To me is the best silicone ever. Smooth response and last long.

It’s not very self leveling so I don’t really like it.

Whenever I’ve tried flowable silicone, they always fall out or break. Any suggestions?

Clean the response grove. Make sure there’s no bubbles.

Is there some magic amount of time you need to wait for the silicone to dry? I typically wait around 12-18 hours.

24 minimum for heavy use. 48 if you want go crazy. I do testing after 12 but not a lot of play.

To me red one is the best ever. You just have to use it in the right way.
P.S. It’s ready in 20 minutes at 20° Celsius
