RUBBERALL® User Cautions and Warnings!

Read Caution labels on all adhesive, primer and sealant containers. These materials contain petroleum distillates and are extremely flammable. Care must be taken to avoid open flames. Do not smoke when using these products. Product labels, Material Safety Data Sheet and Technical Information Sheet contain information for proper use of these products and should be consulted.

Adhesives should be used in a well-ventilated area. Avoid inhalation of fumes. Care should be taken to insure fumes do not enter building through windows or fresh-air-intake ventilation fans.

Avoid adhesive contact with eyes. Safety glasses should be worn. If adhesive comes in contact with eyes, flush for 15 minutes and call physician.

Avoid adhesive contact with skin. Chemically resistant gloves are required. If adhesive comes in contact with skin, wash with soap and water.

Safeguard against falling by reading ladder manufacturer's warnings and by establishing a perimeter warning system by using ropes with flags attached. Surfaces can be slippery when wet or covered with frost. Always work with a friend and never work with your back to the roof's edge. Know and follow OSHA fall protection guidelines.

Care must be taken with fasteners that penetrate a deck to avoid contact with plumbing or electric wiring.

Reroofing over a wet substrate is not good roofing practice. All wet material should be removed.

Condensation may occur when applying Bonding Adhesive at temperatures below 40 degrees when there is high humidity. If droplets of water are noted, discontinue installation until weather conditions improve. At that time reapply a thin coat of adhesive over the old coat of adhesive and continue installation.

Allow adhesives to adequately dry to avoid blistering of membrane. Given time blistering will likely go down and roof will perform for the long term.

Positive drainage of at least one-eighth inch (1/8") in twelve inches (12") is required for warranty coverage.

Petroleum products such as roof cements and coatings will deteriorate RUBBERALL® membrane and should never be used on a RUBBERALL® membrane roof.

Warranty terms and conditions are on the final pages of the booklet. Note: RUBBERALL® adhesives have been tested to insure compatibility with RUBBERALL® membrane. Use of non-RUBBERALL® products will void the extended membrane warranty.
