  • Metal Weld Sealant
  • Source: Journal of Light Construction 11/18/2009
  • Titebond WeatherMaster Metal Roof Sealant is based on the adhesive that car manufacturers use to join metal auto-body panels in spots where rivets would be too unsightly, says the maker. It can be applied in temperatures as low as 0 degrees F, fills gaps up to 1 inch wide, adheres to Kynar-coated roofs, and can be painted three hours after application. Sold in 50 standard colors, the adhesive has a low enough VOC content to meet the requirements of most green building programs, says the company. It forms a permanent chemical bond with the metal, so spills should be wiped up before drying. A 10-ounce cartridge costs 5.50 to 6 dollars. 800-669-4583. More
