harming joint substrates and adjacent nonporous surfaces in any way, and formulated to
promote optimum adhesion of sealants to joint substrates.
C. Masking Tape: Nonstaining, nonabsorbent material compatible with joint sealants and surfaces
adjacent to joints.
PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.1 EXAMINATION
A. Examine joints indicated to receive acoustical joint sealants, with Installer present, for
compliance with requirements for joint configuration, installation tolerances, and other
conditions affecting performance of the Work.
B. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.
3.2 PREPARATION
A. Surface Cleaning of Joints: Clean out joints immediately before installing acoustical joint
sealants to comply with joint-sealant manufacturer's written instructions.
B. Joint Priming: Prime joint substrates where recommended by acoustical-joint-sealant
manufacturer. Apply primer to comply with joint-sealant manufacturer's written instructions.
Confine primers to areas of joint-sealant bond; do not allow spillage or migration onto adjoining
surfaces.
C. Masking Tape: Use masking tape where required to prevent contact of sealant or primer with
adjoining surfaces that otherwise would be permanently stained or damaged by such contact or
by cleaning methods required to remove sealant smears. Remove tape immediately after
tooling without disturbing joint seal.
3.3 INSTALLATION OF ACOUSTICAL JOINT SEALANTS
A. Comply with acoustical joint-sealant manufacturer's written installation instructions unless more
stringent requirements apply.
B. STC-Rated Assemblies: Seal construction at perimeters, behind control joints, and at openings
and penetrations with a continuous bead of acoustical joint sealant. Install acoustical joint
sealants at both faces of partitions, at perimeters, and through penetrations. Comply with
ASTM C 919, ASTM C 1193, and manufacturer's written recommendations for closing off
sound-flanking paths around or through assemblies, including sealing partitions to underside of
floor slabs above acoustical ceilings.
3.4 CLEANING
A. Clean off excess sealant or sealant smears adjacent to joints as the Work progresses by
methods and with cleaning materials approved in writing by manufacturers of acoustical joint
sealants and of products in which joints occur.

3.5 PROTECTION
A. Protect acoustical joint sealants during and after curing period from contact with contaminating
substances and from damage resulting from construction operations or other causes so
sealants are without deterioration or damage at time of Substantial Completion. If, despite such
protection, damage or deterioration occurs, cut out, remove, and repair damaged or
deteriorated acoustical joint sealants immediately so installations with repaired areas are
indistinguishable from original work.
