Modified Bitumen Recoating System
With Conklin’s
innovative roof recoating systems, you can actually extend the life of
your existing EPDM or Modified Bitumen roofing system and save on
energy costs at the same time. These systems are an effective and
economical alternative to a complete tear off or re-roofing project.
The EPDM/Modified Bitumen Recoating
Systems consist of a three step process: WAC II roofing surface
cleaner, Conklin Tack Coat surface primer and Conklin’s proven Rapid
Roof® III reflective top coat. Used together as a system, these
products allow you to fix leaks in your existing EPDM and Modified
Bitumen roofs instead of replacing them. In fact, Conklin coating
systems are sustainable indefinitely with periodic recoats.
The light colored coating of Rapid Roof III
top coat reflects 84 percent of the sun’s energy compared to only five to seven percent on an EPDM or
Modified Bitumen dark colored roof. The Conklin EPDM and Modified Bitumen
Recoating Systems extend the life of your roof by shielding it from
those harmful solar rays resulting in less shrinkage, reduced ultraviolet
degradation and thus fewer leaks. The high reflectivity also lowers the
temperature of your roof by as much as 30-50 degrees, which means less energy consumption cooling your building!
WAC II
Conklin’s WAC II high-strength roofing surface cleaner is an excellent
product for most roof cleaning applications. WAC II effectively
prepares aged EPDM and Modified Bitumen membranes prior to applying the
Conklin EPDM or Modified Bitumen Recoating Systems.
Tack Coat
Conklin Tack Coat
promotes adhesion between properly cleaned EPDM and Modified Bitumen
roofing membranes and Conklin’s Rapid Roof III 100 percent acrylic
elastomeric roof coating. When used on aged EPDM and Modified Bitumen
roofs cleaned with WAC II roof cleaner, Tack Coat effectively prepares
the membrane to receive the highly reflective, energy-saving finish
coat.
Rapid Roof III
Rapid Roof III, the third generation of Conklin's original roof coating
system, is designed to be lightweight, flexible, seamless and
weatherproof. Comprised of a fire classified light tan base coat and a
highly reflective standard white top coat, it has a reflective value of
84 percent. Rapid Roof III cures to a tack-free, dirt-resistant finish.
In addition to white, Rapid Roof III is also available in light gray,
light blue and light tan.
