Window Flashing General Instructions
Installations methods approved by the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) are
acceptable for TYPAR products and system warrantee.
Flashing products should always be installed on a dry surface that is free of dirt and debris. Wipe
surfaces to remove moisture, grease and other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion.
Avoid placing fasteners where the Typar flashing will be installed; however, the fasteners can be
installed over the flashing.
Most circumstances do not require you to prime the surface before installing Typar Flashing. However
some adverse weather conditions, extreme temperatures, or specialty installations such as concrete,
masonry, or fiber-face gypsum board may require a primer such as 3M or Super 77 to obtain optimal
adhesion. Install the primer according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
The use of a heat gun will assist in adhesion during colder conditions.
Do not expose the flashing to direct sunlight for longer than recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not apply the flashing to a flexible vinyl surface, although rigid PVC is acceptable. Please check with
the window manufacturer for compliance with rubberized asphalt flashing products.
