PREPARATION
Surface
preparation is critical and must be strictly observed. Surfaces must be
free from grease, grime, dust, dirt, moss, lichen, loose and flaking paint
and surface oxidation.
Note:
If the roof is used for the collection of rainwater disconnect the pipe
to the storage unit before preparation begins and leave disconnected until
after the first substantial rainfall following the application of the Wapol
Roof Coat System.
Clean
the roof with a high-pressure water cleaner working from the ridge down
to remove all moss, lichen or other contaminants. Re-bed and re-point the
ridge caps where necessary and replace any cracked or broken tiles. If
moss or mould is present it should be treated with Wapol FW5 Fungicide
Wash. (Refer to FW5 data sheet for procedure).
