Applications & Uses
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Application & Uses
Uses:
- Required over EPDM and Hypalon surfaces, prior to the application of white (or colored) elastomeric roof coatings, to ensure adequate adhesion of the surface coating.
- Can also be used over metal roofs.
Applications:
- Ready to apply.
- Do not heat.
- Do not thin.
- Surface Preparation
- Hypalon roof systems must weather the equivalent of 30 summer days prior to cleaning, priming and coating, to ensure optimum performance.
- All work surfaces should be in sound condition, free of dirt, debris, unattached coatings & membranes, biological growth* (mold, mildew and algae) and other contaminants that may interfere with a satisfactory bond.
- * Use Fortress® QuiKleen™ to eliminate biological growth and remove residual surface oils from the surface.
- Application Directions
Apply to the properly prepared surface at a rate of 1/4 to 1/2 gallon per square using a medium nap roller or airless spray equipment (a 0.015 - 0.021 inch spray tip orifice and a minimum operating pressure of 500 psi are recommended).
Do not puddle or over-apply.
Two coats, each applied at 1/2 the total recommended coverage rate and perpendicular to one another are required to ensure optimum performance.
Re-coat when the primer has dried and can withstand foot traffic (about 1 - 2 hours).
- Application Precautions
- Do not use on tar-based substrates.
- Do not freeze.
- Do not use where this product may come in contact with potable water.
- Do not thin.
- Exterior use only.
- Do not apply if heavy rain or dew is expected or if temperatures are expected to drop below 50°F within 6 hours of application.
- Clean Up
- Immediately rinse/flush equipment and tools with water after use.
- If the material has cured, clean with mineral spirits, exercising all flammable liquid precautions.
- Use waterless hand cleaner on the skin.
