Highly Elastic and Weather-Resistant Universal Sealing
Everglue Forever TIGHT is a one-component liquid sealant without solvents, used for sealing horizontal and vertical surfaces. It is moisture-curing and can be applied on dry or wet substrates. Gaps can be easily bridged. After a short curing time of only 3 hours per millimeter of layer thickness, the sealant effectively protects against weather and environmental influences such as rain, snow, and frost, as well as chemical influences. The result is a highly elastic protective layer that is UV-resistant and temperature-resistant from -40 °C to +90 °C. Once completely dry, the surface is no longer sticky to the touch and can be painted over. Thanks to its water vapor permeability, excess moisture can evaporate from the treated substrate, protecting the sealed surface from condensation and preventing mold formation.

Breathable Liquid Sealing for Construction and Repairs
Everglue Forever TIGHT complies with the standard DIN EN 1504-2:2004 regarding the requirements for products and systems for the protection and repair of concrete structures. The universal sealant is also excellent for sealing joints, pipe collars, skylights, domes, and edges around chimneys. Use it for sustainable sealing of various leaks and cracks on roofs and walls, as well as for protecting wooden constructions.
Consumption
- 1.4 kg/m² for a 1 mm layer
- 2 kg/m² for a 2 mm layer with fleece
Application Notes
- The surface must be solid and clean (free from dust and grease). Remove all loose and poorly bonded parts.
- The liquid sealant adheres excellently to numerous surfaces such as concrete, cement screed, glass, ceramics, tiles, wood, and metal. However, we recommend performing an adhesion test before use.
- The liquid sealant can be used without a primer and on various wet surfaces, but not in the presence of standing water.
- Before use, the liquid sealant must be thoroughly stirred, for example with a cordless drill with a paint mixer attached. Apply the liquid sealant with a brush or roller in two layers until a total thickness of about 2 mm is achieved. The second layer can only be applied after the first has fully cured (after about 3 hours at +23 °C, 50% relative humidity). After another approx. 12 hours, the surface should be dry and ready for further work.
- To achieve optimal properties of expansion joints, they must be properly dimensioned beforehand. An appropriate surface material should be used that does not adhere to the liquid sealant (e.g., polyethylene foam). For optimal elastic properties of the sealant, we recommend preparing an expansion joint with a width-depth ratio of 2:1, maximum 1:1 (minimum joint width 6 mm, maximum joint width 20 mm).
- Uncured sealant on tools or other surfaces can be removed with isopropanol-based cleaners or with burning spirit. Cured sealant can be removed mechanically.
- To improve the mechanical properties of the cured sealant, we recommend inserting a fleece (quality 120 g/m²) before applying the first layer of the uncured liquid sealant and then immediately applying another layer of liquid sealant on the fleece. When laying fleece on larger areas, we recommend that the fleece layers overlap by at least 3-5 cm. This ensures that the entire area is evenly covered. For reinforcement of internal and external angles and at points where installations pass through surfaces, the fleece should be cut to size. These cut pieces of fleece are then laid on the first layer of uncured liquid sealant before applying the fleece to the main surfaces, horizontally and/or vertically.
