Product Details: Brand: Sika | Product Type: Fibre-Reinforced Roof Repair Compound | Size: 2.5kg / 2.5 Litre Tin | Colour: Black | Product Code: EVCBK02 | SKU: 484619 | MPN: 851572 | Barcode: 5029347600969

Sika Evercryl Black 2.5kg is a ready-to-use resin-based roof repair compound for dark roof maintenance, black felt repairs and bitumen-style waterproofing work. It is designed for jobs where the repair needs to blend into a darker surface while still giving instant water protection when applied.

The black version is best suited to darker roof surfaces, bitumen coatings, felt roofs and repair areas where a black patch will blend better than grey. The 2.5kg tin gives more working material than the 1kg size, making it a stronger choice for several repair points, repeat maintenance jobs or larger local roof defects.

Best For Black Felt And Bitumen Roof Repairs

Choose the black version when the repair is being made on a dark roof surface or where a black waterproof coating will look more natural. It is a practical choice for felt laps, bitumen-coated roof sections, black roof edges, gutters, flashings and maintenance work across several problem areas.

• Black felt roof repairs and bitumen roof details.
• Cracks, gaps and weak areas on suitable dark roof surfaces.
• Gutters, downpipes, gullies and roofline details.
• Flashings, upstands, vents and leadwork.
• Several small leaks or repeated local roof repair points.
• Wet weather repair work where immediate waterproofing is needed.

Why Choose The 2.5kg Black Version

The 2.5kg size is the better choice when a 1kg tin may not be enough. It suits jobs where there are several roof details to treat, more than one leak to patch or a larger repair area around gutters, flashings or roof edges.

Choose Black where the surface is dark, bituminous or felt-based and a grey patch would stand out too much. For lighter roof areas or where a grey finish is preferred, choose the Grey 2.5kg version instead.

• Metal, slate, tile, concrete and bitumen roof details.
• Several local repairs where the 1kg tin would be too small.

How To Apply

Always read the current Sika product data sheet and safety data sheet before use. The roof should be checked first, because no coating product should be relied on to repair a roof that is not structurally sound or stable.

• Inspect the roof: Replace or refix broken, slipped, cracked or missing tiles, slates, sheets or roof coverings before applying the compound.
• Prepare the surface: Remove loose debris, dirt, dust, grease, algae, fungal growth and unstable material from the repair area.
• Prime where needed: Sound non-porous surfaces may not need primer, but porous, friable or difficult surfaces should be primed with a compatible bitumen and flashing primer.
• Stir before use: Stir the product well before applying.
• Apply by brush: Apply the black Evercryl with a brush, working it into cracks, gaps and surrounding repair areas.
• Use one coat where suitable: Evercryl is designed as a one-coat repair compound, but extreme cases may need a second coat after the first coat has dried sufficiently.
• Allow to cure: The coating is instantly waterproof when applied, but full drying depends on temperature, coating thickness and site conditions.

Choosing Black, Grey Or 1kg

This Black 2.5kg version is best for dark roof repairs and bitumen-style finishes where several repair areas need to be treated. It gives more coverage than the 1kg tin while staying manageable for smaller maintenance jobs.

• Choose Black 2.5kg: For dark felt, bitumen, black roof details and several local waterproofing repairs.
• Choose Grey 2.5kg: For visible grey repairs, lighter roof details and grey patching work.
• Choose 1kg: For one small leak or a very small local patch repair.
• Choose larger sizes: For broader roof sections, repeated trade use or larger maintenance work.
