Things to be aware of:
• The prepared roof surface must be clean, dry, and free from dust and contaminants (bitumen, oil, etc).
• Always countersink the screw holes in the roof deck, and sand the joins, to create a flat surface to apply the One Piece EPDM membrane to. Your EPDM flat roofs will be smooth and smart!• If there are any factory or transit creases in the One Piece membrane, carefully use a heat gun to remove them.
• Always check Contact Bonding Adhesive is touch dry before applying the membrane. This will prevent any gas bubbles from forming underneath.
