looks like its time to budget for a new roof, its on borrowed time... :thumbup:
IMO, install a single ply 60 mil PVC system.. very clean roof system, especially when you gotta look at it.. LOL
Yeah it looks bad in the picture now that we've cleaned away all the gravel and rocks that normally sit on top. I bought a bag of fresh rocks and I'm going to Henry's the whole shelf Then lay in some reinforcement paper and put another layer on top and then put a new layer of rocks that will make it much better.
good luck!!!!
PS, burn your clothes when your done, henrys will always bite you when you not looking (the shit gets everywhere)
the secret to henrys, have a towel on hand, when you get one spot on your hand, tool, bucket ANYTHING, immediately wipe if off ...
IMO,
1. you are playing with FIRE (MESSY)
2. its gonna be a MESS when your fix doesn't work, then the contractor you hire to replace the roof removes your work and the original system.
3. Return the material and Call a Pro.
Looks like you did a great job!
Next time, wear the long kitchen gloves... Heavy rubber that goes half way up the arm... Ask any Good wife.. They know about them... lol
good job, that should hold for a few years, also good job with the cleanliness .. lMPRESSED!!!
that SHIT gets everywhere!!!! :champagne:
Cleaning up; F that big orange, hand cleaner shit.... if you're gonna be a Roofer...you gotta go old school... gas only...there was no hand cleaner when I started ...LOL, gas and borax soap.... many times I went around for a few days with mastic (Henry plastic roof cement) in unnoticeable areas....LOL
41 years working with that SHIT...GOOD TIMES
That SHIT has some magic powers...it jumps out of the can and gets on ya before you even open the can....
That'd DO!!!!! LOL[SUP][/SUP]Guy on the job was bein a dick so we put just a TINY dab of that crap on his truck door handle.:skull
Pacific Polymer Elasto-Deck BT.... Good SHIT (I use that for my personal shower pans when the homes are occupied )The only thing worse is the black waterproofing from Pacific Polymers. I got that shit on my old dually seat I dont know how but I am sure it is still there.
That looks like it will hold up for some time but be a nightmare to remove when the time comes. A 5 gallon bucket of hot tar would of been the way to go over it.
Nick, ps, acetone will clean up elasto deck BT...The only thing worse is the black waterproofing from Pacific Polymers. I got that shit on my old dually seat I dont know how but I am sure it is still there.
