- Recommended Uses
Evercaulk FG is intended as a flashing material for most substrates and as a sealer for fasteners and seams in metal roofing applications only used in conjunction with fabric.
- Surface Preparation
General
Surfaces to be coated should be dry, free of dust, dirt, oil, loose granules, gravel, peeling coating and other foreign matter.
- Application
This product may be rolled on a clean, dry surface. For details see Equipment Recommendations at the end of this sheet. Apply as a flashing for most substrates. Material can be used in combination with fabric in most flashing applications. For fasteners the fastener must be tight. Apply enough material to completely cover the fastener and form a circle of material a minimum of 1 inch around the fastener.
Application Properties
Yield (1 gal to 100 sq ft) 10 dry mils Dry Time (75° F 50% humidity) 4 hours Recoat window >6 hrs Complete Cure 24 hours Coverage Rate
Apply Evercaulk FG at the rate of 1.5 gallons per 100 sq. ft. (24 wet mils). Surface texture and wind will affect applied mil thickness. (1gallon will typically encapsulate between 300 and 350 fasteners)
Limitations
Surface must be clean and dry. Application is not recommended where ponded water is present. Do not apply over wet substrates or when inclement weather is imminent. Complete cure of Evercaulk Brush requires complete evaporation of water. Cool temperatures and high humidity retard cure. In addition, this product is not recommended for use without a vapor barrier in cryogenic tank or cold storage roofing applications. It is not intended for use as a thermal barrier.

Safety & Health
- Environmental Conditions
This product cures by water evaporation only. Product must not be applied when the ambient temperature is below 50°F or if there is any possibility it could fall below 32°F within 24 hours of application. Application is not recommended if rain or dew is likely to occur before product dries. In high humidity conditions late afternoon applications should be avoided as overnight dew formation on uncured surface can cause coating wash-off.
Ponded Water
- Everest Systems warranties do not cover damage due to ponding water.
- The National Roofing Contractors Association considers ponding water on any roof unacceptable. (See the NRCA Roofing and Waterproofing Manual).
