Cold Weather Roof Coatings with Castagra’s Ecodur

Question is, can you apply roof coatings in the Winter time? Of course!

In this blog we explain how Castagra’s Ecodur commercial roofing solution can be applied year round!

Repairs In The Cold?

When dealing with roof coatings that are acrylic, majority of times the temperature need to surpass at least a temperature of 50°F.

In addition, no fog, dew, rain, or temperatures in the freezing.

On the contrary, silicone-based products will offer less rigidity, but still should not be applied during freezing temperatures.

Other asphalt patch products are okay to be applied in below freezing temperatures, but the consequence is the curing will occur slower. For best results 30 up to 180 days before they are even suitable for a topcoat or any traffic.

Ecodur Is Superior

A big factor that puts Castagra’s Ecodur roofing solution above all else is that the curing process is completely self-contained, which doesn’t require any off-gassing or evaporation.

Even below freezing temperatures, Castagra’s Ecodur will cure.

What that means for you is that even in Winter you can still use Castagra’s Ecodur roofing solution.

Our solution can completely cure and will accept topcoats.

For emergency repairs you can apply over a damp substrate to contain the leakage temporary.

Once coated over a damp surface you should inspect before completing a coating project when better weather comes around, but this method can really help you get through a storm.

For emergency repairs, Ecodur can even be applied over a damp substrate as a temporary leak stop. Anything coated over a damp surface should be inspected before completing a coating project in better weather, but it can be a great way to get you through a storm.

 Make sure to understand you cannot mix or apply a frozen product, keep Ecodur stored in room temperature so it will be ready for usage.
