GarMesh is used as a reinforcement for repairs to roofing blisters, fractures, punctures and other defects. GarMesh is compatible with either asphalt or tar mastics and adds strength to the roofing repair. It is a Styrene-Butadiene-Rubber (SBR) coated, woven, fiberglass scrim with a distinct orange color that contrasts with bitumens to ensure complete coverage.

Trowel | Area to be repaired must be dry, free of all dust, dirt, and debris. Remove embedded gravel to expose a smooth surface. Priming the sound and dry area with Garla-Prime® is optional, but will promote adhesion. Apply the roofing mastic over the surface to be treated at approximately 1/8 in. (0.32 cm) thick. The mastic should extend 2 in. (5 cm) in all directions beyond the GarMesh membrane that is to be used. Then apply 1/8 in. (0.32 cm) additional mastic over the embedded GarMesh ensuring that the orange color is completely covered. |
