Tremco Tremflex 834 is a single-component, pure acrylic latex sealant for general purpose interior and exterior caulking, supplied in a White 10.1 oz (300 mL) cartridge. It is tack-free in 15 minutes and ready to paint in 30 to 45 minutes with a latex or oil-based paint.
Tremco Tremflex 834 is a single-component, pure acrylic latex sealant intended to give a fast-setting, pliable seal with minimal shrinkage. It is used for general purpose interior and exterior caulking, as a back-bedding glazing compound, and as an acoustical seal in the construction of interior walls, ceilings and floors, particularly in through-penetrations and joints in smoke- and sound-rated partitions. It is easy gunning and non-staining, suitable for vinyl, aluminum and wood siding and for bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and it contains an antifungal additive. It is tack-free in 15 minutes and ready to paint in 30 to 45 minutes with a latex or oil-based paint. Do not apply it to damp or contaminated surfaces and keep the product from freezing. Paintability does not imply adhesion to and compatibility with all paints; Tremco refers to Technical Bulletin No. S-09-05.
