KARNAK 501 Elasto-Brite White

01 Elasto-Brite .

DESCRIPTION:

Karnak 501 Elasto-Brite is a co-polymer elastomeric, 100% acrylic emulsion coating. 501 Elasto-Brite

provides excellent protection, appearance,mildew resistance, color stability, weatherability and flexibility.

USES:

501 Elasto-Brite is designed to be applied directly over built-up roof surfaces that have aged a minimumof

90 days, SBS and APP granularmodifiedmembranes and smooth surfaceAPPmembranes that have

weathered aminimumof 30 days as well asmetal roofs.Also for use on above grade vertical surfaces such as

concrete, concrete block, brick, stucco, metal and wood. May also be used for application over applicable

base coats 405 Bond-N-Shield, 406 Tru-Grip, 404 Corrosion Proof Base and 535 QS Enviro-Lastic as a

base coat for EPDM. Meets ASTMD-6083.

SURFACE PREPARATION:

Surfaces to be coated should be dry, clean, free of dirt, dust, grease, oil and loose paint. Power wash

surfaces with TSP substitute and water.Wash roof surfaces with a minimum of 2000 psi. taking all necessary

precautions to avoid damage to the roof system. Patch and repair cracks or holes with appropriate sealants or

caulkingmaterials. All wet insulation should be removed and replaced with like materials. New BUR roof

surfaces must age a minimum of 90 days before coating. Newly installed cold-process, hot-applied and

torched-applied modified bitumen membranes should age 30 days before coating. Allow fresh masonry to

cure a minimum of 30 days before application. 501 Elasto-Brite or subsequent base coats should be dry

prior to application of 501 Elasto-Brite.

APPLICATION:

Mix lightly prior to application of the coating. 501 Elasto-Brite may be applied by brush, spray equipment or

roller.

SPRAY APPLICATION:

Utilize a standard paint spray pump or airless spray pump. Equipment manufacturer should be consulted for

more complete information. Spray application should be done with a 50% over-spray pattern.

BRUSH/ ROLLER APPLICATION:

Brush / roller application should be done perpendicular to the first coat/base coat for proper protection.

ARCHITECTURALCOLORS:

White and gray are standard colors. Tan, PatinaGreen and Terra Cotta Red are available in quantities of 210

gallons minimum.

COVERAGE RATE:

Apply 501 Elasto-Brite at the rate of 1.5 gallons per 100 sq. ft. per coat in a two coat application for a total

coverage rate of 3 gallons per 100 sq.ft. Or apply one coat of 501 Elasto-Brite at the rate of 1.5 gallon per

100 sq. ft. overtop the previously applied Karnak base coat. This will achieve a dry mil thickness of 20 to

24 mils. Coverage will vary depending on the surface to be coated. Allow first coat to dry 4 to 12 hours

before application of the second coat. Apply when temperatures are 50ºF and rising but not over 100ºF. Do

not apply when rain is expected during or within 24 hours after application. Read the MSDS before using.
