Features

  • Simple application, easy to use and fast cure UV Resistant and foot trafficable
  • Fast Cure – Quick access for trades Permanently flexible – total adhesion Immediate Resistance to rain damage

Preparation

Surface of SILCOR membrane must be clean and dry.

Application

Mix each component separately with a clean stirrer blade, then combine together in a clean dry container and mix thoroughly with high speed dissolver for 5 minutes prior to application. Mix ratio Resin: Hardener is 5:1 by weight.
Apply in two coats by brush or roller – apply second coat in cross direction to the first to give a uniform finish. For spraying use a single wet-on-wet spray application.
Do not use mixed product once it has become thick and stringy, it should be discarded.
Do NOT add solvent.
