questions Dee on 2024-09-26 13:59:47
Question: 

Hi, I have used a waterproof silicone to fill in gaps on my aluminium garage roof, can I used this product on top for extra protection.

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

No, this product wouldn't be recommended for use over a silicone based product due to a lack of adhesion.

Assuming the surface is clean, dry, sound and prepared as detailed in the technical datasheet, you could consider Cromar Hydrosil Silicone Roof Coating as a suitable alternative.

questions Stephen Carroll on 2024-08-12 15:59:41
Question: 

Can this product be applied directly to the top of a concrete council house door canopy? I'm looking to prevent water being absorbed into the canopy on the top side, which finds it's way to the underside of the concrete door canopy, ruining the paint finish. Also, can the product be painted over with a good quality masonary paint? Thanks.

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

Assuming the concrete canopy is clean, dry, sound, free from all surface contaminants and is prepared as detailed in the technical datasheet, this product could be applied to the canopy, helping to prevent the water absorption.

We would suggest to check the flashing as this may also be the cause.

However, it isn't designed to be overpainted with masonry paint once applied, for general maintenance you can re-coat with this product as/when required.

Question: 

If you use this product to temporarily seal anewly boarded roof prior to rubberised . Will the adhesive to secure rubber membrane adhere to it .Thanks.

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

For this type of application, Cromar Cromapol wouldn't be suitable as the adhesion properties of the rubber will not stick to this product, and will repel the moisture.

questions Trevor Mellor  on 2023-09-20 17:56:07

questions Keith Colbourne on 2023-02-20 13:43:04
Question: 

Hi, I have applied a thick Chromapol coating on the 5" inside upstand and 5" on the inside Asphalte floor of a conservatory door entrance, approx 1 mtr wide. What can l permanently put over the sticky Chromapol so the vinyl floor laying over, won't stick to it? Thought of adhesive backed aluminium tape Chromapol is and absolutely "Brilliant" product. Thank you Keith

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

Unfortunately we would not recommend this product for this application, it is designed as an emergency roof repair product. 

This stays tacky to the touch and we do not have a product to recommend to over paint this.

questions Tony Edwards  on 2022-11-24 13:39:48
Question: 

Could this product be used to waterproof around the floor edge of a mobile home? This would be applied underneath to create a seal between plywood (the side) and dense chipboard (the floor) and would not be overprinted.

Thank you for the enquiry, please can you provide more information and pictures of the areas in question to [email protected] and we can assist with a recommendation.

questions William guthrie  on 2022-02-24 17:17:29
Question: 

Hello Would this be OK to use as an undercoat on plywood to make it waterproof,which would then have two coats of finish paint.?

Question: 

I have treated the required area of my caravan roof and have a small amount left over, would it benefit from a 2nd coat once 1st coat is dry. Thanks, regards, Mike

Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: 

The recommended coverage rate is 1-2kg per m² we would recommend applying it at this rate, but a second coat can be applied once dry.
