Clear sealants have a habit of not staying clear. They cloud, they bloom, they go slightly milky, and suddenly a joint you wanted invisible is the first thing anyone notices.
CT1 Clear cures properly transparent and stays that way. It's the same TRIBRID® chemistry as the rest of the range, formulated for the jobs where nothing should be visible: glass and glazing, mirror work, shopfitting and display, splashbacks, acrylic and polycarbonate sheet, decorative trim, and any pale or patterned surface where a white or grey bead would look wrong.
It's also the most flexible product in the range, with 500% elongation at break against 385% for the pigmented colours. That's useful on anything moving, whether that's thermal cycling in a glazed unit or vibration in a fitted-out interior.
One thing to be aware of: Clear is intended mainly for internal use, and C-TEC's declaration of performance covers it as an interior façade sealant. Use one of the pigmented colours for external work.
