Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Asphalt type selection follows roof slope, with Type 3 the conventional choice for standard low-slope BUR moppings. Keep kettle temperatures within the product's equiviscous range for proper interply adhesion. Plan keg logistics early since hot asphalt work is schedule- and weather-dependent.
Hot asphalt poses serious burn and fire hazards; kettling and mopping require trained personnel, protective equipment and fire-watch practices.
