The ideal product temperature at the
time of application should be 75°F
(24°C). The minimum ambient and
surface temperatures must be 33°F
(0.6°C) and rising. INSTA-STIK is
packaged in a single container that
should be stored between 50°F (10°C)
and 75°F (24°C). At these
temperatures, the shelf life is 15 months
from the date of manufacture.
SAFETY
When dispensing INSTA-STIK, the
applicator must wear protective clothing,
work gloves, and protective eyewear.
SURFACE PREPARATION
All surfaces must be free of any ice,
snow, frost, debris, dirt, dust, grease,
oil, diesel fuel and standing water before
INSTA-STIK is applied.
Re-Cover Over Bituminous Asphalt

A licensed INSTA-STIK instructor,
authorized to perform adhesion tests,
must be on site prior to the
commencement of the project to
determine compatibility. Please contact
Duro-Last ES department at least
fourteen (14) days in advance for
further instructions.
STEEL DECK
The upper flange of the steel deck must
be free of any debris, dirt, dust, grease,
oil, diesel fuel, standing water, ice, snow
or frost. On new steel, the residual
shop-oil coatingmust be removed using
Red Devil TSP90 or equivalent,
acetone, naphtha, or comparable
cleaner.
INSULATION
Review the roofing insulation plan. The
roof insulation boards to be attached
must be no larger than 4' × 4' (1.2 m ×
1.2 m). In multiple layers of insulation,
the staggered joint method must be
used to eliminate thermal breaks.
PRODUCT & EQUIPMENT
INSTALLATION
lNSTA-STIK Professional Roof
Insulation Adhesive should be mixed
prior to use by firmly holding the
container on its side and agitating the
contents using a side-to-side motion for
at least 15 seconds. Attach the
dispensing hose swivel end to the
cylinder valve. Tighten the connection
using an open-end wrench being careful
not to over tighten. Verify that the on/off
valve on the dispensing hose is closed.
The handle should be perpendicular to
the valve. Attach the dispensing wand
kit to the brass valve by screwing it in
until it is hand tight. The dispensing
wand kit is recommended for roof decks
with many penetrations or confined
areas.
IMPORTANT: When applying
INSTA-STIK, the insulation boards must
be placed onto the INSTA-STIK beads
within 5 minutes. Walk on the boards to
spread the beads for maximum contact.
Continue to walk on the insulation
boards every 5-7 minutes until the
insulation is firmly attached, usually
15-45 minutes.
