Beat April Showers with Cromapol Acrylic Roof Coating!
Even in today's changing climate, April showers are one thing you can always rely on here in the UK. They come around every April without fail; the writer Geoffrey Chaucer even mentioned them in his Canterbury Tales, which were written over 600 years ago! The result of season changes in the jet stream over the Atlantic Ocean, April showers are a time when many people start to notice leaks in their roofs.
Greengates Builders Merchant stocks an array of products designed to protect and repair vulnerable roofs. One of these products is Cromapol Acrylic Roof Protection, which is designed and manufactured by leading brand Cromar.
Cromar was established more than 25 years ago. An innovator right from the start, the brand has continued to grow and evolve, becoming in the process one of the most highly renowned manufacturers of a vast range of building chemicals including primers, mastics, paints, adhesives and more.
Expressly designed for waterproofing roofs, Cromapol Acrylic Roof Coating is a specialist formula that contains thousands of microscopic fibres. From the moment of application, these super-strong fibres get to work bridging even the smallest fissures and gaps, preventing the ingress of potentially damaging water.
All you need to apply Cromapol is an ordinary brush. The formula can be successfully applied to both pitched and flat roofs as well as roof lights, flashing and gutters. It is compatible with the vast majority of materials including lead, corrugated asbestos, metal, fibre cement sheeting, asphalt and slate.
In most cases, only one coat of Cromapol is necessary to deliver an instant seal, even in damp conditions. You don't even need to use a primer! Though the impervious seal is completely seamless, Cromapol retains its flexibility after curing so that it can accommodate the natural thermal movements of the roof without cracking.
When the April showers are over, Cromapol continues to provide benefits. The UV radiation experienced by a roof during summertime can be damaging but Cromapol boasts a high level of solar reflectivity to ensure that this damage is prevented. Delivering a useful service life of at least 10 years and even as much as 20 years, Cromapol Acryclic Roof Coating will keep on working for many seasons to come.
Cromapol can be supplied by Greengates in either Black or Grey and there are several different container sizes to choose from to suit any job whether large or small. As with our entire product portfolio, a competitive and cost-effective price point is guaranteed.
