Deck Caulking on Leisure Boats and Yachts

For timber and teak decks that need to be completely watertight and weather-resistant, Sika has developed Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO. This extremely easy-to-use, Hi-UV-resistant, one component polyurethane deck-caulking compound can, once cured, be flush-sanded with the deck to supply a beautifully neat, clean finish.
Sika's Marine Teak Deck Maintenance System preserves and cares for new and weathered teakwood as well as for all other kinds of wood applied above the waterline. Sikaflex®-290 DC PRO and Sikaflex®-298 are major elements of Sika's Totally Glued Teak Decking System.
