Best product for sealing cove joint and control joints In basement

BG57Builder | Posted in General Questions on

My current plan is to use two different products, one for cove and one for control joints. Concern isn’t moisture, more concerned about sealing for gases like radon.

Cove Joint: Sikaflex all purpose Non-Sag Construction sealant
I think this would be best for cove joint because it is no sag and will properly seal the joint.

Control Joint: Sikaflex Crack Flex Sealant
I think this would be best for control joints because it is self leveling and would be better for control joints.

Considering using Non-Sag construction sealant for both

Let me know if those are the best options or if they are for sure not good for this application.

Thank you!
