Cromapol Acrylic Waterproofing Coating Grey - 5 KG

Fantastic item

My garage roof was leaking and I'd tried other products to resolve the problem but they all failed..saw this & for the price thought I'd give it a go before I gave up & spent £ thousands on new roof ( again..this one was replaced about 8yrs ago ) This product I found during use was best scooped out the tin with a spatula or similar item then spread using a large paint brush ..there's so much fibre mixed in you just can't get it out the tin any other way..& it seemed to work best that way.. My garage..flat roof , 5 x 4 m..took just over 1 & 1/3 of a tin and about 1 & a half hrs to complete...job done I left it to dry / set and within 40 min the heavens opened...NO.LEAKS ! ...job done ..£ thousands saved ! This product price wise was about half of most others I reviewed before making the decision to try it....says it can be painted on damp surfaces..it can because my roof had ponds of water lying up there that I brushed off prior to starting the job..and was effective pretty much the second it went on ! Light grey finish that looks good too and UV resistant so the blog on the tin says...how it lasts long term..? ..we' l have to wait & see on that subject. So far so good..good quality product..does what it says it will do and at very, very competitive price .

I couldn't rate this waterproofing highly enough. I have a bay window that has leaked for a while, I had someone put a felted roof on with guttering running around and at first it seemed ok. But when high winds came, along with the rain, it leaked again and steadily got worse. I decided to give Cromapol waterproofing a go after seeing good reviews. I am so happy I did, it was tough to stir, as it is thick, but worth all the effort. It goes on satisfyingly gloopy and covers superbly. I only needed half a tin and what a job it has done. No sign of a leak and I don't expect one either. I also got rid of the guttering ! I waited until after we had rain and high winds together before I wrote this review as I wanted to make sure I wasn't handing out false information. So hand on heart, this is worth every penny if you want to waterproof a bay window roof or any other flat type of roof.

This is the second paint i have bought . A cheap alternative to stop leaks on a flat roof . I put it on thick with a brush and it sealed small cracks and waited till it rained to find that the leaks had stopped thankfully

Wanted to refresh a fibreglass roof we had installed 10 years ago. This stuff is brilliant. Excellent coverage and the fibres in the paint allowed the paint to sit in and fill any small defects and splits. Took and while to get used to paint but once I did was able to get a really finish. Really pleased with finish, the roof looks new again.

finished result looks amazing however this was real hard work to apply. We sanded the roof first to remove the old coating. Ended up having to do the whole flat roof on my hands and knees with a fence paint brush (Stubby type bristles). Coincidently we had to purchase a 2nd tin to finish and this seemed to go on an little easier? Well worth all the effort as flat roof does look new and def waterproof as the torrential rain just leaves small bubbles off water, Very pleased with the result.

Lots of glowing reviews for this product and after using it I can see why. I have a very old (about 60 year) corrugated asbestos roof on my garage measuring 7.4 metres by 6.5 which had become porous, and cracked. I looked at various options, even replacement but disposing of asbestos, even the fairly innocuous reinforced cement stuff is crazy. The cheapest was to cover with the same profile grp or fibre cement panels but even these would cost around £1000 and then all the bolts would need to be cut off and replaced to allow the covering panels to sit properly adding about another £100 to the price over and above the difficulty of getting into some of the less accessible ones. I had previously coated the roof with bitumen which worked for a couple of years but as it began to crack and flake, the water started to come in again so I was back to square 1, in fact even minus one as I now had a lot of bitumen to remove. I scraped as much off as I could, pressure washed the roof to get it as clean as possible. Bought just the one 5kg tin to try it out and see what coverage I would get. It does say 1 to 2 sq metres per kilogram but in my experience these claims are often exaggerated. I applied it with a cheap 3" brush and it went on a treat. Much easier to apply than I expected after reading some of the reviews and really not that much different from ordinary paint. I applied it generously and then measured the area I had covered. One strip 86 cms wide by 7.4 metres and on the next strip 1 metre wide and I got 3 metres before I ran out of paint so this gives me just slightly over 9sq metres. In fact, if you allow for the corrugations the total surface area covered is likely over 10 sq metres so the claim of 1 to 2 sq metres per kilogram is more than justified. Just managed to get the job finished as, even at 11 am in was getting too hot to apply the paint. That evening it started to rain and has done all night. Not one drop of water anywhere under the bit I have painted which was by far the worst part of the roof. I am mightily impressed with this paint. Time will tell if it is a permanent solution but I will soon be ordering another four tins with discounts for buying quantities about another £100 to complete the job.

The product is truly excellent. I have used it on several occasions and it never fails to exceed my expectations. The delivery was slightly late but the wrapping was better than I could have hoped for. I am very pleased with the quality of the product and the service
