If you want to install or repair a Modified Bitumen Rubber Membrane, you need to know how to use a torch. One of the problems installing Modified Bitumen Torch Down Rubber is finding a good Torch mechanic. It takes some experience to run a torch. Everyone has their own style and techniques.
There are many ways to do a torch down roof. I have developed my own style. My son has his own style. He likes to round corners and use different torches for different applications. When you do detailed work around vents and drains, it is a good idea to use a smaller torch. I have 8 torches that I carry at all times. I only use one at a time.
