requirement of 1‐90. Verify the proper uplift requirements with the specifier or the local

building code authority.

1. Stagger all board joints. Lay boards with edges in moderate contact, without forcing. Cut

insulation to fit neatly to perimeter blocking and around penetrations through the roof.

2. Apply no more insulation than can be covered with waterproofing on the same day.

3. Install cant strips at internal corners and metal drip edge on outside perimeter.

B. PremiumCoat® FoundationCoat & Fabric Components – This procedure consists of one coat of PremiumCoat® FoundationCoat (“FoundationCoat”) applied to the substrate at the rate of 1.25 to 2.0 gallons / square. HydroStop PremiumCoat® Fabric (“Fabric”) (sizes vary) laid into the wet FoundationCoat, and a second coat of FoundationCoat immediately applied over the top at the rate of of 1.25 to 2.0 gallons / square to saturate the Fabric. FoundationCoat is applied at a total rate of 2.5 to 4.0 gallons / square, depending on the texture and porosity of the substrate. FoundationCoat should only be applied using approved roof brushes. Rolling and/or spraying FoundationCoat is strictly prohibited. Total Dry Film Thickness of FoundationCoat & Fabric Components is a minimum 27 mils.

1. Recovery Board Seams – Using 6” (30 cm) Fabric and FoundationCoat components (as

described above), waterproof all board seams, cracks and non‐working joints. Center 6” (15

cm) fabric over all seams.

2. Roof Perimeter‐ Using 12” (30 cm) Fabric and FoundationCoat components (described

above), waterproof entire roof perimeter. Continue waterproofing up vertical surfaces and

onto deck a minimum of 6” (15 cm) in each direction.

3. Roof Penetrations‐ Using 12” (30 cm) Fabric and FoundationCoat components (described

above) seal any items projecting through waterproofing material so they are watertight.

Waterproof up penetrations a minimum of 6” (15 cm).

4. Roof Field‐ Using 40” (1.0 m) Fabric and FoundationCoat components (as described above)

seal the entire roof field. Overlap adjacent runs of fabric a minimum of 4” (10 cm).


1. Apply PremiumCoat® FinishCoat in multi‐directional passes. Apply each coat

perpendicularly to the previous coat.

2. When applying PremiumCoat® FinishCoat in 3 or more coats on a single project, or to

promote faster dry times of individual coats, alternate colors of PremiumCoat® FinishCoat

may be applied.

3. Precautions: a. PremiumCoat® FinishCoat should not be applied at rates exceeding 1.5 gallons / square in

a single coat.


16

b. Atmospheric conditions may require application rates of less than 1.5 gallons /square per

coat to allow for reasonable cure times, as well as preventing “cracking” of the FinishCoat.







12.5 mils. Completed PremiumCoat® System must be installed to a minimum 39 mil total cured thickness.



16.5 mils. Completed PremiumCoat® System must be installed to a minimum 43.5 mil total cured thickness.
