Sika® Activator-205 from SIKAFLEX is a degreaser and surface activator to reinforce the adhesion of Sikaflex®. This unique, solvent-based clear liquid works in a single, efficient step to both clean and activate non-porous surfaces before the application of Sikaflex adhesives and sealants. It effectively removes trace contaminants such as grease, oil, and fingerprints, which are common causes of sealant failure. More than just a cleaner, it chemically activates the substrate, creating an ideal surface that promotes a powerful, unwavering molecular bond with the sealant. This dual-action process is fundamental for creating waterproof and structurally sound seals that last season after season.
