Multibase SB
Mule-Hide Products Co.
Multibase SB from Mule-Hide Products sets the stage for the company’s 100% Silicone Roof Coating, delivering strong adhesion and blocking asphalt bleed-through. It can be applied to modified bitumen, EPDM, PVC, asphaltic built-up roofing, concrete and Hypalon roof surfaces that do not experience ponding water. It saturates the substrate, contains minimal pigment and has no mineral fillers, enhancing its bond with the roof surface. As a stain-blocker, it helps ensure that white finish coats provide optimal reflectivity. Light yellow out of the container, it cures to darker amber, offering visual confirmation that it has cured and the finish coat can be applied.
