- Application & Uses
Uses:
- Substrate adhesive for built-up roofing systems (asphalt).
- Interply adhesive for modified bitumen sheets.
- Flood coat for receiving gravel.
Applications:
- Ready to apply.
- Do not heat.
- Do not thin.
- Surface Preparation
- All work surfaces must be clean, dry, free of dirt, dust, debris, oils, loose and/or embedded gravel, un-adhered coatings, deteriorated membranes, and other contaminants that may result in a surface that is not sound.
- All necessary repairs must be completed before application to ensure optimum performance.
- All surfaces must be free of frost, snow and ice.
- Application Directions
BUR:
- Apply at a rate of approximately 2 - 4 gallons per square, depending on the surface irregularities.
- Roll out and embed the first ply.
- Apply an additional layer or adhesive at an interply rate of 1 - 2 gallons per square, followed by another ply sheet.
- Repeat, until the desired number of plies is achieved.
- Topcoat at a rate of 2 gallons per square if a glaze coat is desired; or use 4 - 6 gallons per square to apply gravel or mineral surfacing.
Modified Bitumen:
- Apply to the prepared surface at a rate of approximately 1 - 2 gallons per square, depending on the surface irregularities.
- Roll out and embed the modified bitumen sheet.
- Broom into place, assuring that the membrane conforms to the surface and that no bridging or air pockets exist.
- Open time is 30 - 45 minutes; dry time is 6 - 8 hours to touch.
