What Is High Performance?
2024-03-25

What is high performance?We talk a lot about high performance around here, but what the heck makes a sealant or caulk high performance?A sealant or caulk should be flexible, elastic, and adhesive. Many sealants are flexible, adhesive, or elastic. It is the combination of all three together that lead Read More
