Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Choose the 5-gallon pail for small repairs and detail work and the 55-gallon drum for large commercial coatings jobs to reduce cost per gallon and mixing batches. Apply only to clean, dry, sound substrates and respect the manufacturer's directions on film thickness and recoat windows. On metal roofs, verify seam condition before coating; reinforcing fabric at seams is where the polyester-reinforced top coat application earns its keep.
Read and follow directions carefully and refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet for proper handling before use.
