Benefits for Tilers & Tradespeople
The OTTOSEAL® S 100 offers maximum dimensional stability. Its excellent standing strength ensures clean applications, even on vertical joints, without the risk of run-off. It is also easy to process, allowing for quick and precise smoothing and modelling, making it ideal for efficient use. The sealant is fungicidal and bacteriostatic, providing long-lasting hygiene while reducing maintenance intervals. Additionally, it is resistant to weather, UV light, and ageing, making it perfect for use in outdoor areas. The sealant offers excellent adhesion to ceramic surfaces, making it ideal for sealing tiles, ceramics, and acrylic. Its matte finish allows for discreet and harmonious integration into modern bathroom and kitchen designs.
Typical Areas of Use
The OTTOSEAL® S 100 is particularly suited for expansion and connection joints in bathrooms, showers, and WCs, as well as for sealing around sinks, worktops, and washbasins in kitchens. It is also highly effective for sealing joints between glass, ceramic, tiles, and acrylic baths. Additionally, it is ideal for joints in glass blocks, profile glass, or window connections. With its matte finish, it seamlessly blends into modern building concepts, providing a subtle and durable sealing solution.
Practical Application Tips
Before application, ensure that all surfaces are clean, dry, and load-bearing. To achieve the desired matte effect, ensure that joints in colours such as Bahama Beige are only smoothed once with a smoothing tool. Avoid using the product on bitumen-based or plasticizer-releasing materials, and always check for compatibility beforehand. To prevent mould formation, it is recommended to completely remove old sealants and, if necessary, treat the joints with an anti-mould spray before resealing.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions about OTTOSEAL® S 100
Is OTTOSEAL® S 100 suitable for natural stone?
No. Due to the acetate-crosslinking reaction, it may cause edge discolouration. For natural stone, we recommend a specifically tailored natural stone silicone.
Can OTTOSEAL® S 100 be used outdoors?
Yes. It is highly suitable for outdoor use, as it is UV-resistant and weather- and ageing-resistant.
How long does curing take?
After about 10 minutes, a skin will form, and full curing will occur at a rate of around 2–3 mm per day (depending on temperature and humidity).
How can I achieve a smooth surface when smoothing?
Use a smoothing tool. For matte colours like Bahama Beige, the joint should be smoothed only once to achieve the desired matte effect.
Is OTTOSEAL® S 100 suitable for plastic profiles?
Yes, hard PVC (e.g. Vinnolit) is compatible with OTTOSEAL® S 100. For other plastics, a compatibility test should be carried out.
