I have just assembled a greenhouse with an aluminum frame.
I have placed it on a prepared stone-paved ground slab (granite stone).
It stands very straight and level on the slabs.
To further prevent ants and water from coming in from outside, I am considering sealing between the aluminum base and the stone slabs, like silicone, stone glue or something similar.
Do you think this is a good or bad idea?
What should I use to seal it to withstand weather, temperature, and UV?
Seal from inside the greenhouse or from the outside (or both sides)?
combined, half has a seating area for a glass of wine before dinner and the other half is (or will be) full of pots and boxes, as well as a shelf with odlingar.
I prefer not to have a large foam seal but envision a thin seal between the stone and the base, preferably black and on both the inside and outside.
Here's what it says about stone adhesive PU700:
1-component moisture-curing foam adhesive based on polyurethane, for horizontal bonding of stone materials.
- Resistant to fresh, salt, and lime water, withstands weak acids and corrosive mixtures
- Also bonds wood/wood, wood/concrete, and metal and aluminum to absorbent surfaces
What does PU700 look like? Large ugly foam or like a string of adhesive?
