ALDOCOAT 397
- Chemical Family
- Silicon-based Compounds
ALDOCOAT 397 is a high solid, low VOC, one-part silicone elastomeric coating specifically designed for use in roofing applications as a protective coating over a variety of roofing substrates. Once cured this liquid applied silicone coating provides a durable, seamless, flexible, waterproof membrane that resists lateral movement, shear and will allow for normal expansion and contraction. It provides greater UV protection than similar silicone coatings and offers increased resistance to moisture penetration and excellent long term protection through exceptional weatherability properties.

- Handling
Avoid contamination in sealed containers.; Store away from heat and sources of ignition.; Do not inhale vapor or mist; do not get on skin, in eyes or on clothing.
- Application Instructions
ALDOCOAT 397 may be applied by medium nap rollers, soft brushes or high pressure airless spray equipment. Apply ALDOCOAT 397 only to clean, dry, sound surfaces free of loose particles or other foreign matter.; For best results, ambient temperature should be between 50 - 90 °F. Higher temperatures will shorten the cure time and working time for proper application of granules before the material has skinned. Lower temperatures will lengthen the skinover, tack free and ultimate cure time. Sudden temperature declines may also result in dew formation on surfaces, which can prevent adhesion development.; For best results, relative humidity should be above 20%. Lower humidity will slow the cure time significantly.; Apply ALDOCOAT 397 at the rate of 1.25 gallons per 100 sq. ft.; Minimum dry mil thickness shall be above 20 mils.; Two passes of silicone and a primer coat may be required for some applications and warranty programs.
