Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

This is the adhesive to specify for TPO membrane and flashing bonding where VOC rules apply, and it also serves EPDM/TPO applications per the listing. Follow the manufacturer’s spread rate and flash-off times, and check the cold-weather bulletin when ambient conditions drop. Match pail count to your membrane rolls so bonding is not interrupted mid-wall or mid-field.

Solvent-based adhesives are flammable and produce vapors: work with ventilation, eliminate ignition sources, and follow the SDS and applicable safety regulations.
