Should you use an asphalt primer and then apply Peel and Seal over it. Also should you apply Peel and Seal to the smooth or rough side of OSB roofing.

I did not use any primer and where I placed it was pretty smooth, once the sun hit it, we had great seal. I would suggest a fairly clean surface though.

I used a spray-on asphalt primer on the areas of metal flashing and aged peel and seal that I was covering up/repairing. Probably not necessary when applying to new OSB. I'd rather apply this product to the smooth side of OSB for a more positive grip and smoother finish surface.

Typically, an asphalt primer is used before applying another liquid type roof coating, so I would think that it would not be necessary under the Peel and Seal product. Typically the rough, or textured, side of OSB sheathing is installed up, giving workers better footing while working on a roof. As long as it is clean of dirt, dust, grease, moisture etc., the Peel and Seal should adhere just fine.

use primer before installing liquid roof. Next day put a thin coat of liquid roof, them wait 2 or 3 days before putting the second coat and them you are set for 10 years or more.

Yes, I've haven't had any problems using it directly over epoxy primer within the recoat window but in the U-Pol Raptor TDS (Custom Coat is the same thing) it recommends waiting for the epoxy to fully cured and then sanding or scuffing.

For small areas you can use a brush. For larger areas it is most easily applied with a sprayer. In either case do not over apply it. It is best to apply multiple thin coats. Smooth out any puddles that may occur during application. Also do not want aerate the Clear-seal while applying it.

Tip--Put your choice of rubber dressing (Armor All, 303, etc.) on the rubber window strips before applying any wax, sealant, etc. The sealant you slop onto the rubber won't stick as much and be easier to wipe off.

If you already polished then you could put this on top for protection. Personally I do a round of Opti Seal and then the spray wax.

If it's a rubber roof you might want to check with the "Liquid Roof" folks before you try it. I had to use the primer on mine because of the rubber roof manufacture. Ours is on a Fleetwood coach.

I'd use the primer for it before doing so, but I see no reason it can't be after that, as thats what I did. But you'd also want to "level" the joints in the existing tile before you do, so its not as simple as peel and stick if you want it right.

Preparation was the key to success. I used a long handle bristle brush, used a "Simple Green" solution to remove the old paint, then rinsed the roof and allowed to dry, thoroughly. Worked well for me.Be careful in warm weather as the expoxy will cure rather fast. Hint- mix small batches when it's hot.Great product.

To be on the safe side, I would clean the sufface with TSP, and then use the primer. I would also use a hard bristle brush during cleaning, to remove any loose sealants, or coatings. Be sure to caulk around any roof vents before application.Hope this helps.

In addition to asphalt shingles, I have used it to spot treat brick walls, stone walls, a stone patio, an asphalt driveway and wood landscaping timber. In each case, the mold and algae browned and died. Use on the shingles has been tremendous with my roof which now looks like new. Probably because of the extraordinary dampness and shade for some of the other applications, the green did recur. I am very careful about using it near vegetation and try to apply sparingly to keep runoff to a minimum. Even on the shingles, I would limit application to areas affected. So far I have not had any plants go south. I would be careful on walkways as by nature it results in a very slippery coating.

if your goal is to prevent or stop minor roof leaks, your clean and dry statements should suffice. i recently used "flex seal brite" and cannot recommend it to you. it took a long time to set up and reacted poorly when exposed to water. much success, bh, ph. d.

Dicor does not recommend removing old sealant. I have been doing it wrong for years. Go to Dicor web site and look at this in detail video. It's great! Just type this in or copy and paste:http://dicorproducts.com/catalog/roof-products/replace/epdm-lap-sealants/#installation

I used this product around my chimmney and other areas of roof flashing with great results so far. You might want to sand {Scuff} the metal and wipe clean with 50/50 alcohol & water first. I still used an outdoor caulking along the edges first. Hope this helps.

Hi Katrina, This is a great product and should work to seal up a tail light but you will need to lightly sand the surface of the plastic lens with 220 grit sandpaper so it will have something to grab and not peel off once it is dry. I would use painters tape to protect the lens and just leave the damaged area exposed so that you don't get the sealant on the rest of the lens. If you mask it off before you lightly sand it this will work great. I hope this was helpful. Dave J.

You would need the primer if you have a Fleetwood model or if someone put a 3rd party coating over your original rubber or metal roofThank youKellie

For best results, you should use a topcoat. I used two coats of Polyacrylic topcoat by General Finishes.
