Can new built-up roofs be coated with aluminum coatings sooner than the recommended 90 to 180 days weathering period?

If an aluminum surface roof coating must be applied sooner to a new built-up roof, a water based emulsion coating should be used instead of a solvent-based asphalt coating. An emulsion coating will provide a firm base on which to apply the aluminum coating 5 to 10 days after the emulsion has cured.

How do I clean up a spilled Black Jack product?

Consult SDS data sheets for the specific products.

What effect does ponded water have on aluminum roof coatings?

Aluminum coatings do not perform well on roofs that pond water. Dirt can accumulate in depressions and inhibit the reflectance of the coating. If an aluminum coating is under water for a prolonged period of time, the water may work its way under the coating causing it to peel. Positive drainage is needed to flush away surface dirt and retain the reflective properties of the aluminum coating.

What factors can reduce the reflectivity and long-term durability of aluminum coatings?
