Sure you can use our comments. We used your product and loved it. You can add that we paid two grand to have the sliders caulked and they still leaked before using your product!! Took all the old caulk out and actually put the liquid butyl rubber in a 60ml syringe catheter tip and used it to pour a bead over the seam as it is hard to reach under the roof. We also found the leak was coming from the middle seam of the roof so all the caulk in the world would not have fixed it. We just ordered seven more gallons to paint the aluminum roof of the vehicle to keep heat out. The elastomeric paint we got from Lowes peeled off the first time we took the truck on the freeway.

I want to let you and anyone reading this know of my experience with Liquid Butyl Rubber. I'll tell you the end of the story and then go from there; FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!! (end of story!). I was pulling out of an RV slot that was a "pull thru" and found it wasn't quite a "pull thru!" The bubble/sky light over my shower was hit by a tree and while the bubble didn't break it did crack around the base. I attempted an unsuccessful repair and found it leaked terribly. I googled and searched for a fix and found EPDM Coatings.com. I was really skeptical and was honestly concerned that I would pay for a product and it either wouldn't work or I'd screw it up! Neither is true! IT IS SO EASY AND SO GREAT!!
I bought a one gallon Liquid Butyl Rubber kit. I reseated the bubble (did not buy a new one !!) painted Liquid Butyl Rubber around the entire base, placed the mesh material over the painted part and painted it again with the Liquid Butyl Rubber. I repaired the rubber roof areas around the bubble that had ripped and then used the remaining gallon to paint every penetration on the roof.
We had 2.5 inches of rain in San Antonio in January and NONE of it was in my RV thanks to Liquid Butyl Rubber. A couple of hints for anyone thinking about doing this; first DO IT!! IT WORKS!! AND IT'S EASY!! Next, before you start get some old clothes on, some rubber gloves and I would tape off the gutters so that it doesn't drip into the gutter. Overall this is a FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!!

Gentlemen:
In January we purchased your liquid butyl rubber material and applied it per your instructions. We wanted to wait a few months and we very impressed with the product and told several people about it. At the time I ordered I was told we would receive a $50.00 gift certificate for some before and after pictures which we have attached. The results speak for themselves.
We had been told by several RV shops that there was no other option than installing a new roof for approx $5,200.00 Your product was a real boon for us! Our motorhome is an an older model and we weren't willing to put that kind of money into it. So this remedy was great
Thank you

I ordered a gallon of Liquid Rubber last summer, and inquired if it could be spread with an adhesive applicator trowel; the sales person was not aware of this having been tried. I tried using a commercially available trowel with 4 sawtooth teeth per inch, and 0.135 inch notch depths, holding the trowel at about a 45 degree tilt. This worked great, and spread the liquid at exactly the recommended rate. The trowel is followed by a brush or roller to level the liquid.
My application is to repair the seams on an EPDM roof; the seams are weathering much faster than the roofing membrane. After wire brushing and vacuuming the areas to be repaired, the new coating is well adhered, smooth, and continuous, and, AFTER A YEAR AND A HALF THE ROOF LOOKS BRAND NEW! I just ordered two more gallons.

Mickey: I applied the liquid rubber to the roof of our camper and after a few minutes it started to bubble up. Whats going on? What do you guys think? EPDM Coatings: Thanks Mickey. Bubbling is normal. It is part of the curing process. Normally it will take anywhere from 5-10 days for all the bubbling to cure. Mickey: Hey, You were correct. I went on the roof this morning and was amazed. It looks great. Thanks for the help. The product is amazing!

Lou, I promised I would e-mail you guys what we thought of your product either way. Well I must say you were right about everything it claimed. We were more than pleased with the performance of the product. We were concerned with the cost but after seeing how thick it is and the fact that it required no primers or additional coats the cost actually was cheaper that other systems. We hired some general laborers to do the work and saved $3,500.00 to boot! Great service. We have another job coming up in May and we will definitely be reordering

In September we ordered the liquid butyl rubber from your company for our motorhome. Let me tell you, the liquid butyl rubber is a superior product, course you already know that. We just wanted to tell you that we are extremely satisfied with the performance of application and the final result. So far -so good

We had been looking for a roofing coating for some time. We ordered a gallon in the summer to test it out on our roof, part epdm and part metal. After our initial testing we were quite amazed with the performance of the product. This is the only product that had stopped our leak, and in fact the first time in 4 years the roof did not leak. We since then completed our entire roof and saved several thousand dollars by hiring some general laborers to apply the material along with some people who work in our warehouse. This is the first time that I took the time to write a compliment but you guys asked if the product did what it said it would to let us know so I am glad to do so. Great product and great customer service!

A friend of mine gave me a gallon of the Liquid Rubber he had left over after I complained to him about a chronic leak on my roof. Although my roofer did some patch work, I still had water coming in when the rain was heavy. Well I tried the Liquid Rubber in the area where the water was coming from.
That was six months ago. Today, all is dry. I have to thank my friend for introducing me to this great product.

Below are before and after photos on my recent installation of liquid butyl rubber. I am very pleased with the results. It was about three hours of work not including prep, but the results speak for themselves.
