- Features & Benefits
- Flexibility and Durability. Provides a seamless dry film that remains flexible and offers superior durability. Though not designed as a surface coating, performance properties are virtually unaffected by exposure to ultraviolet sunlight.
- Contractor Friendly.
- Performance Oriented. Specially designed with a low permeability to offer enhanced resistance to staining of underlying materials and peel resistance when subject to standing water conditions. Resists blistering, peeling and cracking normally associated with elastomeric coating.
- Low VOC, non-flammable during application, presenting minimal hazards to the applicator and the environment.
- Fungal and algal resistant, even in high humidity environments.
- Benefits
- Polyglass offers all the product components needed for these systems – one stop shop
- A variety of systems which can be used on new construction or tear off and replace roofs
- Offers excellent resistance to extended exposure to solar ultraviolet energy
- Can decrease the roof surface temperature, thereby reducing energy costs
- Superior tensile strength for a strong roof
- Easy to install, no kettle, no torch and no special tools or equipment needed other than a heavy roller
- Much safer than traditional hot asphalt BUR or torch down systems
- Should reduce the cost of insurance for the roofing contractor
- Low VOC and odor - presents minimal hazard to the applicator or the environment
- Resistant to dirt pick-up – easy to maintain
- Fungal and algal resistant

- Uses
- Protect and weatherproof a variety of roof surfaces.
- Suitable for use on various conventional BUR and polymer-modified roof membranes with smooth and mineral surfacing and most metal roof systems.
- Suitable as a stain blocking coating prior to the application of white surface coatings.
- Suitable for use on concrete and other masonry surfaces.
- Application Instruction
Surface Preparation
- All surfaces to receive coating must be clean, dry and free from any foreign matter such as dirt, oils, grease or other debris that could inhibit the adhesion capabilities of the newly installed products.
- Metal surfaces that display rusting or other oxidation, to be prepared with a grinder or wire brush as needed to remove surface contaminants.
- Existing roof systems to be visually inspected for conditions that may adversely affect adhesion of performance of newly installed products. Repair any visible deficiencies such as splitting, blistering, and buckling.
- Visually inspect all metal and non-metal flashings, edges, drains, valleys and through-roof penetrations and repair as needed by project conditions.
- Do not apply to wet or visibly damp surfaces, or surfaces previously covered with coal tar based products or Kynar® finishes.
- Concrete surfaces cured with wax/resin based compounds can inhibit adhesion.
Application
- Stir well prior to application.
- PolyBrite 76 may be applied by high pressure spray, roller or brush application methods.
- Apply PolyBrite 76 at 24 wet mils (1.5 gallon per 100 square feet) per coat.
- Apply only when ambient temperatures are 50º F and rising. Cold weather could result in uneven application and improper curing of product. Do not apply if there is a threat of inclement weather within 24 hours of application.
- Do not thin product. Do not heat outside of container. Do not apply at temperatures greater than 120ºF.
Cleaning
- Keep containers covered when not in use.
- Clean equipment and overspray with water.
- Clean hands with waterless hand cleaner.
- Application Types
