Protect P1 Black Roof Coating 5kg
Protect P1 Black Roof Coating is designed for general roof maintenance and repairs. This high-build, solvent-based acrylic coating contains fibres that interlace to help bridge small gaps and cracks. Applied evenly, it forms a continuous waterproof barrier and is water resistant immediately after application.
Suitable surfaces
The product label lists flat and pitched roofs, weathered asphalt, bituminous surfaces, gutters, concrete, brickwork, fibreglass, felt, and galvanised or ferrous metal. Assess the condition and construction of the surface to confirm that Protect P1 is suitable for the job.
Key features
- High-build coating with a black finish
- Fibre reinforced to help bridge small gaps and cracks
- Water resistant immediately after application
- One-coat application by brush, roller or squeegee
- Suitable for a range of roofing surfaces listed on the label
Coverage and drying
Apply at approximately 1–2kg per m², depending on the condition and porosity of the surface. One 5kg tin therefore covers approximately 2.5–5m² at the stated application rate. Rough or porous surfaces may need more coating.
Protect P1 is touch dry in 3–4 hours and reaches full cure in 6–7 days. Apply when the temperature is between 5°C and 25°C.
How to apply
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from loose debris, moss, lichen, dirt, grease and standing water. The label states that most roofing substrates do not require a primer.
- Stir thoroughly before and during use until the coating has an even consistency.
- Apply generously with a brush, roller or squeegee at the recommended rate. Work evenly to achieve a continuous coating.
Safety information: Protect P1 is flammable. Keep away from ignition sources, ensure good ventilation and wear suitable protective gloves, eyewear and clothing. Do not use near fishponds or allow the product to enter drains. Read the full product label before use.
