• IDEAL BASE SURFACE
• RESISTS OXIDATION
• HIGH SOLIDS CONTENT
• STRONG ELASTIC BOND
• EASY TO APPLY

Designed to penetrate and rejuvenate a dried-out roof surface by helping to restore flexibility to roofing felt. Its unfibered formulation provides a sound base and an ideally receptive surface for Texas Refinery Corp.'s MIGHTYPLATE ROOF COATINGS.

Contains a high-quality, catalytically air-blown asphalt which does not oxidize or deteriorate as quickly as conventional asphalts. Thus it resists becoming hard and brittle, enabling it to withstand the constant expansion and contraction caused by changing weather conditions.

Contains 70% asphalt. This gives it a significally higher solids content than many conventional roof primers which are approximately half solvent. As solvents evaporate, MIGHTYPLATE ROOF PRIMER leaves more protective asphalt on the roof surface.

Highly effective when used to seal together laps of roll roofing used in capsheet systems. It forms a tight bond, yet is highly resistant to hardening. Consequently it remains pliable to expand and contract with natural roof movement.

MIGHTYPLATE ROOF PRIMER is applied just as it comes from the container. No need for heating, stirring or thinning. It can be applied directly by brush, spray or roller. Expensive skilled labor is not needed.

In principle, all dried-out asphaltic roofs must be primed with a coat of MIGHTYPLATE PRIMER. The high-quality asphalt in MIGHTYPLATE PRIMER does not oxidize or deteriorate as quickly as conventional asphalts.

The purpose of priming is twofold:
 

Allow Primer to cure before applying MIGHTYPLATE Roof Coatings. Curing time depends on weather conditions and quantity of Primer used, but usually 10 to 14 days is sufficient.

Whether or not to apply Primer, as well as the quantity used, depends entirely on the condition of the existing roof surface.
