- Uses
Duro-Shield Silicone Roof Coating can be used on the following roof substrates, after surface preparations have been completed:
- Single-ply membranes:
- Aged Duro-Last® PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
- Other aged PVCs
- EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer)
- TPO (thermoplastic polyolefin)
- Mineral and granule-surfaced built up (BUR) and modified bitumen
- Smooth-surfaced built up (BUR) and modified bitumen
- Spray-applied polyurethane foam
- Aged galvanized metal
- Concrete
- Wood
- Installation
- General
- Only apply product when the surface and ambient temperatures are between 35ºF (1°C) and 100ºF (37°C). Do not apply product when the ambient temperature is within 5º F of the dew point. Product should be stored between 50º F (10° C) and 80º F (26° C) for 24 hours prior to application.
- Do not apply to concrete roofs that may be subject to vapor drive from conditioned spaces below.
- Do not apply when rain, cold or nightfall are imminent.
- Thinning the product is not allowed.
- Open and partially full containers will skin over quickly. If this occurs, remove the skin and continue using the remaining product.
- Use a brush, roller (1-inch nap, min.), or airless sprayer to apply. Best results are obtained when using an airless sprayer. Care should be taken when using an airless sprayer to apply DuroShield silicone products. Wind-blown over-spray may damage property adjacent to the project site.
- Substrate Preparation
- Repair the substrate by following Substrate Preparation instructions within the Duro-Shield Silicone Roof Coating Installation Guide.
- Cleaning Procedures
- Apply to surfaces which are clean, dry and free of oil, mildew, grease or any other contaminants. Follow Cleaning Procedures within the Duro-Shield Silicone Roof Coating Installation Guide.
- Seam Treatment
- Repair all horizontal and vertical seams by following Seam Treatment instructions within the Duro-Shield Silicone Roof Coating Installation Guide.
- Priming
- Follow Priming instructions within the DuroShield Silicone Roof Coating Installation Guide.
- Coating
- Stir until an even consistency is achieved. A slow-speed drill with mixer attachment is recommended.
- 5, 10, 15 and 20-year material warranties are available. Follow Coating instructions within the Duro-Shield Silicone Roof Coating Installation Guide for specific application guidelines regarding each warranty.
- Cleanup
Uncured product may be removed with virgin mineral spirits. Do not use water. Application equipment should be cleaned immediately after use with virgin mineral spirits. Do not use water.
