Thank you for posting your feedback. We're sorry to see your low star review on DAP Kwik Seal Plus. As this is a water-based/acrylic-latex formula, the sole drying mechanism is the evaporation of water. Dry time can be significantly impacted by cool or humid application conditions, moisture in/on the application surface or by thick (deep) applications of the sealant. Application outside of these conditions will lead to long dry times and slow performance development. Because you did not provide any details regarding your application, such as application surfaces, surface preparation, bead size, humidity or any information regarding your application technique, it is difficult to provide you with a more detailed reply or any specific product usage guidance in this format. DAP also offers a line of fast cure sealants, such as DAP AMP Advanced Modified Polymer Waterproof Kitchen, Bath and Plumbing Sealant or DAP Silicone Max 100% Premium Kitchen and Bath Silicone Sealants for use under more difficult application conditions or for projects that require faster "return to service times". Should you have any additional questions, wish to discuss our recommendation or your project in more detail, please feel free to contact DAP’s Technical Customer Service Department at 888-327-8477. Since you have posted similar commentary on multiple products, we have replied to those posts with similar responses as well.
