A:  rvcrazy, Henry 885 TropiCool is a patching sealant used to repair seams, cuts, splits, breaks or holes. Henry 885 is not a product that should be used to coat a roof. The coverage rate of Henry 885 is 12 square feet per gallon applied at 1/8th inch thick or approximately 6 square feet per gallon applied at 1/4th inch thick.

    Answer This Question

    A:  MichaelJay, you probably could use Henry 885 TropiCool for that purpose. You would be better off using Henry 900 Construction Adhesive and flashing sealant to seal the gaps. Henry 900 is an adhesive as well as a sealant and specifically designed to seal gaps between two dissimilar surfaces.

      A:  Lillotus1212, you could probably use Henry 885 for that purpose or Henry 887 TropiCool 100% silicone roof coating but we would not warranty it for that purpose. You could also use Henry 107 Asphalt Emulsion to coat the fish pond since it won't harm the fish. Henry 107 is a black product.

              Q:Can you use it on a rubber roof to stop leaks
              by|Sep 30, 2023
              1 Answer
              Answer This Question

              A:  Joey, Henry 885 should work just fine on an aged rubber roof to stop or repair roof leaks. Henry 885 is a moisture cure product and does not contain solvents so it won't harm the rubber roof.

                Q:I have a rubberized aluminum coating on my flat roof and am getting leaking in areas with ponding water. After sealing the leaks I'd like to apply another layer of roof coating. Will 885 (or any silicone alternatives) adhere to the rubberized aluminum?

                Answer This Question

                A:  Rachel, if the rubberized aluminum is Henry 869 Rubberized Aluminum then you can use Henry 208R or Henry 209XR to seal the leaks. Henry 885 100% silicone will not be compatible with a solvent based product like Henry 869.

                  Q:can I use this product to correct the slope on small ponding areas on my roof?

                  Answer This Question

                  A:  Jason, you can do that but it will take a fairly long time to cure if you apply it too thick. You could put successive coats on and let it cure for a few days in between. However, Henry 887 TropiCool 100% Silicone white roof coating is waterproof and permanently ponding water resistant so it will not break down if water sits on it longer than 48 hours like acrylic coatings do. You could just coat the ponding areas with Henry 887.

                    Q:Can this be applied over a shingle roof with a couple of leaks in different spots?
                    by|Sep 21, 2023
                    1 Answer
                    Answer This Question

                    A:  Geary, some people have applied Henry 887 TropiCool 100% silicone to shingles but we do not recommend it and we will not warranty it for that purpose. For leaks you should use a leak stopper such as Henry 208R, 209XR or our clear patch - Henry 212 Crystal Clear Patch. Henry 887 TropiCool is a roof coating that is meant for use on flat or very low slope roofs.
