FAQs

How long does Gorilla Waterproof Coat & Seal take to dry?

A skin will typically form within a few hours, but it usually takes 24-48 hours for the product to fully cure, depending on temperature, humidity, and film thickness. Avoid water exposure during this time.

Can I paint over Gorilla Waterproof Coat & Seal?

Info needed: [Does the product accept paint? If so, what type?]. The product is black and designed to provide a durable finish on its own.

What surfaces can I use this product on?

It is suitable for roofing, gutters, conservatories, drainage pipes, windows, caravans, and external chimneys. It adheres well to many common building materials when properly prepared.

Is this product safe for areas that come into contact with drinking water?

No, Gorilla Waterproof Coat & Seal is not recommended for applications involving potable (drinking) water.

How do I clean up spills or excess product?

While wet, spills can be cleaned with mineral spirits or paint thinner. Once cured, the product is very difficult to remove and may require mechanical means or strong solvents.

Do I need to prime the surface before applying?

For most applications, a clean, dry surface is sufficient. For unusually porous or extremely smooth surfaces, you may wish to test a small area or consult product specifications for primer recommendations, but it's generally not required.

Troubleshooting

The seal is not holding or a new leak appears.

Ensure the application surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Any dirt, oil, or loose debris can prevent proper adhesion. Apply a second coat after the first has fully cured for enhanced protection.

Product is too thick to apply easily, or doesn't self-level well.

Ensure the product is stored and used at room temperature. Cold temperatures can increase viscosity. Do not attempt to thin the product with solvents, as this may compromise its effectiveness.

Uneven finish or bubbling after application.

Small bubbles typically dissipate as the product self-levels. For a more uniform finish on larger areas, use a roller for consistent thickness. Ensure the surface is free of excessive moisture or trapped air before application.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly effective for sealing active leaks and preventing future ones.
  • Flexible coating maintains integrity even with substrate movement.
  • Simple and versatile application methods (brush, roll, pour).
  • Self-leveling properties create a smooth, consistent finish.
  • Provides a strong, durable, and watertight seal on various surfaces.

Cons

  • Requires a clean and dry surface for optimal adhesion and performance.
  • Drying and curing times must be observed before exposure to water or heavy use.
  • Black color may not be suitable for all aesthetic requirements.
  • Can be challenging to remove once fully cured.
  • Application temperature sensitivity may limit use in extreme weather conditions.

Setup & Application

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the application area is clean, dry, and free from dirt, grease, oil, and loose debris. For best results, lightly abrade smooth surfaces to improve adhesion.
  2. Temperature: Apply when temperatures are between `5°C` and `40°C` (`41°F` and `104°F`).
  3. Mix (Optional): While often self-mixing, a gentle stir can ensure consistency, especially if the product has been stored for a while.
  4. Apply: Brush, roll, or pour the product directly onto the area to be sealed. For larger areas or consistent coverage, rolling is recommended. For small cracks or hard-to-reach areas, brushing or pouring directly is effective. The self-levelling formula will do most of the work.
  5. Curing: Allow adequate time for the product to cure. A skin will form within a few hours, but full cure can take 24-48 hours depending on temperature and humidity. Avoid exposing the sealed area to heavy rain or standing water until fully cured.

Compatibility

Gorilla Waterproof Coat & Seal is compatible with a wide range of materials commonly found in:

  • Roofing
  • Gutters
  • Conservatories
  • Drainage Pipes
  • Windows

Care & Storage

  • Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • Clean tools immediately after use with mineral spirits or paint thinner before the product cures.
