Dap Inc 18836 Window Door Latex Foam 12 Oz

Product Description

The DAP INC 18836 is a premium latex foam sealant designed to seal gaps and voids around windows and doors in both interior and exterior applications. Sold as Daptex Plus, this 12 oz formula delivers an airtight seal while resisting water and moisture intrusion. The latex-based construction is toolable and paintable after cure, making it suitable for finish work where appearance matters. It is formulated to resist over-expansion, which reduces the risk of distorting window and door frames during installation. Licensed contractors, carpenters, and building envelope specialists are the primary installers.

This sealant is used in residential and light commercial construction and remodeling applications. It is appropriate for sealing around window frames, door frames, and adjacent trim where an airtight and weather-resistant seal is required. The interior and exterior rating makes it suitable for use on rough openings, around pre-hung door units, and in retrofit weatherization projects. Its easy water cleanup simplifies tool maintenance and finishing work on the job site.

Allow the foam to fully cure before painting or trimming excess material.
