Sika Evercryl Grey 5kg is a ready-to-use resin-based roof repair compound for larger neutral-coloured roof repairs where a grey visible finish is suitable. It is useful for planned patching on mixed roof surfaces, leadwork, concrete details, flashings and repair areas where black may look too heavy and white may look too bright.

The grey 5kg version sits between the darker Black and lighter White options. It is best for neutral patch repairs, mixed roof details and visible waterproofing work where the repair does not need to be hidden but should avoid a strong black or bright white finish.

Best For Larger Visible Grey Roof Repairs

Choose Grey 5kg for larger roof repairs where a neutral grey finish makes more sense than black, white or clear. It suits practical patching around leadwork, concrete, roof edges, flashings, vents, gutters and mixed repair areas where a balanced visible finish is preferred.

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

Why Choose The 5kg Grey Version

The 5kg tin is the better choice for small-to-medium roof maintenance jobs where a 1kg or 2.5kg tin may run short. It suits broader local roof repairs, longer detail areas and planned patching where a visible grey finish is suitable.

Choose Grey where crack bridging and a visible neutral finish are more important than hiding the repair. Choose Black for dark bitumen and felt surfaces, White for lighter roof areas, or Clear where a translucent finish is required and fibre reinforcement is not needed.

Key Benefits

• Grey Fibre-Reinforced Repair: Helps bridge small cracks and strengthen local roof repair areas.
• Instant Waterproofing: Designed to provide immediate water protection after application.
• Wet Or Dry Use: Can be applied in damp, wet and suitable frosty conditions.

• Visible Grey Finish: Suitable where the repair does not need to be hidden.
• Brush Applied: Designed for straightforward application after preparation.
• Flexible Membrane: Dries to a seamless flexible waterproof coating.

Where It Can Be Used

Sika Evercryl Grey can be used for general sealing, repair, maintenance and waterproofing of many common roof surfaces in wet or dry conditions. It is suitable for local repairs on concrete, fibre cement, roofing felt, mastic asphalt, existing bituminous roof coatings, rigid uPVC, corrugated iron, metals, slates, brickwork, tiles, lead, copper and zinc.

• Visible grey roof patch repairs.
• Small-to-medium roof leaks and waterproofing defects.
• Guttering, downpipes and gully repairs.
• Flashings, upstands, vents and leadwork.
• Metal, slate, tile, concrete and bitumen roof details.

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 grey 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 Grey 5kg

Grey 5kg is best for larger visible roof repair work where a neutral grey waterproof finish is suitable. It is a practical middle-ground colour choice between Black, White and Clear, especially on mixed roof areas where the repair can stay visible but should not look too dark or too bright.

• Choose Grey 5kg: For larger neutral-coloured patch repairs, leadwork, concrete details and mixed roof surfaces.
• Choose Black 5kg: For darker felt, bitumen and black roof areas.
• Choose White 5kg: For lighter or white visible repair areas.
• Choose Clear 5kg: For translucent repairs where fibre reinforcement is not required.
