Installation Instructions
3
• Avoid adhesive contact with skin. Contact with skin should
be avoided and necessary protective equipment and clothing
should be worn.
• Avoid adhesive contact with eyes. Contact with eyes should
be avoided and necessary protective equipment should be
worn.
• Safeguard against falling by reading ladder manufacturer's
warnings; and by establishing a perimeter warning system
utilizing ropes with ags attached. Surfaces may be slippery
when wet or covered with frost. Always work with a friend
and never work with your back to the roof's edge.
• Care must be taken with fasteners that penetrate the deck to
avoid contact with electrical wiring and plumbing.
• Re-roong over a wet substrate is not a good roong practice.
All wet materials should be removed before proceeding with
the installation of new materials.
• Condensation may occur when applying adhesives at
temperatures below 40º F. especially when there is high
humidity. If droplets of water are discovered, discontinue
installation until weather conditions improve. At that time
reapply a thin coat of adhesive over the old coat of adhesive
and continue installation. Note: All adhesives should be
applied at temperatures above 40º F.
• Allow adhesives to adequately dry to avoid blistering of
the membrane (solvent based adhesives only). Given time,
blistering will likely subside and roof membrane will perform
for the long term. Note: The RoofKit Rubber Roong
Membrane may be applied to wet Latex Bonding Adhesive
for eld applications.
• Positive drainage of at least one-eighth inch (1/8
"
) in twelve
inches (12
"
) is required for warranty coverage.
• Solvent based products such as asphalt roof cements and
coatings will deteriorate the RoofKit Rubber Roong
Membrane and should never be used on this type of roof.
Note: RoofKit adhesives have been tested to ensure
compatibility with the RoofKit Rubber Roong Membrane.
Use of non-RoofKit products will void the membrane warranty.
