Super Silicone Seal has been formulated to protect all roofs against heat and ultraviolet. This product will adhere to Metal, Modified Bitumen, EPDM Rubber, and TPO.
A roller, brush, airless sprayer can be used to apply Super Silicone Seal. When used in conjunction with polyester fleece, Super Silicone Seal can be used as a flashing detail or seam repair.
Watch this video made by Flat Roof Doctor on how to apply Super Silicone Seal over seams and also painting an EPDM Rubber.
Here are some specs of Super Silicone Seal:
The repair of seams, cracks and flashing with Super Silicone Seal
- Use a steel wire brush to scrub the surface. (remove dust)
- Use masking tape to tape off 21/2″ from either side of seam or crack (optional, but looks clean when done)
- Measure and cut the correct length of fleece
- Brush 1 thick coat either the Turbo Poly Seal or Super Silicone Seal on both sides of crack or seam
- Embed the polyester fleece into the freshly painted coat (make sure there are no wrinkles)
- Apply another coat over the fleece making sure the fiber doesn’t show
- Remove the masking tape
Picture Instructions on how to make flashing repair with Super Silicone Seal:
- Start by using masking tape to mark the area where the Super Silicone Seal flashing detail will be done. Clean the surface area with a rag.
2. Measure and cut to size the polyester fleece to be installed with Super Silicone Seal
3. Apply the first coat by using a brush of Super Silicone Seal over the pipe and roof area.
4. Cut tabs into the Super Silicone Fleece about 2 inches long.
5. Install Fleece around the pipe with tabs spread around lying flat on the roof.
6. Apply a final coat of Super Silicone Seal covering the fleece completely
7. Repairing a seam on an EPDM Rubber Roof with Super Silicone Seal. Tape off area to avoid spillover
8. Apply a thick coat of Super Silicone Seal covering more than 2 inches either side of EPDM Rubber Seam
9. Install a fleece and then paint a final coat of Super Silicone Seal covering the fleece
10. Remove the masking tape immediately after completing the coating of Super Silicone Seal
11. The Super Silicone Seal will be touch dry after 30 min but need another 24 hours to cure.
My situation: The house has a pitched, ribbed, metal roof. A brick chimney, which is framed all around with plywood siding, rises up through the rooftop. Rain water is leaking through the roof where the metal sheets abutt the wooden chimney box (water coming through between the metal and wooden box, where the metal meets the wood). The metal roof is pitched, but the framed wooden chimney box is vertical.
I plan to apply a sandwiched coating of Super Silicone Seal and fleece fabric along the metal-to-wood joint, around all 4 sides of the chimney box. My concerns:
1) will Super Silicone Seal adhere to the plywood siding of the chimney box?
2) will Super Silicone Seal stand up to hot summertime temps of ~ 125*F (4 months per year), and how many years can I reasonably expect the repair to last?
3) is this the correct way to go at this repair? I had originally planned to use Poly Turbo Seal; however, Henry’s #884 silicone roof sealant has already been applied to the leaking joint and I understand Poly Turbo Seal will not adhere to silicone. So, I plan to apply Super Silicone Seal instead.
Please advise. I learned of Bergmann Industries while watching Roof Doctor’s excellent YouTube videos. – Thanks
Is it true that Turbo Poly Seal will not adhere to silicone? Someone has done silicone repairs in the past on my metal pitched roof and I’m looking to go over them with one of the products.
Yes, I don’t know of a product that will adhere to silicone
can we use for metal panel roof.
we need to stop leaking from metal roof. also apply sealing after painting another color ?
Yes you can
I am removing a stove pipe ona 1yr old metal roof in the FL Keys on a property on the beach (high winds and salt water and heavy sunshine). I plan to seal the hole with a galvanized metal piece and crew it into the existing roof and cover the seams with super silicone seal and the fleece material. Will this work for a long term solution in my harsh environment. Thx.
Yes absolutely. Super Silicone is the way too go
I have the exact issue as Konrad. Can I color the super silicone somehow to match my roof? My 3 season room is almond and I too bought the eternabond but haven’t applied it yet. The eternabond exactly matches the color of the roof but looks like the super silicone is only available in white. How would you color the silicone base to match? Thanks
I have not tried this but I think if you get some Kilz or Binz primer and spray that on the Super Silicone Seal, then you might be able to paint the color you want.
I have a leaky sun room metal roof. The room is 20 years old. I believe rain water penetrates the seams that connect the 4’x 8′ pre-fab roof sections. The seams are connected by metal rails which are gobbed up with caulk from previous repair attempts by the installer. So rather than stripping away the old caulk which might do more harm than good, I have to cover over it.
After watching your flat roof videos on You-Tube, my approach will be to scrape away the paint on the roof along side the seams and put down an initial coating of super silicone over the metal rail and caulk The next step will be to cover the super silicone with a layer of a ‘Eternabond”flexible membrane which I already have on hand. Then I will cover the Eternabond with a final layer of super silicone.
Is this 3-step approach the way to go? Should I use your gauze rather than the Eternabond?
You make a mistake to try a new method. Eternabond is the biggest garbage in my opinion. I think you need to decide the proper method and stick to it.
Eterna Bond as a plastic tape that protects the guuiee stuff but then the plastic will break up and everything will go bad.
The best is the prep well and then either use Turbo Poly Seal or Super Silicone Seal to cover the seams along with the polyester fleece
I have approximately 24 linear feet where two sections of metal roof meet. The junction was not flashed (big mistake) but was “siliconed” and leaks like a sieve. I plan to remove the old silicone with a wire brush, clean with mineral spirits and try the Super Silicone Seal with the polyester fleece. Is this the correct approach? Also, how much of the product will I need? And, how long an area should I apply the silicone seal before applying the polyester fleece such that it doesn’t “set” before applying the fleece?
Thanks.
I have a flat EPDM rubber roof with a deck on top and a garage under. Where you exit the house to go onto the deck there is an open area about 6 foot square without deck covering. This is the area where the leaks are. There are several leaks from what I can see all are where the seams and previous patches are. I seem to re-patch every 2 – 3 years and sometimes the new patch / sealing only lasts a few months. I would like a solution more permanent. Not forever but longer in time. I should add that the “open area” after a rain, has standing water until the sun evaporates it away. Sometimes it takes a couple of days to have the area get dry. Will the silicone seal hold under water? One more thing I live in Minnesota. Summers get 100 degrees plus and winters -20 degrees. Will this withstand the temperature range? Any local suppliers or have to have it shipped.
Hey Tim – Super Silicone Seal is perfect for what you want to do. I recommend that you remove all the patches first. Use lacquer thinners to remove old adhesives and then apply the Super Silicone Seal with the fleece over the seams.
We live in norther Minnesota where the temperatures range from 100 in the summer to -40 in the winter.
Multiple skylights in the roof and some are now leaking. Is the Super Silicone Seal the right product or the Super Poly Seal?? I have seen YouTube videos using the Poly Seal but your product description says Silicone Seal…
Yes Super Silicone Seal will do the job. You will be very happy with that. In the 35 years I have been in roofing, I have never had a product like Super Silicone Seal that can seal skylights. It is just amazing.
Can super silicone Seal be used on chimney crown since it’s supposed to last longer.
Absolutely. It is really an amazing product. We will release a video soon to show what it looks like after 2 years. it is amazing
Two questions:
1. I have a flat rubber roof over the porch. There is a small area needs to be sealed. The Super Silicone Seal seems perfect for that. That area is also lower than the surrounding area with water pooling after heaving rain. I would like to know if I could apply SSS to that area and built it up layer after layer to level the ground.
2. The root also needs to be coated. I was wondering if I can use the same Super Silicone Seal to coat the whole roof or I should use something like Liquid Rubber to coat it.
Thank you.
Yes, Super Silicone is excellent for what you want to do
I have a seal that is coming apart around bottom of sky light. (wear shingles meet the skylight) Would super silicone or the turbo poly seal be best and why?
Not clear what seal on what part of the skylight. Is it the gasket that seals the glass and the metal frame? Then you need to use Super Silicone Seal. Use sand paper to rough the glass up a little.
Can turbo poly seal be used on cast iron bollards to seal pit holes
Yes
Half of barn rubber roof with one sky light is leaking . Two feet below it water puddles just before it suppose to run off roof. Where do I apply the super silicon product? A small water spot is now showing on inside room?
Hi Janet
Take pictures of your situation and send it to me. I will then be able to give you better advice as what to do.
The number to send it to is 203 858 0080
Will Super Silicone Seal adhere to BLACK JACK Eterna-Kote 4.75-Gallon Silicone Reflective Roof Coating? The Eterna-Kote was put on a roof but there are places I would like to repair with the Super Silicone Seal. Thanks in advance.
As long as your surface you are applying too is secure and not flaking or peeling, Super Silicone Seal will adhere to it
Is the Super Silicone Seal safe and/or FHA(federal housing authority) approved?
Do you offer any discounts on pricing?
No, we have not gone through any governmental test to get their approval.
We barely make any profit on the product due to the high expense of manufacturing, therefore we can’t afford to give any discounts.
What are the steps for applying Turbo Seal to a stone chimney that has a lip of TPO and copper flashing?
Flashing has previously leaked. Chimney crown was repaired and mortar fixed.
What other products do we need?
Very hard to imagine the problem you are experiencing. The best is to send pictures of the provlem you are describing tom my cell phone and then I would be able to help you better. 203 858 0080
I need to patch a leak in my roof that was previously coated with elastrometric paint.
Will super seal stick to it? Also it’s highs in the 40’s right now and possible 30 at night, can I still use this or will it not set up enough before nightfall and cold?
Yes it will adhere to elastomeric paint. Temperatures are no issues applying Super Silicone Seal
Hi
I have a problem. My stone deck is leaking because the guy did not use proper cement to lay the stone and also the grout in between was not used. they used cement to gout and its leaking below. Need help.
Thank you
You better off to rip up everything and start over again. To lay down stone up in the north where freezing weathers occur is asking for trouble. Water should be able to drain down between the stone work where a roof membrane catches the water and leads it out to a gutter.
Look at Pedestal Systems.
Can I use Super Seal for cracks in a vinyl material roof (Londeck) and then use a coating (like Henry’s Silicone) over the Super Seal?
You can, but I don’t understand why would you use another product to go over it again?
I have learned a lot from you Naasfer Thank You
We have a 107 yr old original metal shingles roof. It is great condition except for oxidation from former cedar tree acidic droppings. No leaks @ all. BUT the addition that replaced the ‘sleeping porch’ (GA) roof leaks @ the join. It not only leaks where the ceiling joins the former outer brick wall but some has run down the slope to the windows loosening the joint tape + we have a small hole where it leaks in the adjoining kitchen ceiling.
We want to use (have someone else do…we’re 80) the Super Silicone Seal kit to patch the joint/leak source.
A few ?s
? Can it be painted after (we have to have the shingled roof cleaned & reflective paint used) it cures ?
? How should we instruct the handyman to proceed?
? Are there specific instructions available?
We are not able to personally inspect to see if the addition is on top of OR under the shingled roof. My ignorant guess is that it’s more likely over the shingles (that seems to me to be a more likely leaky situation).
Thanks for your help…Stay Safe, Stay Well!

Hi
Use Turbo Poly Seal to have the repairs made. Then after it is touch dry in a few hours, paint it with an oil-based primer and then a final coat
I have a deck on a sloped roof can I use SSS on wooden 4×4 posts to seal top and sides of wood and feather it onto rubber roof flashing to better seal around the posts?
yes, I did that many times and it works great
hi can i apply your product on silicon paint one layer then put the felt then paint another layer of your product
I think that is what the videos show. Can you imagine you can’t see what the videos show, what if it was only written instructions, no visuel
Hi Naas, we do waterproofing in South Africa. We would love to know if it would be possible to import and use your products here?
Hey Ruben
There are products that are exactly the same as ours made in South Africa and is much cheaper
Hi Naas,
Thank you for the response. Also, I would like to thank you for the insightful knowledge that you share, we love watching your videos.
May you perhaps know which company sells similar products? We currently use EPDM rubber heavy duty bitumen (water-based) to carry out most of our jobs. But the one product that really fascinates us, is the Super Silicone Seal, we haven’t been able to find a similar product here in South Africa and if you know of someone that supplies these, will you kindly let me know, please?
Hey Ruben.
Wat ek kan se is om vir enige silicone produk te soek en dit probeer.
Welcome
Kind of a flat roof
Converting a bus to an rv. Rivet line between front cap which is fibreglass to roof panel which is steel or aluminium has a small leak and n it somewhere. Can I seal the joint with silicone super seal or the poly seal? Roof is white so super seal would be better. Are they paintable?
Thanks. Great videos
Super Silicone is not paintable but Turbo is
