Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Glass-reinforced base sheets resist wrinkling and help keep the membrane flat during interply mopping. Verify deck type and fastening pattern before unrolling, and lap base sheet edges the specified amount so interply asphalt bonds fully. In cold weather, store rolls indoors so the asphalt remains workable.
Handle heavy rolls with proper lifting technique and, when installing over hot asphalt, follow hot-work and fall-protection procedures.
