Insulating Roof Paint
Metal Roof Application-pg 2

STEP#: 6 ( If Applicable)
CLEAR COAT SKYLIGHTS
Be sure skylight surface is clean and free of all moisture. Apply using brush, roller or spray. Spread PERMACLEAR liberally over the skylights at a rate of 200-225 square feet per gallon per coat. Feather in excess puddles and runs before coating is dry. Wait at least 4 hours before applying a second coat of PERMACLEAR at a rate of 225-250 square feet per gallon.

STEP#:7 PRIME COAT Apply PRIMER (BOND-IT) 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 .019 tip. When Spraying or Rolling BOND IT, it must be applied perpendicular to the slope of the roof; example: If the slope of the roof runs from North to South then the coating will be applied from East to West. This will be the start of a checkerboard application pattern. Apply the BOND IT at a rate of 200-250 square feet per gallon covering the entire roof surface. Let BOND IT dry at least 12 hours before continuing.
STEP#: 8 FIRST COAT of FINISH/TOP COAT Be sure entire surface is clean and free of all moisture. Be sure the entire area to be coated is primed, if not, then spot prime as needed. Apply HY-TECH Roof Coating 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, ( note larger size tip is needed ). Remove tip and gun filters before starting. When Spraying or Rolling HY-TECH Roof Coating, the first coat must be applied perpendicular to the coat of BOND IT Primer to achieve a checkerboard pattern. Apply the first coat of HY-TECH Roof Coating 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. Let dry at least 12 hours before continuing.
STEP#: 9 SECOND COAT of FINISH/TOP COAT Be sure entire surface is clean and free of all moisture. Be sure the entire roof area is completely coated, if not, then spot coat. Apply HY-TECH Roof Coating 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. Remove tip and gun filters before starting. When Spraying or Rolling HY-TECH Roof Coating, the second coat of HY-TECH Roof Coating must be applied perpendicular to the first coat of HY-TECH Roof Coating completing the checkerboard pattern.
Apply the second coat of HY-TECH Roof Coating 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. Let dry at least 24 hours before your Final Evaluation.

STEP#: 10 FINAL EVALUATION
At this time a detailed evaluation of the completed job will determine the quality of the workmanship and whether strict application specifications have been met. The entire roof surface must be completely coated & sealed. 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. Remember to touch up the penetration made by the dry film thickness gauge. If specifications have not been met, determine how much material will be required to meet specifications and recoat. Check dry film thickness again until specifications have been met.
