Product Information

Although CT1 adhesive was not tested by Ultimate Handyman in the above adhesive strength test, he did test the old formula of both CT1 adhesive and Adiseal adhesive in a previous adhesive strength. In that test, the old formula of Adiseal adhesive was shown to be stronger than the old formula of CT1 adhesive. Application: M etals (including lead), Wood, Glass, Mirrors, MDF, Polystyrene, Fiberglass, Tiles, Concrete, Most stones, Most synthetic materials, Plastics (excluding PP, PE and PTFE) The standard adhesive drying time for Adiseal is 24 – 48 hours to fully cure. Curing times can increase in colder temperatures. Not all sealants or mastics are truly transparent when applied, often appearing cloudy instead. However, Adiseal Ultra Clear stands out as the top choice for a waterproof clear sealant. Unlike other products like clear silicone or mastic, Adiseal delivers exceptional clarity both during application and after drying, ensuring a crystal clear finish. It would be easy for us to say Adiseal Hi-Grab is better than CT1 Power Grab n Bond but to be fair to the CT1 Power Grab n Bond adhesive, we are not making any performance comparison claims with these 2 products. We think both of these products perform similar but Adiseal Hi-Grab adhesive is lower priced than CT1 Power Grab n Bond adhesive.

CT1 was introduced in 1998 by C-TEC, a UK-based corporation. It was created as a one-of-a-kind hybrid polymer formulation to satisfy diverse bonding and sealing needs in construction and DIY projects. Unique adhesion on virtually any material in most applications without the need for additional fixings. Immediately after applying the sealant, use a sealant tool or a moistened finger to smooth and shape the bead. This helps ensure proper adhesion and creates a neat finish. Remove any excess sealant.Flexible and Durable: Maintains its bond even under extreme conditions, including vibrations and thermal expansion. Yes, CT1 can be painted over once it has fully cured. It’s important to allow the sealant to dry completely, which typically takes about 24 hours, before applying paint. Make sure the surface is clean and dry before painting, and use a suitable paint that is compatible with the type of material you’ve applied CT1 to. How long does it take for CT1 to cure? When you use CT1 in your application, you’re guaranteed superb results. This is because CT1 is made with our unique TRIBRID® Technology, meaning that its core structure is three times more powerful than regular sealants in the market. Its strength is 360% stronger and more durable than other hybrid polymers. This means that CT1 is all you need for any job or application because it makes other products completely redundant.

Adiseal Ultra Clear is the top choice, staying exceptionally clear even when submerged in water. In a rigorous test, it was the only product to remain transparent both in and above water. We placed sealants and mastics from various manufacturers in clean plastic cups, filled them halfway with water, and covered them with plastic sheets for consistent conditions. The test results, shown below, highlight Adiseal Ultra Clear’s unmatched performance. Test results for clear sealant in water. Adiseal has stayed the clearest sealant. C-TEC has another CT1 grab adhesive with higher grab called CT1 Power Grab n Bond. Both CT1 Power Grab n Bond (PGNB) & Adiseal Hi-Grab are products with even higher instant grab adhesive.Works in Wet Conditions: Unlike many other sealants and adhesives, CT1 can be applied even in damp or underwater conditions. C-Tec also have another product called BT1 sealant but in a previous test in 2019, Adiseal was shown to have stronger mould resistance than BT1 sealant as well. Images of that test are available if required. Window Installation: It is widely used for installing windows, ensuring a weatherproof seal. Automotive If you’re looking for a powerful sealant and adhesive that retains its colour without turning yellow in the future, you’ve come to the right place. CT1 Clear is one of our most popular colour variations because unlike other “clear” sealants, CT1 clear stays clear.
