REFLECTIVE ROOF COATINGS

MAIN BENIFITS

INSULATES Outperforms 7 of fiberglass insulation. Keeps interiors


cooler and more
comfortable. CUTS COST of air conditioning by up to
40%. Increase in storage capacity
of fuel storage tanks.

INHIBITS RUST Prevents perforation and damage due to corrosion.


PROTECTS - against UV, chemical damage. Is not affected by high winds
or rain. Resists

Mildew and algee.

REDUCES THERMAL SHOCK - by lowering roof temperatures


by as
much as 60 degrees. This translates to less expansion/contraction
and less stress and
wear on fasteners and connections.

WATERPROOF
surfaces.

Stops leaks and prevents moisture absorption on all

FIRE RETARDANT Zero flame spread.


IMPROVES APPEARANCE - with an extremely durable

elastomeric finish
that will not crack, chip,or peel. Can be tinted any color.
Cuts your maintenance cost.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE No asbestos, lead, vinyl acetate,


plastics,

oils, odors or gases. Wash with water.

ENCAPSULATES - asbestos surfaces and existing hazardous coatings.

FRIGI-TECH TOP COAT II
FRIGI-TECH PRIMER
POLYESTER MEMBRANE

TOP COAT
An

Acrylic white coating with nearly


400% elongation. Ideal for metal, builtup roofs with good drainage, shingles
and all types of walls. Produces a tough
washable coat that reduces dirt pick-up
and stays cool with ceramic ingredient.

TOP COAT II
All

of the qualities of TOP COAT


original with the added ability to resist
standing water conditions. To be used
on all surfaces in area that experience
high humidity. Can reduce heat gain as
efficiently as 7 inches of conventional
insulation

PRIMER
100%

acrylic, Elastomeric roof


mastic formulated to exhibit hiadhesion and flexibility. For use
over most types of roof and wall
surfaces. Recommended for use
on all foam roofs.

POLYESTER MEMBRANE
A

spun bound and woven 100%


polyester fabric, which is
embedded into the basecoat to
prevent extreme movement by
greatly increasing the tensile
strength of the system.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

VISUAL INSPECTION and REPLACEMENT of


DAMAGED BUILDING MATERIALS
The substrate to be coated must be in SOUND
condition. Physically inspect the surface area for
missing or damaged building materials. Replace
and/or repair all damaged areas back to sound
and solid condition.
Check for loose or missing fasteners (screws)
and tighten or replace them.
Inspect for any existing leaks and be sure to
repair leaks prior to the application of coating.
Make sure roof is adequately vented. Check with
a roofing contractor if necessary.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#:2 PRESSURE
CLEANING
High Pressure Blast entire
roof surface with at least
1500 P.S.I. of pressure
using a water and chlorine
solution (1 quart chlorine to
5 gallons of water).
Thoroughly remove all dirt,
oil, grease, residues, mold,
mildew, algae and any other
surface contaminants.
When roof is completely
cleaned, rinse with water
only. Let roof surface dry
before continuing.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

First Spot Prime all


rusted areas and let dry
at least 12 hours before
applying the second coat
of rust inhibitor to the
effected area. Apply the
rust inhibitor at a rate of
125-150 square feet per
gallon covering the
entire rusted surface.
Wet film thickness of 1012 mils wet resulting in
dry film thickness of 7-9
mils. Let the rust
inhibitor dry at least 12
hours before continuing

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#:4 CAULKING
SCREWS
Patch and Caulk all
screws or fastener
heads, cracks, crevices,
fractures, holes, valleys,
vents, voids, etc., with a
Water Proofing caulk.
Use a trowel or stiff
brush to apply. Multiple
coats are better than
one thick coat if
possible.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#: 5 TAPING
SEAMS
Tape all visible seams,
large cracks and fractures
prone to water intrusion
on roof surface. Apply a
liberal coat of PRIMER at
10-12 mils wet film
thickness, directly to the
affected area using brush,
roller or airless spray and
lay the POLYESTER
MEMBRANE directly
into the WET PRIMER.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#:6 PRIME
COAT
Apply PRIMER
using 1- brush, 2- at
least a one inch nap
roller, or 3- at least a
1 gallon per minute,
3,000 P.S.I. piston
type airless sprayer
with a minimum tip
size of .027 tip.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

Apply the PRIMER at


a rate of 125-150
square feet per gallon
covering the entire
roof surface. Wet film
thickness of 10-12
mils wet resulting in
dry film thickness of
7-9 mils. Let PRIMER
dry at least 12 hours
before continuing.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#: 7 FIRST COAT of


FINISH/TOP COAT
When Spraying or Rolling
TOP COAT the first coat of
TOP COAT must be applied
perpendicular to the coat of
PRIMER to achieve a
checkerboard pattern. Apply
the first coat of TOP COAT at
a rate of 100-125 square feet
per gallon per coat over the
entire roof surface. Wet film
thickness of 12-15 mils
resulting in dry film thickness
of 8-10 mils.

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#: 8 SECOND
COAT of FINISH/TOP
COAT
Apply the second coat
of TOP COAT at a rate
of 100-125 square feet
per gallon per coat over
the entire roof surface.
Wet film thickness of
12-15 mils resulting in
dry film thickness of 810 mils. Let dry at least
24 hours before your
Final Evaluation

METAL ROOF
APPLICATION

STEP#: 9 FINAL EVALUATION


A detailed evaluation of the completed job will
determine the quality of the workmanship and
whether strict application specifications have
been met. Be sure to check that all roof areas
are completely coated and sealed under
permanently placed roof items such as roof
top air conditioning units. Divide roof into
1,000 square feet sections and randomly
check one spot in each section for a dry film
thickness of at least 20 mils. If specifications
have not been met, determine how much
material will be required to meet
specifications and recoat.
