Rubber Membrane Application for Roof Protection Amid Covid-19 Pandemic…!!

 EPDM Liquid Rubber is the only true EPDM product in liquid form. This coating has all the features of traditional roofing membranes and yet in liquid form it provides numerous other benefits also. If you are looking for a roofing option that provides protection against leaks and holds up extremely well against all weather conditions than EPDM Liquid Rubber is your best option.

Covid-19 Safety Alert” Both CDC and WHO recommends people to stay home from work if they are not feeling well and the roofing contractor you hire must also follow the guidelines as well. Stay put, stay safe.”

 It is important to understand few things about the application of EPDM Liquid Rubber.

Primer

In most cases EPDM Liquid Rubber requires only one coat without the need for a primer, which results in cost savings in-terms of labor and material costs. The following substrates require only one coat of EPDM Liquid Rubber:

• EPDM Membrane
• Weathered Fiberglass and Steel Siding
• Weathered Corrugated Metal and Standing Seam Roofs
• Weathered Polycarbonate Plastic, Vinyl, and PVC
• Foam Pipe Insulation
• Cast Concrete

A Note on Mixing

When mixing the catalyst into liquid rubber try to follow all the guideline as provided by the manufacturer to get the best results out of your Liquid Rubber application. If you try to cut down the mixing time to accelerate the process you will only make the application subpar.

Rubber Membrane Application

Liquid Rubber is designed to withstand extreme temperatures both cryogenic temperatures and extreme steam heat. Before liquid rubber roof coating application you have to thoroughly clean the roof surface. If the roof membrane is old and cleaning is not practical,a liquid rubber surface conditioner is recommended to ensure proper adhesion.

Covid-19 Pandemic needs attention too, but don’t let it drive you away from getting Your Roof Protected with Elastomeric Roof Coatings…!!

EPDM coatings always strive to give you good roof repairing solutions and satisfy the needs of its customers. Through research developments and technological improvements, EPDM coatings are now designed in such a way to withstand the toughest climatic conditions and are compatible with the majority of roofs its residential roof, commercial roofs or RV roofs.

The main advantage of EPDM roof coatings is that they are durable, economical, performance proven and relatively very easy to use. EPDM roof coating products are one component product, which means they can be easily applied directly from the container as there is no need to mix any other component to them. The products are application friendly and also non-flammable.

Covid-19 Alert:Quoted “The Center for Disease Control recommends keeping a minimum distance of six feet between yourself and another person when out in public or while working on the job.

The coating in general we are talking about is Elastomeric roof coatings which is applied in viscous form. It is very elastic in nature and can withstand heat in the summer and cold in winter without becoming brittle or even cracking. Elastomeric coatings composition contain polymeric materials, such as acrylic, and a white pigment, such as titanium dioxide, to make them opaque and reflective. An elastomeric coating is normally applied thicker than paint.

An elastomeric roof coating is one that greatly resembles rubber once it’s applied. One of the main advantages of this particular form of coating is that it can be applied to so many different kinds of roofs. Elastomeric roof coatings are especially good for roofs made from modified bitumen or a single-ply application of PVC or TPO.

Also keen research from top roofers also acknowledge the water proofing characteristics of Elastomeric roof coatings. Elastomeric roof coatings can be applied to virtually any roof including asphalt built-up roofing, concrete roofing, metal roofing, modified bitumen roofing, polyurethane foam roofing and single ply roofing.
