PART 2-EXECUTION

2.01 CAUTIONSup.gif

Urethane coatings typically contain organic solvents and as such can be toxic and flammable. Work only in fully ventilated areas. Do not smoke when using these products or use near sparks, heat, or any open flames. Read and follow the Tough Stuff Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). All waste materials including empty pails must be removed from the site by the applicator and taken to a landfill authorized to receive such materials.

2.02 MIXINGup.gif

Urethanes and primers will require proper mixing before application as follows:

    PRODUCT MIX TIME
    AC5000, AC5500, AC5600, AC5900, PR3800, PR3900, UR1600, UR1700 None
    UR2100, UR2650 Four minutes (two part)
    UP70 Four minute (two part - five minute digest after mixing)


2.03 SUBSTRATE PREPARATIONup.gif

A. . CLEANING:

Concrete surfaces must be dry, sound, fully cured and free of efflorescence or any contaminants that may interfere with adhesion. All loose concrete, laitance, sharp edges, oil, unusual stains, or glaze must be sand blasted, water blasted, or acid etched to insure adhesion. Remove dirt, and foreign material detrimental to adhesion or application of roofing. Use CL404 cleaner diluted 20:1 with water. On heavy dirt or grease, apply full strength. Broom scrub the soap solution on the membrane to loosen oxidation and dirt and rinse with a minimum 2500 psi water-blaster. If there are algae growing on the surface, the cleaning must include bleach in the washing of the substrate.

2.04 PRIMINGup.gif

  1. Apply first layer of UP70 at 200 square feet/gallon leaving no puddles.
  2. Reprime areas that do not have a uniform gloss appearance.


2.05 LINING OF CRACKSup.gif

Cracks that are larger than 1/16” wide should be routed, filled in with the powder additive mastic (see Section 2.07) and lined with the base coat and polyester fabric. Cracks smaller than 1/16” wide shall be repaired with the base coat and polyester liner.

  1. Once the substrate has been cleaned and primed, apply a base coat of material over the seam area several inches wider than the polyester liner. The coating shall be installed at a rate of between 1.5-2.0 gallons/square (24-32 wet mils thickness).
  2. Roll the 6” wide polyester liner into the wet substrate and brush it into the coating. Feather out the outside edges.
  3. Install an additional layer of coating over the installed polyester liner at an application rate of 1.5-2.0 gallons/square (24-32 wet mils thickness). Allow the repaired seams to cure prior to the application of the base coat for the field of the roof.


2.06 FLASHINGS - POLYESTER REINFORCEDup.gif

    Apply polyester reinforcement on areas of significant movement.

  1. Apply base coat to all areas at a rate of 1.5-2.0 gallons/square and shall extend 2” beyond where the fabric will be installed. Set FA200 polyester liner in wet base coat.
  2. Install an additional application of base coat at a rate of 1.5-2.0 gallons/square over the installed liner extending a minimum of 2” beyond the fabric and feather out the edges of the coating.

2.07 FLASHINGS - MASTIC MIXTUREup.gif

Round projections, machine legs, sign posts, guide wire straps, inside and outside corners, etc. can be flashed using the D200 powder additive mixed into the urethane to create a mastic mixture. The mastic mixture is also used to create cants and as a joint filler or use AC5500 Mastic. Consult Coatings International for recommendations.

Mastic Mixing Ratios:

USAGE RATIO OF D200 TO URETHANE
Cants 50%
Brushable 40%
Light brush / spray 30%

  1. Trowel the mastic around the base of the penetration or at the juncture of roof to wall so that the mixture is 3" wide and a minimum uniform 1/4" depth at the center that tapers to 40 mils at the edge.

  2. Cover the installed mastic mixture with an application of base coat installed at a rate of 1.5 gallons/100 square feet.


2.08 FIELD LINER (AS SPECIFIED)up.gif

    A field liner is typically installed over the entire smooth surfaced roof. Consult the Warranty/Applications section 3.01 of this document for specific requirement or contact Coatings International.

  1. Apply the base coat at a rate of 1.0-1.5 gallons/square using notched squeegees or the applicator broom for the specified base coat product.
  2. Immediately install the polyester liner into the base coat.
  3. Install an additional application of the base coat at a rate of 1.0 gallon/square on top of the polyester liner using notched squeegees and back-rolling to insure proper sealing and even coverage of the coating.

2.09 APPLICATION OF FINISH COAT(S)up.gif

  1. Pour out coating across the top of the roof and spread out with the notched squeegee applicator tool. Back roll same area immediately with short nap enamel rollers perpendicular to the squeegee pattern.
  2. Pour out finish coat(s) across the roof perpendicular to the previous coat and spread out with the notched squeegee applicator tool. Back roll same area immediately after short nap enamel rollers perpendicular to the squeegee pattern.


2.10 DRAINSup.gif

  1. Remove the existing clamping ring collar and clean the bowl and collar. If there is existing roofing material in the drain, cut and remove all materials to eliminate restriction of water flow to the drains and to provide a clean substrate. If necessary, repair the substrate to provide a smooth transition to the roof drains.
  2. On lined areas extend the liner membrane and coating into the drain bowl and replace clamping ring.


2.11 INSTALLATION OF WALKWAYSup.gif

Apply additional layer(s) of the urethane at 1.5 gallons/square with optional aggregate. Aggregate can be added to the mixture or broadcasted into the wet material.
