Dowsil Roofers Mate is a high-performance, elastomeric sealant designed for professional roofers and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable, weather-resistant solution for roofing repairs. Its primary benefit is its exceptional adhesion to difficult substrates like lead, bitumen, and galvanized steel, though users should note that the single-component formula requires adequate preparation of the surface to ensure a lasting bond. This versatile sealant is perfect for sealing gutters, downpipes, and corrugated sheets, providing a flexible, long-lasting barrier against the elements.

While it can be used indoors, it is specifically formulated for roofing and exterior applications where weather resistance and flexibility are paramount.
It is generally not recommended to paint over elastomeric sealants as the flexibility of the product may cause the paint to crack over time.
No, Dowsil Roofers Mate is designed for direct application to most common roofing substrates without a primer.
Cure time depends on temperature and humidity, but it typically skins over within minutes and reaches full cure strength over 24-48 hours.
No, this product is designed for roofing applications and is not rated for potable water contact.
It is strongly recommended to apply the product to a dry surface to ensure proper adhesion; moisture during application can compromise the bond.
Ensure the nozzle is cut correctly and check that the cartridge has not been exposed to extreme cold, which can thicken the formula.
The surface is likely damp or contaminated; clean the area thoroughly with a solvent cleaner and allow it to dry completely before reapplying.
Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free from loose debris, oil, or grease to maximize the life of the bond. Cut the nozzle to the desired bead size and use a standard sealant gun for application.
