Cromar liquid roof membrane

I’m not sure what you mean by liquid membrane. They do a liquid rubber, elastathane and the cromapol.

Oh Yes I've finished a Flat roof with the stuff.
Stripped the old and badly worn felt off first.
What is the roof material under the felt? Does it has any bitumen between felt and roof?
Read the guidance notes first. You can apply it with a brush but I'd suggest spreading with a trowel may be quicker and easier to get the required thickness of material. You may need the promer/sealer first. Try and get the required thickness in one coat.

Yes cromapol is good. Cheaper than acropolis does the same job.
It's all Greek to me
As far as I'm concerned its just another nasty polluting
product from the petro-chemical industries that should be banned.

Notwithstanding catlad's aversion, you might care to have a read through my thread (i.e. ikopro liquid + reinforcing membrane)

I used it ok you need to make sure all gravel if on is swept back and you will use lot off it it dont go far , we used bitumin primer first with little more white spirit it soaks into every crevis as its thin then let dry hour depending on temp , and the Acropol or what ever brand sticks like preverbial Sh to a blanket , any breaks tears go over it on the item and overlap 4 inch or more build up ,
But yes always But if you have time and want 100% job rip off the felt buy rubber type roofing EDPM go on you tube watch the videos its so easy and last 50 years if do it rite , I did kitchen roof and lad who works for me done loads now after watching me do it , I only watched video then common sense .
think got it from roofing super store but ebay full of it Firestone was market leader but now loads brands .
but the Acropol last maybe 5 years then look again see if any top up needed
