Gorilla Glue Sealants and Fillers: The Different Types and Their Uses

Gorilla sealants come in more than one form to help protect the surface of your project from damage caused by water, dust, insects, and much more. 

Gorilla Sealants come in a variety of forms, including:

  • Paste

  • Silicones 

When it comes to fillers, Gorilla offers two types of fillers:

  • For wall repairs
  • Wood fillers 

Each of these types of products has its specific use. So let’s dive in and discover the main features of each type of sealant and filler, what they are best used for, and how to properly apply them for the best results.

Gorilla Glue Sealants: What They Are and How To Use Them 

Maybe you are familiar with sealants or are learning about them now. Sealants help protect a surface. They prevent water or other fluids and substances from passing through and damaging the material. 

Gorilla Glue is known for its quality and long-lasting, durable, and efficient products. 

So let’s have a look at their different types of sealants. 

Gorilla Sealant Paste

Gorilla sealant paste is waterproof and made to seal and patch up cracks and holes, leaving a smooth cover on the surface after application. 

Main features:

  • High strength formula 
  • Flexible rubberized paste 
  • Instant bond 
  • Works on multiple surfaces 
  • Spreadable to fill large gaps 
  • Stops and prevents leaks 
  • Paintable 
  • Shrink resistant 
  • Mildew resistant 
  • Sandable

Gorilla Sealant Paste can seal out:

How to apply Gorilla Sealant Paste:

  1. Clean the surface thoroughly – remove any grease or oil stains, dust, dirt, or any other stains 
  2. Apply the sealant paste to the surface – you can use a trowel or a putty knife 
  3. Apply a layer of sealant to each gap or hole 
  4. Allow the sealant to cure before applying another coat 
  5. The sealant will start drying after about 20 to 30 minutes of application
  6. It needs 24 to 48 hours to fully cure 

How to store Gorilla Sealant Paste:

  • After use, place the lid back on
  • Lightly tap on it to create a tight seal 
  • Store in a dry place at room temperature 

Note: you can wipe away any excess sealant paste with a dry cloth before it starts to dry.
