AcryPair™ Roof Repair Coating

1 of 1 products in this brand
AcryPair™ is a revolutionary waterproofing coating that is uniquely designed to be applied to wet or damp roofs where curing will proceed even underwater! Unlike quick patch materials that have a short life expectancy, AcryPair™ is guaranteed to last for five years! AcryPair™ will adhere to all common roofing substrates and is ideal for either instant roof repairs or as a permanent roof coating.

  • May be used on vertical, pitched, and horizontal

Applications & Uses

Application Method
Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Application

Although only minimal preparation is required, all loose material, stones, and grease should be removed, together with as much dust, rust, and standing water as is reasonably possible. Bird excrement, algae, and slime mold should be scrubbed off of the surface for best adhesion results. All holes, gaps, and joints should be bridged with fabric sandwiched between sufficient AcryPair™ to provide thorough wetting of the roof surface and thorough saturation of the fabric. This is best accomplished by “stippling in” with a brush. AcryPair™ may be applied in 2 coats of 20 wet mils thickness each over single-ply, capsheet, modified, metal, transite, or concrete after the above preparation is complete. The 1st coat may be applied directly over any fresh, wet repairs as curing will proceed regardless of thickness although slower. The 2nd coat may be applied as soon as the 1st coat is sufficiently dry to walk on (normally 2-3 days at 65°F). Care should be taken not to disturb any patches or pretreatments as they may still be wet.

AcryPair™ may be applied over asphalt or coal tar BUR after the preparation described above has been completed. The 1st coat should be applied at 66 square feet per gallon; fabric laid into it and thoroughly “stippled in” by brush with a 2nd coat at 66 square feet per gallon to remove all tents and voids. The fabric should be overlapped by at least 2 inches and thoroughly saturated with AcryPair™ so that no dry spots remain.

Limitations

Not recommended in areas of high chemical attack (around stacks, etc.). AcryPair™ does contain solvent so H.V.A.C. equipment should be prevented from drawing air from the rooftop during application.

Coverage

Approx 30 to 40 square feet per gallon, depending upon substrate.
