Please note: Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced can be used for various applications. Not all substrates would be suitable for all types of project. eg bitumen felt, paints, metals, etc, whilst acceptable for general roofing are unlikely to be suitable for applications with higher levels of access or foot traffic. Please consult Rawlins/Sika Technical Services for more information.
For ALL Systems
Note: The application of the system must be approached as one operation. Always plan for reasonable progress of each coat. Work only so far in advance that the existing surface can be overcoated as the next operation. Finish the coating system completely before progressing to the next area. The ideal time between coats is within 48 hours.
It is not good practice to plan breaks between coats of more than 7 days. For periods longer than this and less than 14 days the surface must be reactivated with Sika Reactivation Primer. Periods between coats longer than 14 days may affect the normal life term of the system –If this happens consult Sika for advice. Ensure each application/coat is clean and dry prior to overcoating
At no stage should the Sika system or waterproof coating in its finished or intermediate stage be used as a workspace or access floor without adequate protection.
*Please note: the above rates are for smooth substrates only.
Application Details
Substrate Quality
Cementitious substrates
New concrete should be cured for at least 28 days* and should have a pull off strength ≥1.5 N/mm2 . Inspect the concrete, including upstands, all areas should be hammer tested. Concrete must be suitably finished, preferably by wood float or steel pan. A power float finish is acceptable where the surface is prepared to avoid laitance (a tamped finish is not acceptable). The surface finish must be uniform and free from defects such as laitance, voids or honeycombing. The substrate must be of a suitable quality and condition to receive the system. Please refer to specification for further details.
Brick and stone
Bricks, blocks and mortar joints must be sound and preferably flush pointed.
Slates, tiles, etc.
Ensure all slates/tiles are sound and securely fastened, replacing obviously broken or missing sections and adequate cross ventilation is in place.
Asphalt
Asphalt can contain volatiles which may cause bleeding and slight non-detrimental staining. The asphalt must be carefully assessed for moisture and/or air entrapment, grade and surface finish prior to any coating works being carried out
Bituminous felt
Ensure that bituminous felt is firmly adhered or mechanically fixed to the substrate. Bituminous felt should not contain any badly degraded areas.
Metals
Metals must be in sound condition
Timber substrates
Timber and timber-based panel roof decks are to be well constructed, in good condition, firmly adhered, and with sufficient fixings for the nature and location of the site
Paints/Coatings
Ensure the existing material is sound and firmly adhered.
Existing Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced Systems
The existing Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced System should still be soundly adhered to the substrate.
Substrate Preparation
Cementitious substrates
Laitance, other loose friable material and weak concrete must be completely removed and surface defects such as blowholes and voids must be fully exposed. In severe cases use abrasive blast cleaning, grinding or scarifying equipment to achieve a sound surface.
Repairs to the substrate, filling of joints, blowholes/voids and surface levelling must be carried out using appropriate products.
High spots must be removed e.g. by grinding.
Outgassing is a naturally occurring phenomenon of concrete that can produce pinholes in subsequently applied coatings. The concrete must be carefully assessed for moisture content, air entrapment, and surface finish prior to any coating work. Any requirement for priming must also be considered. Installing the membrane either when the concrete temperature is falling or stable can reduce outgassing. It is generally beneficial, therefore, to apply the embedment coat in the late afternoon or evening
Brick and stone
Thoroughly clean by power wash and allow to dry. Where there is a risk of algal re-growth on absorbent surfaces use Sika Biowash. Please refer to the Sika Biowash Technical Datasheet for further information. Repair any spalling, flaking or other damage and replace any missing jointing.
Asphalt
Thoroughly clean by power wash and allow to dry. All major cracks should be sealed to allow continuity of the Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced System. Asphalt must be carefully assessed for moisture and/ or air entrapment, grade and surface finish prior to any coating works being carried out. Any priming requirement must also be considered
Bituminous felt
Thoroughly clean by power wash and allow to dry. Treat blisters by star cutting and removing any underlying water. Allow to dry and re-adhere using Decostik SP. Badly degraded areas should be replaced with Carrier Membrane bonded in Decostik SP.
Single ply
Various types of single ply sheeting can be coated. For further information please consult Sika Technical Services team.
Bituminous coatings
Remove loose, degraded, tacky or mobile coatings. Apply the Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced System directly.
Metals
Steelwork is ideally prepared to Sa2½ (Swedish Standard SIS 05: 5900 = 2nd quality BS4232 = S.S.P.C. grade SP10) OR as indicated by the blasting specification which may be of a higher standard. Where blasting to Sa2½ (Swedish Standard SIS 05: 5900 = 2nd quality BS4232 = S.S.P.C. grade SP10) is not permitted alternative blast media or clean metal preparation by pin hammer, etc. is acceptable. Less effective methods of preparation that leave corrosion in-situ may reduce expected life term.
Non-ferrous metals are prepared as follows. Remove any deposits of dust and oxidation and abrade to bright metal. Wire brushing can be used for soft metal such as lead. The surface must be clean and free from grease which, if present, must be removed with a proprietary solution. Wash with detergent, rinse and dry
Timber substrates
Timber and timber-based panel roof decks require a complete layer of Svap 5000E SA prior to the application of the chosen system. The substrate should then be treated as a felt roof. Small timber protrusions may be treated directly, provided that the timber is of exterior quality, e.g. marine plywood, (see Substrate Priming for further information).
Paints/Coatings
Remove loose or degraded coatings returning to a firm, feathered firm edge. Remaining coatings can only be overcoated if soundly adhered. Ensure the surface is clean and free from grease.
Existing Sikalastic® RoofPro Advanced Systems
Clean the membrane using a water jet at approximately 14N/mm2 (2000 p.s.i) using detergent and rinse thoroughly. Thoroughly clean by power wash and allow to dry.
Note: For the Waiting Time/Overcoating please refer to the technical datasheet of the appropriate cleaner/primer. Other substrates must be tested for their compatibility. If in doubt, apply a test area first.

Questions
Question about the product
jon Jordan on 2023-09-12 14:00:56 | Question:
Hi I all ready have your product on the roof but would like to redo. How do i go about putting another coat over the top. |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
To reapply this product the roof must be clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical data sheet. You would need to use the Sika Reactivation Primer prior to application. | |
chris hall on 2023-04-10 11:47:33 | Question:
Hi, I am considering using Sika roofpro D15 to overlay an existing GRP flat roof. Do I need to use a base coat and reemat with this system and finally a top coat. Thanks |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team:
The Sikalastic RoofPro Advanced can be applied to the GRP roof directly without any primer but it is recommended that the surface is lightly abraded, then cleaned before installing the waterproofing system. The waterproofing system consists of a base coat of RoofPro Advanced with the Sika Reemat Premium embedded into it, once fully cured, a top coat of RoofPro Advanced applied. | |
