    Underrated Product

    Posted by Jake Spense on 1st Jun 2023

    I used this product instead of Blue Max because my local hardware store was out of Blue Max. I have to say, it performed just as well as the Blue Max I used in the past!

    A saving grace

    Posted by Matt G. on 18th Jul 2017

    Overall I am happy with the product performance. I put in a new estimated 240sq ft plywood roofdeck. I bought the seal tape and elasto barrier, and the roofing fabric. Seal tape review, takeaway is it works well, but the 6 inch is hard to work with. The inch tape is MUCH easier to work with. Lessons learned, use smaller sections of the 6inch tape so that it doesn't fold onto itself and ruin the entire piece. Elasto barrier review, I put down a liberal first coat directly onto the clean, dry plywood. This coat has been my saving grace to this point. Lessons learned. Apply the first coat liberally under direct sunlight. Roofing fabric review, For the next step I tried to embed the roofing fabric as seen in a few videos online. I realized a few key points after I experienced some hardships. Takeaways, If doing this alone, cut the roofing fabric in half to make it easier to use. Two, make sure the coat of elasto barrier you put underneath the fabric to embed it is liberal and does not miss any areas the fabric touches. Three, DO NOT allow any wrinkles or bubbles. My final steps have been and will be, elasto barrier the cut-out bubble holes. Let the patches cure for 1.5 days in sun and double-check for any more bubble patches I have missed. Next, I will apply final liberal topcoat of elasto barrier to whole roof. Let cure. Top coat with safe t deck. Overall I am happy with the product performance, although the roofing fabric application could have been a better experience if I had known the dire importance of these few things I mentioned above. Live and learn and hopefully this deck will still turn out nice. Hope this helps another serious DIYer.

    Long-lasting

    Good stuff. I used this under the Maximum stretch and it has been 10 years in the southern sun, and I have my first leak. I am going to order some maximum stretch and recoat. It was recommended to recoat in 5 years so lasting 10 was good service.

    Finally, something that works!

    Posted by Mike R on 8th Oct 2016

    We tried all kinds of products to seal our deck. This one worked and lasted well over 10 years. Apply as instructed with a base coat, then the mesh then extra base coats to cover the mesh and finally the UV protection. We applied an added coat after 5 years and it still was shedding water with no cracking after 15 years when we moved.

    Proven over months

    Posted by Sterling W on 16th Nov 2014

    Once upon a time, I had a leak on my upper deck that covers my lower patio area. So desperate to stop the leak, I was hoodwinked into buying products like Flex Seal and other tarred materials. Those products did not stop my leak. It wasn't until I used your products the Super Elasto Barrier followed by the Maximum Stretch, I was able to stop the leak. I waited several months after the initial use to provide this feedback because I wanted to be sure your product worked. Well, here in the Dallas Metro Area we have had several tornado like rains and my deck does not leak. I will not hesitate to recommend your product particularly the Maximum Stretch to anyone. Keep up the good work, take care.
