THE END OF DROOL
Typical "peel-and-stick" flashings have a black rubberized-asphalt component that can drool or leach out to the exterior of the building in warm temperatures if not precisely installed. This can leave unsightly marks on the exterior of the building that are difficult to remove.
THE SOLUTION: HOHMANN & BARNARD'S FLEX-FLASH™
FLEX-FLASH™ has a pressure-sensitive, clear adhesive that will not drool when exposed to UV or heat.
Moisture infiltration can occur at sills, projections, recesses, intersections and mortar joints. The solution begins with proper flashing. Hohmann & Barnard's FLEX-FLASH is a 40-mil thick product formulated with Elvaloy® Kee. FLEX-FLASH does not drool and combines the best features of other types of flashing, making it a truly superior product. Other features include:
Extremely tough, with excellent impact and tear resistance
Maintains flexibility in extreme heat or cold weather environments
Highly resistant to oils and will repel most chemicals
Suitable for thru-wall or surface-mount applications
Compatible with most silicone and urethane sealants
