This article has been supplied.

An Acrylic sealant is a sealant with typically water-based ingredients made from acrylic resins, used primarily for filling small cracks and joins, and for adhering cornices to walls and ceilings.  In order to have the satisfaction of doing a job that will last, do it right the first time, by making the correct purchasing decisions and knowing the differences in grades or the quality of acrylic sealants on the market.

You may need to pay for quality

Most often, but certainly not always – the better-quality ingredients used in a product, the higher the price maybe. Not all acrylic sealants are equal: some have undergone technical research and laboratory testing, to produce a product that will perform optimally, in varying conditions, surfaces and applications

Can Acrylic sealants be painted? Yes.

There are a variety of paintable acrylic sealants in the market place, and they can be painted over with solvent based paints as well as water based paints (i.e.: acrylic latex). They are generally available in white, grey and beech and the six wood colours of the Den Braven Woodflex range.

Good colour stability is achieved with high grade sealants like Den Braven Acryl W:  They are smooth, pure white, with no discolouration and have good adhesion properties.
