Caulk Gun from Fix-A-Floor

There are a few different types of caulking guns, with two distinct varieties supplied by us here at Fix-A-Floor, each of which offers a range of uses and suitability for specific projects.
Our range of caulking guns feature various benefits:

• Easy to use: Gently apply pressure on the trigger to dispense adhesive, ideal for filling small gaps and grout lines for flooring and wall tiles.
• Compatibility: The sealant gun is compatible with every floor type and is most commonly used for small to medium-sized DIY projects.
• Versatile: We also supply a Large Contractors Caulking Gun, excellent for the large tubes of Fix-A-Floor, which are three times the size of a standard adhesive tube.
• Mess-free: The standard 10:1 thrust ratio caulk gun is dripless, stopping the flow of adhesive after the trigger is released.
• Better control: Use a large caulking gun for adhesive tubes to apply sealant smoothly with better control.
• Time-saving: It secures loose tiles with little hassle and is considered one of the best caulking guns for tile repair.

Want to ensure your tiles and flooring are secure during your next project? Take note of the following caulking gun tips to achieve ideal results:

• Be aware that each pull of the trigger exerts 10 pounds of output force, efficient for big projects.
• Apply a firm yet gentle trigger pull to ensure a uniform application of sealant.
• Where you have a smaller hole, it’s important to apply slower, gentler pressure to avoid adhesive leaking from the rear of the tubes.

Tips to avoid common issues

• Prevent adhesive overflow by applying gentle pressure.
• Cut the cartridge’s tip to the largest size applicable to the gap you are filling.
• Maintain the same pressure consistency with each application.

Importance of sealants

Sealants are incredibly versatile and can be used for a variety of tasks, including fixing loose or hollow floor tiles of varying materials. There are other sealants you can use for closing gaps around windows and doors and even stopping pipe leaks. The lifetime and durability of projects can be increased by properly applying sealants with a sealant gun, which protects from air, water, physical damage and even pests. Fix-A-Floor’s adhesive is easy to apply and forms a long-lasting bond by expanding and contracting with surfaces.

Safety considerations

A common enquiry we receive is ‘Are caulk guns safe to use?’ While our caulking guns are incredibly safe and our adhesive is non-toxic, non-flammable and eco-friendly, we still recommend some safety precautions when operating them.

• Wear safety gloves and exercise caution.
• Don’t apply too much force, even if the sealant is not coming out.
