PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
DISSCO 551 is a ready to use, non-fibered asphalt base coating of heavy paint consistency, manufactured with high grade industrial type blown asphalts and industrial grade solvents compounded with special slow drying, penetrating weatherproofing oils.
DISSCO 551 is specially formulated for priming all dried out asphalt based composition roof surfaces to resaturate and revitalize the old felt to a full-bodied, uniform, weatherproof base for proper application of DISSCO 550 Fibered Roof Coating.
DISSCO 551 is also excellent preventative maintenance coating to prevent the sun and other weathering elements from deteriorating the composition roofing. Also widely used as an economical protective coating for masonry and metal surfaces, such as metal roofs, gutters, spouts, tanks, structural iron, underground pipes, etc. which need protection against water and rust damage. DISSCO 551 is inert to mild acids and alkali, chemically inert, non-poisonous and non-toxic when used as directed.
APPLICATION
DISSCO 551 is ready to use directly from the container. No thinning or heating required. DISSCO 551 can be applied by roller, brush, or sprayed with adequate airless equipment. The surface to be coated must be clean and dry, free of any material which prevents proper adhesion to the surface.
RECOMMENDED COVERAGE
It is recommended that the DISSCO 551 be applied at a rate of 1 to 2 gallons per 100 square feet of area. Application rates may vary with the condition of the surface to be coated.
