LATASIL is a professional-grade, 100% silicone sealant engineered to be used in conjunction with LATICRETE tile systems. Traditional cement-based grouts are rigid and will crack if used in corners or at changes of plane where two surfaces meet. LATASIL remains permanently flexible, allowing it to absorb the inevitable expansion, contraction, and vibration in a building without failing. This makes it the only correct choice for sealing shower corners, bathtub perimeters, and floor-to-wall transitions. In addition to its flexibility, LATASIL is fully waterproof and contains anti-microbial protection, which resists the growth of mold and mildew in damp environments. It is specifically color-matched to LATICRETE grouts, ensuring the transition looks clean and intentional rather than like an afterthought. It is resistant to harsh cleaning chemicals and will not lose its adhesion over time like cheaper acrylic-based 'caulks.' For any tile installation, the use of a 100% silicone sealant at movement joints is an industry standard for long-term maintenance and performance.
