Fill the gaps around the water and block dirt! For toilets and kitchens [Today's life hack tool]

No matter how much you clean the water, don't you feel like it smells over time? Perhaps the dirt has entered the gap. [See all images] Fill the gaps around the water and block dirt! [Today's life hack tool] for toilets and kitchens So, how about the "Skimafil" series that fills the gaps you care about? If there are no gaps to enter, it seems that odors and dirt can be blocked.

"Toilet skimmer fill" that fills the space between the toilet bowl and the floor

Sharp Chemical's "Toilet Skimmafil" is said to be a substitute that prevents water and urine from entering by simply applying it to the gap between the toilet bowl and the floor. Since the pouch is squeezed by hand, no special tools are required. It's transparent so it doesn't stand out, and I'm happy that it doesn't interfere with the coordination of the toilet. Also, when it hardens, it can be peeled off at any time, so if it gets dirty, it can be replaced, which is convenient for antifouling measures.

"Skimafil around water" that you want to use in the kitchen or bath

There is also "Skimafil around water", which is a W-blended silicone containing antibacterial and antifungal agents, in the gaps around water such as bathtubs, washbasins, tile joints, and sinks. This is a silicone filler that can be used to repair gaps around water. It is not a type that can be peeled off after construction, but adheres firmly, and the color after curing is white and rubbery. In addition to purchasing "Skimafil" individually, you can also purchase "Skimafil in the toilet" and "Skimafil around the water" as a set. The contents are both 100 ml. * Corrected on October 11, 2021: There was an error in how to use "Skimafil around the water". This does not have the property that once cured, it can be peeled off after construction. Some expressions such as sticking and peeling have been corrected. The information has been revised and added.
