Apply only to a sound, completely dry, well prepared roof surface. Leaks
must be repaired before any coating is applied. Prepare surface by thoroughly

pressure washing with a water and chlorine mixture using at least 1500 P.S.I.

to remove any previous coatings, dirt, grease, and other foreign materials,
especially mold, mildew and algae. METAL-PRIME RED will resist mildew

growth, but will not kill mildew already on the surface. Apply METAL-

PRIME RED in rusted or corroded areas that need to be treated. TWO
COATS OF METAL-PRIME RED MUST ALWAYS BE APPLIED. Patch

any holes, cracks, flashings, valleys, vents, etc., with
PERMAPATCH™ Elastomeric Patching Compound, a Waterproof Caulk and

Sealant, after METAL-PRIME RED application. Tape & seal all seams
with TAPE PERMA, a Polyester Fabric Tape or STIKPERMA Butyl Tape.

NOTE: METAL-PRIME RED-Rusted Metal Primer Sealer may be used as a

saturant for the TAPE PERMA with the second coat of METAL-PRIME RED
applied over the TAPE PERMA.

APPLICATION PROCEDURE:

Stir well. You will notice METAL-PRIME RED to be quite thick. This is
necessary to hold the high solids of zinc and red iron oxide pigments in

suspension. If thinning is necessary, use water sparingly, not exceeding 8

ounces per gallon of primer. Be sure to only thin the amount of product that
will be used within 24 hours, or settling of pigments may occur. If possible,

METAL-PRIME RED should be applied as is from the container, no thinning.

Apply at temperatures above 40℉ and when primer will not be subjected to
rain or heavy dew before it has had a chance to dry (approximately 2-4 hours).

Apply with short nap roller, brush or at least a 1 gallon per minute piston type
airless sprayer with a minimum tip size of .027. Apply uniformly and do not

leave any puddles. Two coats are required. The first coat may show some
flash rusting, but the second coat will completely encapsulate all active

oxidation. Spot priming is acceptable, but the applicator should be aware of

the possibility of microscopic rust not visibly seen. Spot prime with two coats
of METAL-PRIME RED and extend one foot beyond the perimeter of the
