Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Applications
Surfaces must be dry, free of dirt, loose debris, oils, grease or any substance that could interfere with adhesion. Surface must remain at least 5°F above dew point during the application and curing process. Refer to the POLAPRIME Data Sheet for information regarding selection of appropriate primer, if necessary. Polaroof RAC and OZ Catalyst are combined to become Polaroof RACOZ, this is achieved by mixing a one quart unit of OZ Catalyst into a five gallon pail of Polaroof RAC. Mixing will require the use of a power stirrer and should proceed for at least 3 minutes to achieve complete dispersion. Reinforcing over seams is achieved by embedding ROOFAB into a fresh coat of POLAROOF RACOZ applied at 15 to 25 mils wet thickness. The fabric is then brushed thoroughly to squeeze the POLAROOF RAC-OZ upwards to remove all voids, fishmouths and dry spots. A second coat is then applied to seal the surface of the fabric. Bolt-heads and complex penetrations should be sealed with sufficient POLAROOF RAC-OZ modified with K CATALYST. As soon as the modified POLAROOF RAC-OZ has dried, it may be coated with additional POLAROOF RAC-OZ. Application over all types of singleply roofs requires the preparation detailed above, including reinforcement of seams. Some types of rubber will swell slightly immediately upon application. This is normal, the adhesion process is complete when the original dimensions have returned. New urethane foam should receive 2 coats of POLAROOF RAC-OZ at 15 mils wet thickness per coat. Sudden precipitation will not wash POLAROOF RAC-OZ off when wet or newly applied, but will produce a mottled, dull appearance that is not detrimental to overall appearance. POLAROOF RAC-OZ should never be applied to a wet or damp surface, or pinholes may result.
- Maintenance
Damaged areas may be repaired by cleaning surface and application of POLAROOF RAC-OZ as described in application section.
