High quality and affordable reinforcing scrim that is a reliable way to strengthen roof waterproofing. It is designed to increase the lifetime of the Polyshield roof waterproofing system. 

Uses of reinforcing roofing scrim

This reinforcing scrim should be used to reinforce your roof liquid waterproofing on the following materials: 

• Asbestos gutters and sheeting 
• Rooflights 
• Metal 
• Bituminous felts/coatings 
• Asphalt surfaces 
• Felted surfaces
• Single ply and Fibreglass roofs
• Wood 

Reinforcing Scrim is recommended for all of the following when waterproofing a roof:

• Upstands 
• Curves
• Joints
• Skylight bases
• Rainwater outlets
• Gutter expansion joints
• All repaired areas
• All fixings
• Any cracks, Splits, holes and joints                            

Applying Reinforcing Scrim

When adding reinforcement to your roof liquid waterproofing, you will need to apply a coat of the appropriate primer over the entire area. Then cut the reinforcing scrim to size to cover the coated area - this can be done easily with scissors.

Lay the Reinforcing Scrim into the wet primer and press it in using a paintbrush/roller. Apply the liquid roof waterproofing over the mesh.       

When reinforcing horizontal laps, make sure the reinforcement follows the profile of the sheet exactly, eliminating any possibility of air pockets being trapped under the reinforcement.
