FAQs

Can I use this on non-EPDM roofs?

This sealant is specifically formulated for ClassicBond EPDM systems and should not be used on incompatible surfaces without testing.

How do I clean up excess sealant?

Excess wet sealant should be wiped away immediately with a clean rag. Cured sealant is extremely difficult to remove and may require mechanical scraping.

Is this sealant paintable?

ClassicBond Lap Sealant is not designed to be painted. It is intended to remain in its natural state to maintain its elastic and waterproofing properties.

How long does it take to cure?

Cure times vary based on ambient temperature and humidity, but it generally sets to the touch within a few hours and achieves full cure within 24 to 48 hours.

Can it be used in freezing temperatures?

Application is generally recommended in temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius to ensure proper flow and adhesion.

Does it require a primer before use?

For most clean EPDM surfaces, a primer is not required, but surfaces must be wiped free of all oils and debris.

Troubleshooting

Sealant is difficult to extrude from the tube.

Ensure the nozzle tip is cut at the correct angle and size, and check that the internal foil seal has been fully punctured.

Sealant bead appears uneven or messy.

Use a professional caulking gun for better pressure control and smooth the bead immediately with a silicone or plastic smoothing tool.

Sealant is not sticking to the substrate.

The surface is likely contaminated; clean the area thoroughly with an appropriate EPDM cleaner or primer and allow it to dry completely before re-applying.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture resistance for flat roofs
  • Professional finish for compression-type joints
  • Simplifies the sealing of wall chase details
  • Provides reliable protection for tape edges

Cons

  • Requires manual precision during application
  • Specific to EPDM systems
  • Potential for mess if not applied with a consistent bead

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure maximum adhesion, the EPDM surface must be clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or contaminants before application. Apply the sealant using a standard professional-grade caulking gun, ensuring a continuous and uniform bead. For compression joints, smooth the bead immediately after application to ensure complete contact with both surfaces. When used as an edge sealer for 228mm tape, apply it along the exposed perimeter of the tape and use a clean tool to flatten it into a tidy, uniform profile. Store the sealant in a cool, dry place and ensure the nozzle is sealed tightly after each use to prevent the product from curing inside the tube.
