How to use a roofing felt adhesive

How to use a roofing felt adhesive

  1. Surface Preparation

    Ensure that the surface where the adhesive will be applied is clean, dry, and free from any debris, dust, or loose materials. Repair any existing damage or cracks on the surface before proceeding.

  2. Application

    Open the container of the product and prepare the necessary tools, such as a sealant gun, brush or trowel, for application. Start by applying a consistent layer of adhesive onto the surface, covering the area where the roofing felt will be placed. Make sure to apply adhesive to the edges and corners as well to ensure a secure bond.

  3. Roofing Felt Installation

    Carefully place the roofing felt onto the adhesive-coated surface. Press the felt firmly and evenly, ensuring it adheres well to the adhesive. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles to create a flat and uniform surface.

  4. Additional Adhesive Application

    If needed, apply an additional layer of adhesive on top of the roofing felt to enhance the bond and seal any potential gaps or seams. Use a brush or trowel to spread the adhesive evenly and ensure full coverage.

  5. Curing Time

    Allow the product sufficient time to cure and bond the roofing felt to the surface. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the recommended curing time. Avoid any foot traffic or disturbances during this period to ensure proper bonding.

  6. Finishing

    Once the adhesive has cured, trim any excess roofing felt using a utility knife or scissors to achieve a clean and neat appearance. Inspect the installation for any areas that may require additional adhesive or touch-ups, especially around edges, corners, and seams.

Tip: To store Adiseal once opened, leave about 1cm worth of product out of the nozzle and store the tube upright in a cool dry place. Adiseal requires moisture for it to cure. The exposed part out of the nozzle will cure creating a cap. To re-use Adiseal, pull the cured part out or cut the nozzle until the uncured part is reached.
