One of the keys to the successful application of GRR Flood Coat is a clean substrate through the use of RK Hydro-Vac's "Wet Vac" process. This process not only removes loose gravel, it also cleans the surface in one-step, saving time and labor expense.

This month I wanted to share with you an article from a top industry journal in the UK that highlighted the job you would be familiar with from the June edition of our newsletter.  The faux lead roof we created for a local church community center has been getting a lot of attention recently.  So much so that Professional Builder Magazine sought us out for the attached article and photo spread.  What began as our team solving a problem for a local contractor has turned into an opportunity for a "cottage" industry as we continue to look for new and innovative ways to bring Sealoflex products to the marketplace.  As you read the article, I'm sure you will see similarities to your own business. Perhaps you'll even be inspired to think "outside the box" and we'd love to hear your ideas.  We continue to push heavily into the maintenance and repair segment and that has proven most advantageous for Sealoflex in Europe.  I trust it will do the same for you in the U.S.

Keeping my finger on the pulse of our company and staying in touch with industry trends is a primary focus of my position.  Additionally, there are factors I see every day that let me know just where Sealoflex contributes within our industry. As such, it is important that we all gauge the state of the economy and conditions in which we are working.  But what really helps me form my opinions is the number of buckets going out the door.  Our numbers are on an upswing; meaning more and more of you are on the job and don't have as much time to read newsletters.  Therefore, in the interest of your time and ours, we decided to change the delivery date of our newsletter to a quarterly communication.  This allows us to provide even more detailed content, more in depth articles, and minimize the time you will need to get this valuable information.  The newsletter continues to be a most valuable communication tool and you can rest assured the cost saving and business building opportunities will continue to be available.  Remember to check our website for past issues of our newsletter.  We are here for you and I am truly delighted to see more and more of you getting back to business as usual.  

 

Until October -

 
Anne

My comments this month are primarily to our loyal contractors to whom we are very appreciative. 

This is a reminder that your "Approved Applicator" status needs to be renewed every two years.  You might ask what this requires.  There is one primary requirement and that is for you to attend a refresher training within two years following your initial or previous training.
 
To find the next possible training near you, please go to http://www.sealoflex.com/training.  This will provide you with a list of scheduled training events.  To register, just click on the event you would like to attend, then print, complete and submit the registration form.  If you do not see a training scheduled near you, call you local Sealoflex representative or speak to your distributor and express your desire to have a training in your area.
 
The "Approved Applicator" status is necessary to obtain a warranty from Sealoflex.  In the very near future, we will be providing those who have completed our training seminar with a Sealoflex "Approved Applicator" decal.  This will have a clear background, so it can be applied on the window or body of your vehicle.  It will contain the Sealoflex logo, the Sealoflex website, and the words "Approved Applicator".
 
Again, thanks for all you do and your use of Sealoflex
products.

Sealodeck is a great transparent Water proofer and UV protector for wood.  Don't let the name fool you, it can be used on more than just decks.  Around my house it is used on a wooden privacy fence, boat dock, and of course my deck.  It can be used on most wooden surfaces that need years of protection from the elements, especially ultraviolet rays from the sun. 

Sealodeck is easy to apply.  Make sure the surface is clean; this may be achieved by power washing or using a mild detergent.  When the surface is completely dry, Sealodeck can be applied by brush, nap roller or low pressure sprayer.  Make sure the Sealodeck should be stirred well before use.  Fully saturate the surface, however do not let it puddle and do not over apply. Brush or roll any small pockets and/ore puddles of Sealodeck for even distribution.  Two (2) coats are required, with a coverage rate of approximately 100 sq.ft. per gallon. This includes both coats.
 
Sealodeck should not be used for surfaces that are painted or may be painted.
