So what I don't understand is this. When they said "Intermediate Step

seal all joints" do they mean they seal the edge of each tile? So that
there is no water to go under any tile? and 40 mils of all 3 coasts is

very
thick! This is like covering the roof completely with one continuous
layer...right?

I think you're on the right track

far as one continuous layer..

i don't see the need

2 things

right! I agree.. 3mil is thick
second, why not just goback to your original plan of sealing the
concrete

you're not looking to waterproof the roof, just seal the concrete

sealers are super thin and soak into the block..
**** all that prep ****.. i mean sure.. remove leaves and sticks and
stuff.

crete sealers have a watery property.. hell! spray it on!

why not just tint the sealer.. make several applications and be done
with it.

try to match the old color.


you mean concrete sealer?

like:

58 Benjamin Moore Architectural Coatings Concrete Stain 072-01

or

58 Benjamin Moore Architectural Coatings Concrete Waterproofing Sealer
075-01

something like that?

Thanks,

MC
