Maxisil Wet Area Silicone Sealant — 100% Silicone Built for Tile, Not Compromise

The silicone line is the last thing anyone sees on a tile job and the first thing to fail when it's cheap: it strings and slumps as you tool it, it oils out and looks messy, and a few months later it's black with mould. Maxisil Wet Area is the pro answer — a 100% pure acetic-cure silicone engineered specifically for ceramic and porcelain wet areas.

Built-in fungicides give it high mould and mildew resistance right where it matters most — showers, tubs, backsplashes — and it's UV-stable with excellent weathering, so it holds up interior or exterior. The exclusive polymers are what you feel on the tool: it sits up in the joint without slumping, and it's not oily or stringy, so it smooths to a clean, crisp line far more easily than hardware-store caulk. It grabs clean, dry ceramic, glass, acrylic, and aluminium with no primer, and one tube runs about 26–30 linear feet.

Match your silicone to your grout, exactly. Use the Maxisil Color Cross-Over to cross-reference Maxisil's silicone colours to every major grout brand — Mapei, Laticrete, Ardex, Custom Building Products, Bostik, North American Adhesives, and TEC — so the joint matches the grout line instead of settling for "close enough."

One important note: this is an acetic-cure silicone, purpose-built for ceramic and porcelain. For natural stone like marble or granite, use the non-staining Maxisil Natural Stone; for anything under permanent water — pools, spas, fountains — use Maxisil Pool. Tool it to a flawless finish with Maxisil Smoothtex.

Why Tile Pros Choose It

• 100% silicone: No fillers — maximum durability and flexibility
• Made for tile: Acetic cure for ceramic and porcelain wet areas
• Fights mould: Built-in fungicides for showers and wet zones
• Tools clean: Sits up without slumping, not oily or stringy
• Primerless adhesion: Ceramic, glass, acrylic, aluminium
• UV-stable: Interior and exterior; resists weathering and ageing
• Grout-matched colours: A huge range, matched to any grout brand with the Maxisil Color Cross-Over
• The caulk line nobody notices: Which is exactly the point

Pro tip: Mask both edges, lay a smooth bead, tool it once with a Smoothtex-dampened tool before it skins, then pull the tape immediately for a crisp line. Don't use it on natural stone or in a pool — the acetic cure that's perfect for ceramic is the wrong chemistry there.
