PERMAGRIP™

PERMAGRIP™ Roof Leak Repair is a transparent clear, elastomeric adhesive waterproofing bonding primer and wet area coating and fabric saturant. A waterborne, latex based, unique resin combination formula that contains no fillers or pigments. It is designed to effectively bond to the surface and adhere polyester or most other fabric tapes. PERMAGRIP™ strengthens the surface to which it is applied and will bond, seal and waterproof most any roofing surface, and is excellent for sealing seams in conjunction with fabric tape. The extreme high resin content provides excellent adhesion to the surface then forming a tight bond to the fabric tape and finish coat. The bond that is formed between PERMAGRIP™ and the finish coat eliminates any possibility of moisture under the finish coat thus extending the coatings life considerably.
Excellent for use on wet areas for waterproofing under tiles, in kitchens, bathrooms and balconies under tiles or flooring. For a High Solids Silicone Elastomeric Roof Coating check out our Best Silicone Roof Coating .

Specifically designed for bonding to metal but has excellent adhesion on most any surface including: weathered wood, shakes, plywood, clapboard, primed metal, galvanized, aluminum, tin, copper, asbestos, asphalt, urethane, polyester, styrofoam, adobe, brick, stucco, concrete, clay, masonry, slate, slab, built-up-roofs, modified bitumen membranes, rolled roofing, mineral surfaced roofing and various other substrates.
For use on residential, commercial and industrial applications.

SURFACE PREPARATION:
For proper adhesion it is essential that the surface is prepared properly. Clean Exterior Surfaces by thoroughly pressure washing with a water and chlorine solution using at least 1500 P.S.I. to remove any previous coatings, dirt, grease, and other foreign materials, especially mold, mildew and algae. PERMAGRIP™ will resist mildew growth, but will not kill mildew already on the surface. Rinse thoroughly. Remove loose paint and powdery substances. Patch any large holes, cracks, seams, imperfections, etc., with PERMAPATCH™, Waterproofing Caulk & Sealant.

Metal:
Clean surface of all grease, oil and foreign matter before priming. Rusted metal and uncoated metal must be primed with METAL-PRIME™, a Red Iron Oxide Primer Sealer. Use a degreaser on galvanized or coated metals which have oils or surface treatments. Check PERMAGRIP™ adhesion on galvanized or coated metal by applying to a small area and evaluating after 48 hours. If lack of adhesion is present after evaluating, metal must be lightly scuffed without penetrating the coated finish or galvanizing.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
Stir well before using. Do not thin, use product as is. Do not apply when temperatures are below 45 degrees Fahrenheit or when humidity is very high. Do not apply when coating will be subjected to rain or heavy dew before it has had enough time to dry (approx. 1 to 2 hours). Drying time will vary depending on temperature, humidity and location. Apply using brush, roller or spray. Spread primer uniformly. Spread Rate will vary depending on substrate. Apply a coat between 10 to 16 mils wet film thickness. Wait at least 4 hours before applying a compatible paint or coating.
Airless Sprayers: Use at least a 1 gallon per minute piston type airless sprayer with a maximum tip size of .021. Remove all line filters and gun filters before spraying.

CLEAN UP:
Clean all spills and tools immediately after use while coating is wet with warm soapy water.
