remove old sealant?

Old sealant can be removed with a sealant knife or a special tool. Silicone can be softened with a silicone remover, while acrylic can often be scraped off mechanically. Make sure the surface is clean and dry before resealing.

Why is my sealant cracking?

Cracks can be caused by material movement, the wrong choice of sealant or incorrect application. Choose a flexible sealant for areas where movement may occur and ensure proper surface preparation.
