AES-100 Flexible Roof Coating

Storage & Handling

AES-100 is a flexible two-part epoxy designed to protect a variety of surfaces including rubber, concrete, foam, plywood, and metal. AES-100 in conjunction with Poly-lace fabric and AES Base Coat, is also suitable for coating petroleum-based surfaces such as tar or rubber cement. It is especially suited to applications where surface movement may defeat the protection of a rigid coating.
Application Areas
AES-100 is excellent for waterproofing EPDM, built-up, single ply, foam, and metal roofs. It is also suitable for walkways, walls, sumps, and parking garages. The flexibility retained by AES-100 allows for surface movement caused by thermal shock to most structures.
Preparation
Surfaces must be cleaned free of grease, oil, films, dust, or any other contaminants. Most roof surfaces should be pressure washed to remove any barrier films. Metal must be free of mill scale, oils, rust, etc. Hard-finished concrete should be etched to provide profile or "tooth" for optimal adhesion. These preparation procedures are general guidelines. Consult AES technicians for further details or special preparation procedures. Roofing specifications are also available for various substrates.
Mixing
The mixing of parts A & B is very important! AES-100 has a mixing ratio of 4 parts "B" to 1 part "A". Use a power mixer to thoroughly combine both parts. Mix for at least 1 minutes per gallon. Allow idle activation time for at least 10 minutes. Lacquer thinner should only be added after the mixing process is complete.
Application
AES-100 can be applied by air-less spray equipment, brush, or roller at approximately 100-sq. ft. per gallon per coat. A two-coat application is recommended to help insure complete protection. Surfaces subject to significant movement or other difficult conditions may require heavier applications and the use of Poly-lace. All penetrations or transitions of surface materials should be Poly-laced. Surface configuration, weather, or area surroundings may dictate application method.
Dry Film Application Rate
To yield dry film of: Apply sq. ft. gallon
12 mls. 100 sq. ft.
6 mls. 200 sq. ft.
DO NOT apply heavier than 10 mils per coat. If more is needed, apply in multiple coats. Allow AES-100 to become tack-free before applying additional coats or approximately 6 hrs. at 80ºF.
Application Recommendations
Metal surfaces: 1 gal. / 100 sq. ft.
Foam or build-up roofing: 1.5 gal. / 100 sq. ft.
Build-up roof after removal of gravel: 3 gal. / 100 sq. ft.
Concrete: 1.5 gal. / 100 sq. ft.
Thinning
Lacquer thinning is recommended for best results. Do not exceed more than 2 quart per 5 gallon. Thinning retards cure time and extends pot life.
General
AES-100 should be applied in well ventilated areas. Surfaces should be free of foreign matter. DO NOT apply near open flame.
Clean Up
Application equipment should be cleaned immediately with lacquer thinner. Use Apple Cider Vinegar to clean hands and skin. Do not allow coating to remain on tools! Once it sets and is cured, it is difficult to remove.
Flammability
Flammable during application. Will not support combustion when cured.
