The Universal Weatherproof Shield for Glazing and Sanitary.
Kenfix Multipurpose Silicone is a high-performance, acetoxy-cure sealant designed to provide a permanently flexible and watertight seal. Engineered for the diverse Kenyan climate, it offers exceptional resistance to UV radiation, rain, and temperature extremes without cracking, shrinking, or discoloring.
It is the industry standard for sealing glass windows, aluminum frames, and shopfronts. Additionally, its antifungal properties make it ideal for sanitary applications in kitchens and bathrooms, preventing the growth of black mold in humid areas. Whether you are weatherproofing a skyscraper or sealing a shower tray, Kenfix ensures a bond that lasts.
Key Features:
-
Permanently Flexible: Absorbs vibration and expansion without breaking the seal.
-
UV & Weather Resistant: Will not crack or fade under the harsh African sun.
-
Antifungal: Contains fungicides to resist mold growth in damp sanitary areas.
-
Strong Adhesion: Bonds aggressively to glass, aluminum, ceramics, and painted surfaces.

1. Surface Preparation This is the most critical step. Surfaces must be clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, or old sealant.
-
Glass/Metal: Wipe down with a solvent (like White Spirit or Alcohol) and a clean cloth.
2. Nozzle Preparation
-
Cut the tip of the cartridge.
-
Screw on the nozzle.
-
Cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle to the desired bead width (e.g., 5mm).
3. Application
-
Insert cartridge into a standard caulking gun.
-
Apply a continuous bead by pushing the sealant ahead of the nozzle to force it into the joint.
4. Tooling
-
Immediately after application (within 5-10 minutes), smooth the bead using a spatula or a gloved finger dipped in soapy water. This forces the sealant against the joint walls and creates a smooth finish.
5. Limitations
-
Do not use on porous surfaces like concrete, marble, or stone (acids may stain).
-
Do not use on sensitive metals like Lead, Copper, or Zinc (corrosion risk). For these, use a Neutral Cure silicone.
-
Paint: Silicone cannot be painted over. Paint the surface first, then seal.
