roof coating, elastomeric conflex by Sherwin Williams
My coating has hundreds of blisters on it, and the contractor doesn't know exactly why. Can someone give me some possible reasons to look for?

The roof is poly foam, the coating is an elastomeric coating called conflex, by sherwin williams. It was applied without a primer, with an airless sprayer. The contractor is cutting all the bad places out, priming the spots and recoating them with the same coating. No one can tell me why this happened in the first place nor if it is going to continue happening. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |

It may be that the coating was applied over moisture. Bare puf does not dry off as fast as a preprimed foam would. |

There can be a lot of reasons why your having blister issues with an acrylic. Was it a dark color sprayed on a super hot day? If so, the coating filmed (cured), over and trapped moisture under the film, not allowing the water to evap out correctly. Are they little dime/quarter sized areas? |
