Met-A-Gard

Met-A-Gard roof restoration system features advanced acrylic coatings with superior elongation, tensile strength, and durability for commercial and industrial metal roof restoration.

• Record type: complete manufacturer-defined roof restoration system
• Technical basis: one system quick specification plus 8 matched application, component or brochure documents
• Selection control: use the substrate-specific application guideline and current component data sheets together

Designed for use over metal roof substrates.

Treat this record as an assembly rather than as a single coating. Use the linked application guideline and component data sheets to confirm the required primer, repair materials, base or intermediate coats, reinforcement, topcoat and installed coverage for the selected substrate.

Document the roof construction, moisture condition, drainage, defects, previous coatings and adhesion-test results before specification. Wet insulation, unsound decking, active movement or incompatible existing materials require a project-specific repair or replacement decision before coating work starts.

Use the current system quick specification as the assembly-level source and the matched product data sheets for component limitations and application requirements. Record document titles, revisions and retrieval dates in the project submittal so later users can distinguish the specified edition from a replacement document.

Coordinate surface preparation, detail treatment, mixing, application equipment, wet-film checks, cure windows and weather limits from the linked manufacturer documents. Field changes to a primer, reinforcement or topcoat can change the represented system and should be approved and recorded.

Use the manufacturer guidance for drains, penetrations, curbs, seams, fasteners, terminations and transitions between unlike substrates. Record where reinforcement or a different detail material is required; a field-applied patch should not be assumed to represent the published assembly.

Confirm slope, drainage, existing moisture, adhesion, traffic exposure and local code or approval requirements for the specific project. Published system information is a technical reference and does not replace a roof survey, design responsibility or manufacturer review where required.

Retain closeout photographs, batch information, measured coverage, repair locations and the accepted submittal. Inspect drains, seams, penetrations, terminations, traffic areas and coating condition during service, and use a new cited history entry when the manufacturer revises or withdraws a system document.

Cite the exact system specification, application guideline and component data-sheet editions used for the project. When a source changes, add the replacement as a new current record and move the earlier document to the archive with its status, author, timestamp and reason preserved.
