As ambient air temperatures decrease, the relax time will increase..2 Layout the Fully Adhered System in a fashion so that field and flashing splices are installed to shed water..3 After making sure the sheet is placed in its final position, fold it back evenly onto itself so as to expose the underside..4 Sweep the mating surface of the membrane with a stiff broom to remove excess dusting agent (if any) or other contaminants from the mating surface..5 Apply Bonding Adhesive at about the same time to both the exposed underside of the sheet and the substrate to which it will be adhered so as to allow approximately the same drying time. Apply Bonding Adhesive so to provide an even and uniform film thickness. Do not apply bonding adhesive to areas that will be subsequently spliced..6 Allow Bonding Adhesive to flash off until tacky. Touch the Bonding Adhesive surface with a clean, dry finger to be certain that the adhesive does not stick or string. As you are touching the adhesive, pushing straight down to check for stringing, also push forward on the adhesive at an angle to ensure that the adhesive is ready throughout its thickness. If either motion exposes wet or stringy adhesive when the finger is lifted, then it is not ready for mating..7 Starting at the fold, roll the previously coated portion of the sheet into the coated substrate slowly and evenly so as to minimize wrinkles..8 Compress the bonded half of the sheet to the substrate with a stiff push broom..9 Fold the un-adhered half of the membrane sheet back onto itself, and repeat the bonding procedure to complete the bonding of the sheet MEMBRANE LAP SPLICING.1 Lap splice areas that have been contaminated must be cleaned as required by Manufacturer Specifications and Details..2 Once the membrane is in place, mark the bottom sheet 13 mm (1/2") to 19 mm (3/4") from the edge of the top sheet every 1.2 m (4') to 1.8 m (6').

18 Project No.: 2027 Page 18 of 20 flashing to the vertical surface. Provide lap splices in accordance with Manufacturer Details..4 Apply Bonding Adhesive at about the same time to both the flashing and the surface to which it is being bonded so as to allow approximately the same flash off time. Apply Bonding Adhesive in a uniform coating..5 Allow Bonding Adhesive to flash off until tacky. Touch the Bonding Adhesive surface with a clean, dry finger to be certain that the adhesive does not stick or string. While touching the adhesive, pushing straight down to check for stringing, also push forward on the adhesive at an angle to ensure that the adhesive is ready throughout its thickness. If either motion exposes wet or stringy adhesive when the finger is lifted, then it is not ready for mating. Flash off time will vary depending on ambient air conditions..6 Roll the flashing into the adhesive evenly and carefully so as to minimize wrinkles. After rolling FormFlash, peel off the release sheet and discard. FormFlash must be contoured to fit the substrate to which it is bonded to minimize bridging or gapping. Use a silicone or silicone sleeved steel roller for rolling in FormFlash..7 Ensure proper contact of flashing by brooming in place..8 Provide termination directly to the vertical substrate as shown in Manufacturer Details..9 Install T-Joint covers at field and flashing splice intersections as required by Manufacturer..10 Install intermediate flashing attachment as required by Manufacturer Specifications and Details FLASHING GRAVEL STOPS OR ROOF EDGE METALS.1 Apply Primer to the metal edging and membrane as described in Manufacturer Specifications.2 Place the roll of 127 mm (5 ) Flashing on the roof a few feet ahead of the application starting point, positioned so that it unrolls from the top of the roll.
