Use and Care Manual

Mixing & Application:
MIXING: Coating may settle during storage. Mix well prior to and during use
with a drill and mixing paddle. Use a minimum 3” diameter mixing paddle or
hand mix with a suitable paddle until consistent viscosity is achieved.
APPLICATION: Coating should only be applied to a clean, dry, and fully
prepared roof substrate as described above. It may be applied with a ó” to
1” nap lint-free roller, brush, or commercial airless spray rig. After opening
the container, try to use it up as soon as possible. Keep containers covered
and sealed at all times during use, when practical. If a skin forms in the
container, simply remove the skin, mix the product, and use the rest. It
should be applied in one coat smoothly and evenly over the entire roof
surface, including parapet walls at a minimum 1.5 gallons per 100 square
feet. Dry film thickness (DFT) should be a minium of 22 mils. Coating must
be evenly applied and pin-hole free. On steep-slopes, rough, or aged surfac-
es, additional coats may be required to obtain uniform, consistent thickness.
Ensure coating is fully cured prior to additional coating installations. Cure
times generally require a minimum of 2-6 hours, depending on weather
conditions. Complete additional coats within 48 hours. Waiting longer that
48 hours may require initial coat to have to be washed prior to application of
additional coats. Apply subsequent coats perpendicular in fashion to the
previous coat. Polyurethane foam should be coated within 24 hours of
application. New concrete roofs must be allowed to cure for a minimum 28
days before coating.
Commercial Airless Spray Rig: If spraying, a commercial airless spray rig
capable of producing a minimum of 3500 PSI at the spray gun tip is
required. The pump should have a minimum of 3 gallons per minute output
and be fed by a 5:1 transfer pump to prevent cavitation. Always use compo-
nents rated for pump pressure. Hoses should be Buna-N jacketed for
prevention of moisture contamination. Hoses should have a minimum I.D.
of .” and an adequate working pressure. The spry gun should be high
pressure (5000 PSI) with a reverse-a-clean spray tip, having a minimum
orifice of 0.030 and a 50o fan tip. Do not use hoses that have been used for
acrylics because the liners absorb moisture and initiate the silicone cure
process.
COVERAGE: Approximately 200 to 320 square feet per pail depending on
surface texture and porosity. Dry film thickness (DFT) should be a minimum
of 22 mils.
Clean Up:
Uncured silicone coating can be cleaned or equipment can be
flushed with VM&P Naptha or Mineral Spirits.
Precautions:
• Not recommended for continuous immersion service, for use in cold
storage applications without a vapor retarder, or directly over asphaltic
surfaces without a sealer.
• Silicone coatings are slippery when wet. Exercise caution when walking
on a roof under these conditions.
• Avoid breathing silicone vapors or spray mists. Use an appropriate
Uses:
Coating can be used on many different
commercial or residential roof substrates to
reflect the sun’s heat and UV rays, as well as to
help seal and protect the surface. It works well
on low slope roofs and is suitable for pitched
roofs. Acceptable roof types include: • Aged
asphalt roofs, including Built-Up Roofing
(BUR) and Modified Bitumen (MB) • Aged
single-ply roofs, including EPDM, TPO, PVC,
and Hypalon® roofs • Spray Polyurethane
Foam (SPF) roofs, Metal roofs • Concrete roofs
• Recoating previously coated roofs • RV,
trailer, and mobile home roofs. Not
recommended over shingles of any kind.

MESA/NIOSH approved respirator when exposure can exceed recommend-
ed PEL. This product Is not recommended for interior use. Additional care
must be taken to prevent rooftop HVAC equipment from introducing
silicone vapors into interior areas during application.
• Keep cleaning solvents away from all sources of heat, sparks, flame,
lighted smoking materials, or any other ignition source. Pumping
equipment should be grounded to avoid accidental ignition due to static
sparks.
• It is not recommended to store this material at temperatures exceeding
100°F (38°C). For maximum shelf life, store between 40°F and 70° F (4°C
and 21°C). Higher temperatures will reduce shelf lite.
• Remove any skin prior to mixing the material. Once container is opened,
all product should be used. Container cannot be resealed without product
skinning or curing Inside container. Always keep covered and protected
from the elements. When transporting this product, ensure that the lid is
tight and the containers secured.
WARNING! Harmful if swallowed. Suspected of damaging fertility or the
unborn child. May cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life. KEEP
OUT OF REACH OF CHIDREN. PREVENTION: Obtain special instructions
before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read and
understood. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink or
smoke when using this product. Avoid release to the environment. Use
personal protective equipment as required. Rinse mouth. RESPONSE: IF
SWALLOWED: Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel
unwell. IF EXPOSED OR CONCERNED: Get medical advice/attention.
DISPOSAL: Dispose of contents/container in accordance with existing
federal, state, and local environmental control laws. NSF Protocol P151:
Number of coats: 1-3. Maximum field use, dry film thickness (mils): 30
(maximum 15 per coat). Recoat cure time/Temperature: 24 hours at 100o F
(38°C). Final cure time / temperature: 48 hours at 100°F (38°C). PRECAU-
TIONS: Use extreme caution when applying and walking on silicone coated
surfaces. Silicone coated surfaces are extremely slippery and can create a
fall hazard resulting in death or serious injury. Keep away from food. Not
recommended for application at temperatures below 35°F (2°C) or if rain is
expected in less than 15 minutes of application. Lower temperatures and/or-
less humidity will typically result in slower cure times. When transporting,
make sure the pail is secured and the lid is tight to prevent spills. Store in a
cool, dry, shaded location. Ensure lid completely sealed. SHELF LIFE:
Unopened, 12 months from date of manufacture when stored in a cool, dry,
and shaded location. Store locked up. CLEAN-UP: Clean-up of tools and
spray equipment containing uncured material may be accomplished by
cleaning or flushing with mineral spirits. SPRAY EQUIPMENT: This product
cures by reacting with moisture and should not be left in spray guns, pump
equipment, and hoses for prolonged periods unless equipment contains
moisture lock hoses, fittings, and seals. Equipment without these compo-
nents will transmit sufficient moisture vapor to gradually form cured materi-
al on hose walls and at unsealed connections potentially causing an increase
in operating pressure and material flow restriction.
