A useful insight intoapplications of EPDM Liquid Rubber


Water damage is something like a nightmare and a serious threat to your home and its underlying structure. When water is leaking from the roof, the damage it causes is catastrophic. The method to prevent water leakage is fairly easy and it entails applying EPDM Liquid Rubber.


What can be coated?

EPDM Liquid Rubber can be applied to different surfaces, to name a few:
·         Rubber , Fiberglass, Primed wood, Acrylic, Sponge rubber
·         Weathered aluminum, Galvanized and coated steel, PVC

Benefits of using EPDM Liquid Rubber

·         Corrosive elements can quickly damage many types of metals.EPDMLiquid Rubberhelps to protect from corrosion including in salt water environments.
·         The roofs have to deal withMother Nature’s destructive forces like UV light, wind, rain, sleet, snow, freezing temperatures. EPDMLiquid Rubber holds up extremely well-through these harsh weather conditions.
·         EPDMLiquid Rubber is the only roofing material that waterproofs directly after application although full curing of the coating may take some time. EPDMLiquid Rubber is also not affected by water ponding.

Doyou need a primer?

Most roof coating products require a primer, but EPDMLiquid Rubber is a one coat application system. However, in some case you do need a primer e.g., ProFlex primer, which is compatible to use with EPDMLiquid Rubber.

Considerations with moist environments

EPDM Liquid Rubber is designed to be extremely waterproof, however any moisture within the base substrate must be allowed to evaporate, or it will cause problems. It is applicable to wood, concrete, and other porous materials. Nonporous materials like metal can simply be let to dry of.

To Conclude:

EPDMLiquid Rubber not only waterproofs the roof, it blocks UV-rays and is not affected by ponding water. Investing in the right roofing materials, hiring a quality roofing contractor and doing regular maintenance using EPDMLiquid Rubber coatings can prevent unnecessary expenses and help to extend the lifespan of your roofing system.
