Description

Seal up the gaps in your home to prevent draughts and other irritants from getting in.

The Gap Fillers Kit contains all the essential products to fill and seal the gaps and cracks in your wooden floorboards, around skirting boards, architraves, windows, doors, walls, wall vents and floor vents. 

Over time, all houses experience some movement. They move because the earth is constantly moving in different directions every minute of every day. The Earth rotates around its own axis (night and day); orbits the sun (different seasons); and it moves underneath our feet by just a few millimetres every year. This movement builds up over time until there is an earthquake or volcanic eruption. We don’t feel these minuscule movements every day but our house does and in order to compensate the gaps and cracks start to appear throughout our homes, (and yes every home that isn’t built on spring-loaded stumps).

These gaps and cracks are one of the most common ways that unwanted draughts enter your home causing dramatic fluctuations in temperature inside your home. They are responsible for a significant part of your heating and cooling costs as well as contributing to your home quickly becoming uncomfortable as soon as your heating / cooling it turned off. 

Filling the gaps and cracks in your home will make a tremendous difference to your inside temperature, reducing your energy usage and a significant difference in your comfort, and it’s good for the environment too.

One of the many great things about Ultraclear is that it is flexible and will withstand much of the everyday minuscule movement of your home. 

The Gap Fillers Kit comes in two sizes:  MEDIUM and SMALL 

 

MEDIUM Kit - suitable for the more "gappy" home

  • * Five (5) tubes of Ultraclear (also known as Ultra Clear or FulaSeal 701 Ultra Clear) – it will fit any cartridge caulking gun
  • * One pack of gap sealant spreaders giving you a smooth surface finish
  • * 5 metres of 10mm gap filler rods to provide a surface for the Ultraclear to seal against for larger-sized gaps
  • * 5 metres of 6mm gap filler rods to fill the small-sized gaps

 

SMALL Kit - suitable for a less "gappy" home

  • * Three (3) tubes of Ultraclear (also known as Ultra Clear or FulaSeal 701 Ultra Clear) – it will fit any cartridge caulking gun
  • * One pack of gap sealant spreaders giving you a smooth surface finish
  • * 5 metres of 10mm gap filler rods to provide a surface for the Ultraclear to seal against for larger-sized gaps

 

FulaSeal 701 Ultra Clear is a water-based highly flexible gap sealant. It is white when applied and clear when it dries. It is virtually invisible and flexible enough to expand and contract with the movement of a building.

Fill the gaps and cracks in your home today. Eliminate the draughts, feel comfortable all year round, and significantly reduce your energy costs. The Gaps and Cracks Kit makes it so easy for you to Do It Yourself.

About

How it works:

FulaSeal 701 Ultra Clear is a water-based, highly flexible gap sealant that is white when applied and clear when dry. This virtually invisible sealant is flexible enough to expand and contract with the movement of a building.

Ultraclear is applied to gaps and cracks using a caulking gun and effectively draughts around floorboards, architraves, skirting boards, windows and air vents.

With the Included back block foam filling rod, filling large gaps is made easy. Just press the best sized filling rod into the gap leaving a 5mm space at the surface of your gap for you to seal with the Ultra Clear Gap sealant. Sealing the rod over will ensure it stays in place and that gap is sealed completely. 

During the caulking process, excess sealant can be easily cleaned up with silicone spreaders and a damp cloth when wet.

FAQ

 

Q: What is the difference between Ultra Clear, Ultraclear and Fulaseal 701 Flexible Ultra Clear?
A: There is no difference - it is the same fabulous product. 

Q: What surfaces can I seal with Ultraclear?
A: Ultraclear can be used with fibreglass, glass, metal, plasterboard, concrete, cement sheet, ceramic tiles, brick and timber. Due to its water resistance, Ultraclear can be used to seal gaps and cracks in bathrooms and kitchens. Ultraclear can be used with plastics but test it first. Ultraclear can also be used to seal polycarbonate roofing. 

Q: Do I need to buy a caulking gun?
A: Yes you do. There are lots of choices for caulking guns at your local hardware store. Make sure to invest in a caulking gun that allows you to withdraw pressure on the gun when applying the sealant. Some cheaper guns maintain pressure on the tube when you let go of the trigger causing the Ultraclear to spill out of the gun. If you are based in Melbourne, we have a rental service where you can hire top quality trade tools for a week to help you get your jobs done! 

Q: I've never tried caulking gaps myself yet. Do you provide guides on how to go about this?
A: We do have instructional VIDEOS to ensure you get a great finish. The videos are also available under the How To tab. All the instructional videos you'll need for a successful DIY caulking job are there. 

Q: How do I make a neat finish with Fullers Ultraclear?
A: How do I make a neat finish with Fullers Ultraclear? 

Q: Does Ultraclear shrink once it is installed?
A: Yes It can shrink a bit if it has been applied in a thick manner. Just let it dry completely and reapply a thin layer over the top of the existing sealant. 

Q: Is Ultraclear difficult to clean up like silicone?
A: No. One of the reasons we love Ultraclear is that it is a water-based sealant so it's very easily cleaned with water. Just wet a piece of cloth with water, and wipe off the excess sealant from the surface. Whilst it is easy to do, it is important that this is done BEFORE the sealant dries. Once Ultraclear dries it is much harder to remove. 

Q: What if I applied Ultraclear without first cleaning the area of application?
A: You will be sealing the dust and other foreign particles in too. Cleaning the area to be sealed FIRST is a critical step to ensure maximum adhesion. Ultraclear dries to a transparent finish. It will lose that transparency if you can see dust and grime sealed in with it.

If you missed cleaning the surface first before application, and the sealant is not yet cured, you can use a damp cloth to remove it. Once the sealant is cured, you will have to use a knife, scraper, or other mechanical means to remove it. 

Q: Can I use this on a metal surface?
A: Yes, of course. Although adhesion to metal is a bit different when compared to timber or cement. This can be improved by light sanding prior to sealant application. 

Q: How long will it take for the sealant to cure?
A: Full cure is normally achieved in 5-7 days depending on bead size, weather conditions and substrates. Larger sections of sealant will take longer to cure. Fulaseal 701 Flexible Ultra Clear sealant relies on water evaporation to cure; therefore applying sealant on non porous substrates will extend curing time. During warmer weather, the sealant will cure much faster. 

Q: Can I paint over the Ultraclear sealant?
A: Yes, it can be painted with water based paints once tack free (approximately 30 minutes). If you will be using oil based paint, though, please allow 5-7 curing days before painting. If the weather is cold, the curing process may benefit from heating the space to cure the sealant more quickly. 

Q: How flexible is the sealant?
A: Offers permanent flexibility with up to 25% joint movement capability. 

Q: Will the sealant go mouldy?
A: It is mould resistant, so great for use in bathrooms and kitchens.
