- Basic Use
Millennium EPDM Edge Sealant is designed to seal the exposed edges of EPDM membrane roof system splices, T-joints, step downs, tie-ins, termination bars, and general flashing details.
- Surface Preparation
All work surfaces should be clean, dry, free of dirt, dust, debris, oils, un-adhered coatings, deteriorated membrane and other contaminants that may result in a surface that is not sound or is uneven. If necessary, clean the surface to receive the Edge Sealant with an approved EPDM membrane cleaner.
- Application Method
1. Prior to application, ensure that all seams and/or flashings are properly installlled according to the EPDM roof system manufacturer’s guidelines.
2. Cut nozzle on tube for desired bead size. Place patented feathering tip over cut nozzle prior to installing cartridge into caulking gun.
3. Gun 1/4” (6.4mm) size bead of Millennium EPDM Edge Sealant along the exposed edge of membrane seam splice or flashing.
4. No tooling of installed sealant is necessary if feathering tip is used. If feathering tip is not used, tool the sealant. Tool the sealant bead so the high point is above the offset of the splice and the edges are feathered onto the deck.
5. Typically membrane and flashing seams must be allowed to age at least 2 hours before Millennium EPDM Edge Sealant is installed. Refer to EPDM roof system manufacturer guidelines for additional recommendations.
