Hi All
Here are the pics of our little project. The product worked great, and we are extremely happy with the results. We washed the roof down, let it dry, and then applied the butyl tape you sell along the cracked seam. Two gallons were sufficient for the roof's perimeter that needed the work. No doubt, this will be a long-term solution. The product is nice and thick, and it is remarkable how it self-levels into the small nooks and crannies.
We just finished about 5000 sq ft of the roof. I got about 150-170 sq feet per 5-gallon bucket. This was because of the about of imbedded rock in the roof material. All in all, the cleaning was 90% of the work as we blew it all off first then power washed the roof which took forever. The application of the product was very fast. Thanks for your help and I look forward to continuing on with the entire roof.

We have been dealing with a deteriorating roof for a long time and finally had the Butyl Liquid Rubber recommended by another of our properties. We had applied the flash coating and once it cured, we had more rains. So far, even with just the flash coating, we have not had reports of roof leaks. We applied the main coat and it should cure before the next round of rain. I wish we had known about this product sooner! We will be ordering much more as you can see we have quite a bit of roof on the outlet buildings.

Here are some pics from my completed project. I have a slightly sloped modified bitumen roof on the upper part of my house. There were no leaks in the old roof but i wanted to keep it that way with your product going over the top of the existing roofing. It is 400 sq ft. I ordered 8 gal of your black liquid butyl rubber and 1 gal of roof cleaner. I cleaned the roof. Let it dry. And applied the rubber with a paint roller and long handle. It went on very well and was an excellent project. Cleaning took 90 mins. Butyl application took 2 hours.
See the pics attached. First pic is cleaning, then before starting, then during application and finally 2 after completion. The white spots in the final pics are just sun reflections. Could not be more pleased. After I did my research, the solvent based Liquid BUTYL rubber looked to be the best. Also, the fact that there was no primer and you only needed one coat was a huge plus. Great customer service also.
This is an ongoing project consisting of 40,000 sq ft of metal roof. As you can see the metal is heavily rusted and with the Liquid Butyl Rubber there are no primers or rust treatment needed. As you can see it literally can be applied directly over this rusted roof. This allows our customer to save considerable time and money with our one coat process. The reason is our unique solvent that allows the Liquid BUTYL Rubber to literally chemically cross-link to the substrate it is being applied over. As the product dries it becomes one in the same with your existing roof. A unique chemistry we challenge you to fine in another coating. Our product has also been ASTM certified and with over a 25-year history of success has been the choice of thousands of satisfied customers around the world.

Responding to your before and after for AMEX: Thank you for a great product that has taken our old As Was roof with leaks to a water-tight barrier for our business!

We finished our prep work around the entire roof. Amazing how the product self-leveled and it certainly has some teeth to it as it cures. We will be placing the big order for the entire roof in a few weeks.
Thank you, guys for all the help. By the way NOTHING compared to the Liquid Butyl Rubber vs the other products our engineer tested. We had tested 4 different products before we pulled the trigger on yours.
This Liquid Butyl is an amazing product for EPDM roof repairs. We've had our flat EPDM roof for over 10 years and have tried at least 5 different products that have all failed over time on lap seams and areas where water collects and then freezes over the winter. Each time some part failed, we kept adding more and more products to the seams and seams areas were getting thick and starting to disrupt rain flow. Somehow we were able to find EPDM Coatings after an exhaustive search, it was pure luck as search results mainly advertise larger box store brands. After cleaning the areas, the product went on smoothly and easily. We have covered over all of our multiple previous patches and finally have some peace of mind and stop worrying about leaks. Best of all is product conforms to the existing surface and does not add thickness.

Greg/Lenny, and Gang,
I am very impressed with your product. Our roof had severe leaks before. Obviously as a car dealer with a showroom we were very concerned that nothing had fixed them to date. We purchased your product and applied it earlier this year. We were very concerned last week as the remaining storm from hurricane/Tropical storm Ian just came through dropping over 2 inches of rain during that period. Happy to say the building is dry. Not one leak!
Initially our seams were the issue but decided to coat the entire roof while we were doing the project. SeamTight was applied to the seams, and we embedded the poly fabric into the seams let dry and then came back and coating the entire roof with the Liquid Butyl Rubber. Our AC areas were really bad, so we coated around those first with the SeamTight. Was very impressed with the way that the product self-leveled. We had tried the traditional products from the local stores. Elastomerics and acrylics but they did not hold up after a couple years plus most required primers. We considered silicone but when we found that it attracts dirt and looses it UV after a few years we continued our search. We tested your product on our 2nd floor area last year before we decided to coat the roof. It is true on the site what it says once this is down you are not peeling this up. Expecting to do our other roof next year that one is about 22,000 sq ft.
Thanks Again

Thanks, Terry, for submitting in your photos
We had a continual leak that plagued us for the last three years we tried other products but after several rains the leak always come back. This was a roof that was applied with an elastomeric coating about 18 months ago and started to peal in certain areas. We first took epdm coatings suggestion and reinforced the seams with their seam tape prior to applying our Liquid Butly Rubber. We also caulked around the joints with their Butyl MS Caulk and let dry overnight. The next day we applied the BLR at a rate of 50 sq ft per gallon. It was very clear from the beginning that this was a very different type of product. We had plenty time to work with it and it was very easy to apply. Much thicker that the last two products we used, and as we rolled the product, we could see the roller marks disappear and what remained was a very nice seamless membrane. I really looked like someone put a 400 sq ft single sheet of rubber on the roof. I was very confident at the time we applied the product that the seams will hold since the product adhered very well.
It has now been about a year, and we have yet to have a leak. Love the fact that there was no primer needed. The other brands after I told them we had an elastomeric said we needed a primer and two coats of their topcoat. Great tech support as well. I had called in a few times, and they picked up the phone and were there to assist. We will be a customer again. Already told our neighbor who I think already bought from you guys.
