Product Details: Brand: Sika | Product Type: Fibre-Reinforced Roof Repair Compound | Size: 5kg | Colour: White | Product Code: EVCWE5 | SKU: 484640 | MPN: 851555 | Barcode: 5029347600686

Sika Evercryl White 5kg is a ready-to-use resin-based roof repair compound for larger light-coloured roof repairs where a white visible finish is preferred. It suits planned patching work on lighter roof areas, gutters, flashings and roof details where black or grey repair coatings would stand out too strongly.

The white 5kg version gives this range a different use case from Black, Grey and Clear. It is best where a dark or grey repair would look too obvious and a lighter visible repair finish is needed. Compared with the smaller tins, the 5kg size is better for larger light-coloured repair areas or several roof details on the same job.

Best For Larger White And Light-Coloured Roof Repairs

Choose White 5kg where the repair area needs to stay visually lighter after coating. It is useful for larger white or pale roof details, exposed patch repairs, gutter edges, flashings and maintenance areas where a dark repair would look too heavy.

• Larger white or light-coloured roof patch repairs.
• Cracks, gaps and weak areas on suitable prepared roof surfaces.
• Gutters, downpipes, gullies and roofline details.
• Flashings, upstands, vents and leadwork.
• Several repair points where a white finish is preferred.
• Wet weather repair work where immediate waterproofing is needed.

Why Choose The 5kg White Version

The 5kg size is useful when there is too much work for a small tin but the repair still needs a clean white finish. It is the best colour choice in this range for light repair areas where black or grey would create a heavy visible patch.

Choose White for lighter visible repairs. Choose Black for dark felt and bitumen roofs, Grey for neutral visible patching, or Clear where a translucent finish is needed and fibre reinforcement is not required.

Where It Can Be Used

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.

• White or light-coloured visible roof repair areas.
• Small-to-medium roof leaks and waterproofing defects.
• Guttering, downpipes and gully repairs.
• Flashings, upstands, vents and leadwork.
• Metal, slate, tile, concrete and prepared 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 white 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 White 5kg

White 5kg is best for larger waterproofing repairs where the finished repair needs to stay lighter in appearance. It gives a different finish choice from Black and Grey, while still providing fibre-reinforced roof repair support.

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