All Purpose Waterproof Sealant

DAP Ultra Clear

Ultra Clear
November 14, 2018

When it comes to selecting a tough high-performance, sealant, the choice is clear. Ultra Clear Flexible All Purpose Waterproof Sealant from DAP, a leader in the home improvement and construction products industry, has superior flexibility that won’t crack and clearer-than-silicone finish that stays crystal clear.

“Professionals and do-it-yourselfers have relied on DAP for years to provide superior sealing solutions for all types of interior and exterior projects, and Ultra Clear is no exception,” said Jennifer Johnson, Group Product Director at DAP. “This versatile, crystal clear formula can be used for sealing just about everything from the kitchen sink to gutters and flashing on your roof. It stops leaks instantly with its strong wet surface adhesion while maintaining its crystal clear appearance for a seamless, professional-looking finish.”

Ultra Flexible & Versatile
Developed for a broad range of interior and exterior projects, Ultra Clear stays permanently flexible, even in cold weather, providing a 100 percent waterproof and weatherproof seal to keep out water, air and moisture for years without cracking or breaking down. It has strong adhesion to a wide variety of building materials such as wood, glass, metal, tile, brick and stone, without tearing or pulling away. It can even be applied in low temperatures (20 degrees Fahrenheit) and on wet surfaces to stop leaks instantly and save time.

Ultra Clear
Unlike silicone, Ultra Clear applies crystal clear and stays crystal clear with no hazing or yellowing over time. Once cured, it’s also mold and mildew resistant, which combined with the crystal clear clarity, results in a seamless blend with the surface and a better finished appearance.

Ultra Easy
Ultra Clear is available in a 10.1 fl. oz. cartridge and 5 fl. oz. squeeze tube. The easy-to-use 5.0 fl. oz squeeze tube eliminates the need for a caulk gun and is ideal for smaller jobs, getting into tight spaces or when working on a ladder. Ultra Clear is easy to apply, paintable and water-ready immediately for quicker resistance to water damage and wash-out.  

Ultra Clear can be found at your local home improvement retailer – just look for the blue tip. For more information, visit www.dap.com.
