- Application Instruction
Surface Preparation
Surfaces to be coated with PolyBrite 95.1 must be properly prepared. All surfaces must be clean dry and free of loose particles.
Application
- Stir well prior to application. Caution: Due to the combustible nature of this product, do not use an electric mixer.
- PolyBrite 95.1 is recommended to be applied with high-pressure sprayer for best appearance and coverage. It may also be applied by roller or brush applications.
Application Equipment
This product may be sprayed, brushed, or rolled. Due to the high viscosity of the material, a high-pressure airless paint pump capable of producing 3500 PSI should be used. The pump should have a minimum of 3 gallons per minute output. Always use components rated for pump pressure. Hoses should be BUNA-N jacketed for prevention of moisture contamination. Hoses should have a minimum I.D. of 3 ⁄4" and an adequate working pressure. The spray gun should be high pressure (5000 PSI) with reverse-a-clean spray tip, having a minimum orifice of .030 and a 50° fan tip.
Do not use those that has been used for Acrylics or other waterborne coatings as the liner absorbs moisture and initiates the silicone cure process.
Cleaning
Cleanup of spray equipment containing uncured material may be accomplished by flushing with VM&P Naphtha or mineral spirits. PolyBrite 95.1 cures by reacting with moisture and should not be left in spray guns, pump equipment and hoses for prolonged periods unless equipment contains moisture lock hoses, fittings and seals. Equipment without these components will transmit sufficient moisture vapor to gradually form cured material on hose walls and at unsealed connections potentially causing an increase in operating pressure and material flow restriction.

Safety & Health
- Ponding Water
The chemistry of silicone, which Polyglass Silicone roof coatings are manufactured with, is not adversely affected by ponding water or prolonged rain exposure. Please be advised that good roofing practices, Building Codes and The National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) consider ponding water on any roof undesirable and recommend that all roof systems be designed and built to ensure positive drainage (See the NRCA Roofing and Waterproofing Manual and any applicable Code Ordinances).
- Warning
- Odors and Mists - Avoid breathing silicone odors and spray mists. Use an appropriate MESA/NIOSH approved respirator when exposure can exceed recommended PEL. Additional care must be taken to prevent roof top HVAC equipment from introducing silicone odors into interior areas during application.
- Waste Disposal - Empty containers must be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
- For Professional Use Only - Keep out of the reach of children
- This product is not recommended for interior use.
- Installers should exercise caution during spray processes to avoid falls caused by stepping into slippery coating. Installers should read and understand all technical and informational literature on this product, including the SDS, prior to use of the product.
