February 2, 20215 yr I have a neighbour with a flat roof that is leaking slightly and wants a product he can “slap on” whilst it’s still wet. He is planning to have it renewed/mended in the summer when it stops pissing down. Can anyone recommend such a product???
February 2, 20215 yr This says it can do it. https://www.resincoat.co.uk/en/roof-paints-coatings/544-resincoat-liquid-rubber-waterproof-coating.html
February 2, 20215 yr I've used Acrypol, Cromapol, Flexacryl. You can get a 5kg of Sealacryl online for about £30. Spent a good few hundred quid over the years. One side of the dormer is just about holding, the other side is shot! I keep putting off doing it properly as I'd like to extend the dormers by a few feet either side. It'll work for a while. Best results I've had when I've not just brushed off the debris but used a cleaner. Think I used No Nonsense Degreaser last time.

All the names I quoted work when the roof is really damp/wet. They were all much the same to apply. Broom to spread, bucket with a bin liner in for the broom when you're done. I'd go for this, cheapest I can find for 5kg in eBay: https://bond-it.co.uk/waterproofing/sealacryl/
February 2, 20215 yr Currently the shot side has a length of DPM on with sandbags.....it don't half flap and bang when it's windy! There's more bags up there now.
February 2, 20215 yr I slung one brand over another with no apparent reaction. One might have been a bit stiffer to spread but I can't remember which one. They all go on like hairy paint (the fibres) then it "settles".
