FAQs

Can I use this on a flat roof where water ponds?

While the paint is waterproof, it is not recommended for areas of standing or ponding water. Ensure the roof has adequate drainage.

How many coats do I need?

Typically, one thick coat is sufficient for instant protection, though two coats are recommended for maximum longevity and durability.

Does it need a primer?

On most standard roof surfaces like bitumen or concrete, no primer is required. However, porous surfaces may benefit from being cleaned thoroughly.

Is it UV resistant?

Yes, the acrylic resin formulation is designed to be UV resistant to prevent degradation and colour fading over time.

Can it be applied in the rain?

While it provides instant rain protection once applied, you should not apply the paint onto a surface that is currently wet or during active rain.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not adhering to the surface

Ensure the surface is completely dry and free from dust, oil, or loose particles before re-applying.

Cracks are wider than 7mm

Fill the void with a compatible external sealant or a patch of roofing membrane before applying the paint over the top.

Slow drying times

The drying time is dependent on ambient temperature and humidity. Avoid applying in temperatures below 5°C or during periods of high humidity.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides instant protection against rain immediately after application
  • High flexibility prevents peeling caused by thermal expansion
  • Compatible with a wide variety of roofing materials
  • Low VOC formula makes it more pleasant to work with

Cons

  • Requires professional-grade preparation for best adhesion
  • Solvent-based nature necessitates proper ventilation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before starting your project, ensure the roof surface is clean, dry, and free of loose debris, moss, or standing water.

  1. Preparation: Remove any flaking material or dirt using a wire brush.
  2. Application: The product is supplied ready-to-use. Apply cold using a stiff brush or a heavy-duty roller. For deep cracks, press the material firmly into the gap to ensure the fibres anchor properly.
  3. Compatibility: This paint adheres well to bitumen, asphalt, concrete, brickwork, metal, and fibreglass. Always perform a small patch test if the substrate is unusual or heavily oxidized.
  4. Care: Clean brushes and tools with white spirit or a suitable solvent cleaner immediately after use to prevent the paint from hardening.
