PRODUCT DATA SHEET
LIQUID RUBBER DACLAR™
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is a modified elastomeric asphalt emulsion specifically
formulated as a spray applied roof coating. Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is
part of a dual component system that is applied using a specifically designed
spray applicator. The technology advances in Liquid Rubber Daclar™ give
a quick setting coating membrane that is solvent-free and has excellent strength,
elasticity and adhesion.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is an environmentally friendly roofing product
which can be applied indoors and outdoors with no specialized protective equipment.

USES
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is used as a waterproofing membrane for roof protection.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ can be applied over a wide range of substrates
including existing BUR, polyethylene, membranes and shingles.
APPLICATION
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is applied as a dual component system using a
specially designed spray system. Both components of this system are water
based and environmentally friendly. Applied at ambient temperature (above
5°C) Liquid Rubber Daclar™ sets almost instantly, forming a seamless
flexible membrane.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is a safe alternative to conventional hot-applied
or solvent based roofing systems.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ should be applied to a dry surface which is free
of dirt, debris, oil or grease. The product sets up rapidly, however it is
not recommended to apply any roofing product if heavy rains are imminent.
For best results apply in thin coats. With joints or cracks in the surface
it is recommended that fabric reinforcing be used. In some cases initial ‘flood
coating’ with one component may be recommended. See application manual
or consult with your Liquid Rubber Engineered Coatings representative for
further details.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is to be applied between 0.3-0.6 m2/litre (15-30
ft2/gal) to produce a 40 mil protective membrane to 0.175 m2/litre (7.5 ft2/gal)
to produce a 160 mil membrane. Liquid Rubber Daclar™ will be dry to
the touch in one minute @20°C and is largely cured within 48 hrs. Final
cured properties may, however, not be realized for 28 days.
Typically an applicator crew can spray greater than 6,000 ft2 (550 m2) per
day. Protection board or insulation may be applied to the membrane surface
after an initial set time of 20 minutes.
LIMITATIONS
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ is mildly alkaline. When applying this product
observe normal safety precautions, wear gloves, eye protection and other suitable
protective equipment.
For further information please consult the product MSDS.
Liquid Rubber Daclar™ should not be applied when the ambient temperature
is below 5°C. The uncured membrane may be damaged if frozen. Do not apply
to wet or frozen surfaces or directly before a rain.
Some surface base coat materials such as coal tar are unsuitable for use with
Liquid Rubber Daclar™. Consult the Liquid Rubber Engineered Coatings
Technical Centre with any questions.
CAUTION
For industrial use only. Keep out of the reach of children. Avoid storage
below 5°C.
