PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Safe-T-Plex is a single part, acrylic latex, elastomeric roof coating designed for high pressure airless spray, roller or brush application over aluminum, galvanized steel, polyurethane foam, old asphalt roofing, cured concrete, shingles and plywood sheathing. Because Safe-T-Plex is made from only the highest quality, 100% acrylic resin, it can be used on flat roofing with zero slope.

Safe-T-Plex is available in reflective white only. The product is made to reflect 92% of heat and uv rays from the sun in order to reduce heat stress to the roof structure, and air conditioning costs. To accomplish this, the coating is made with large concentrations of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. To overcome the whitening effects of these ingredients, you would need massive amounts of colourants, so much that it would harm the overall performance of the coating.

Safe-T-Plex is guaranteed against leaks for 10 years if applied according to our directions. It will last 20 years or more.

BUYER BEWARE - PLEASE READ

When comparing elastomeric roof coating products, be aware that many manufacturers do not recommend application of their product on roof surfaces without at least a 2% slope as they may not remain watertight in ponding situations. These products are made with polymers that are inferior to the those used in the manufacture of Safe-T-Plex®. Safe-T-Plex® is manufactured using only premium quality, 100% acrylic polymer, providing superior, long life performance on flat roof surface applications.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surface temperature must be at least 10º C ( 50º F). Remove loose rust, dirt, oily residues with high pressure wash. Safe-T-Plex can be applied directly to metal roofing that has tightly adhering rust, without the need for a primer. High pressure wash all rusty surfaces and allow to dry. Problem seams and holes must be sealed using our Tape-Kote Seam Tape. (Safe-T-Plex forms a watertight adhesive bond to this tape.) Apply Tape-Kote Seam Tape around all objects that protrude through the roof (air conditioners, vents, breather pipes, etc.). Tape-Kote Seam Tape can be applied over runs of leaking screws or roofing nails.

APPLICATION

Do not apply Safe-T-Plex if rain or frost appears imminent during the next 24 hours.

Safe-T-Plex is ready to use. Do not thin. Spray: Airless Sprayer 3000 p.s.i., 2 g.p.m. capacity , #631 tip. Brush: Good quality synthetic bristle brush. Roller: Long nap, Safe-T-Plex roller. Apply 2 coats allowing approx. 3 hrs. cure time (tack free) between coats. Make sure all tape is well covered with Safe-T-Plex Roof Coating.
