Preparation | |
Horizontal work | SA-19 Primer.Guidance for specification option: Elevate SA-19 Primer is used to prime and prepare exterior concrete, wood, and metal surfaces to enhance the adhesion of Elevate V-Gard vapour control membrane. It's also used to prime seams when required. |
Skirtings and vertical work | SA-19 Primer.Guidance for specification option: Elevate SA-19 Primer is used to prime and prepare exterior concrete, wood, and metal surfaces to enhance the adhesion of Elevate V-Gard vapour control membrane. It's also used to prime seams when required. |
Air and vapour control layer | |
Type | V-Gard Vapor Control layer.Guidance for specification option: Elevate V-Gard Vapor Control Membrane is designed to be used as a vapour control layer in Elevate roofing systems. It consists of a reinforced aluminium foil with self-adhesive bituminous backing protected by a release film. The fibreglass reinforcement makes it suitable for applications that involve high mechanical stresses. The Elevate V-Gard membrane can be installed on concrete, wood and steel deck. |
Attachment | Self-adhesive bituminous backing. |
