 Application
Instructions
Application Method / Primer application on substrate for first membrane layer:
Tools
Application of Sika® Igolflex® P –01 S (product that contains solvent) consumption
approx. 300g/m2. Application by brush, roller, or airless spraying. Waiting time,
depending to temperature, complete evaporation. Priming for second and further
membrane layers not required.
Installation method:
Fully bonded to substrate by torch-on method with Propane - gas flame. Unrolling
and positioning of membrane roll with PE-film faced to substrate. Rolling of half roll
length, heating of membrane reverse with gas flame until melting of PE-film and
bitumen mass while continuous unrolling. A bead of liquid bitumen must be visible
on underside of roll. The torch-on membrane must be firmly pressed to substrate in
order to avoid air entrapments either with roller or heavy broom. Repeat procedure
with second half of roll length.
Construction

All installed membranes must be sufficiently overlapped. Sidelaps: 100 mm,

Endlaps: 150 mm. The seams must be finished with roller while installing of
membranes to close gaps and capillaries.
Notes on Application / This product shall only be used by installers, skilled and experienced in installation
Limitations of bituminous membranes.
Avoid damage on installed membrane while over torch of further sheet membrane
The watertightness of the structure must be tested and approved after completion
of the membrane installation works according to the requirements of the client’s
specifications.
