STEP 1

Unroll the FlexiProof EPDM membrane over the substrate so that the sheet is in the desired position.

Carefully open the tub of deck adhesive and stir.

Using a medium pile roller on a pole apply the deck adhesive evenly to the main area of roof deck paying attention to leave a 150 mm strip on the roof edge to be bonded with contact adhesive.

STEP 2

Once adhesive coverage is achieved progressively place the membrane into the wet adhesive and broom into place paying attention to expel all trapped air.

STEP 3

Carefully open the tub of contact adhesive and stir, pour the appropriate amount of adhesive into the roller tray.

Using a contact adhesive roller apply the contact adhesive in a 150 mm band to the roof perimeter, on the back of the FlexiProof EPDM membrane and up the wall.

STEP 4

Once both surfaces coated with contact adhesive are touch dry, progressively bring the two surfaces together starting from the bottom and working up.

Ensure the contact adhesive is applied using a thin coat and allowed to fully tack off to prevent gas bubbles forming under the membrane sheet.
