An extremely long-lasting, flexible, solvent free crown coating that requires no mixing or separate bonding agents. And it carries a fantastic 10 year warranty!
WeatherTite Crown Repair is a revolutionary premixed crown repair system that forms a flexible, waterproof coating to seal and protect chimney crowns. It can be used in a variety of horizontal or vertical waterproofing applications as long as the surface is structurally sound. You would use this product when your chimney crown has cracks in it but otherwise it is in good condition. Do not apply Crown Repair to loose masonry.
For chimney crowns, brush the surface free of loose dust or granules, mist the area with clean water from a spray bottle, then apply Crown Repair with a trowel or putty knife. Since it”s a flexible material, it can be used right against the flue tile with no airspace required. Crown Repair is most effective when spread to a uniform thickness between 1/8″ – 1/4″ (1″ max.). Depending on the texture and porosity of the surface, one gallon of Crown Seal will cover 15 to 18 sq. ft. at 1/8″ thickness. It dries to a natural concrete/mortar appearance in just a few hours, depending on temperature and humidity, and cures in 24 to 72 hours.
Crown Repair should not be used when temperatures are expected to fall below 40 degrees. Temperature should be 40 degrees or above for at least 24 hours. It is always a good idea to tape off the faces of the bricks and put down a drop cloth on the roof to prevent staining. Always proceed with caution when working on the roof.
