Sealing around skylights with WELDANO INVEX 3D


1. Preparation
Remove any dirt present on the surface of SOLITEX WELDANO 3000 by wiping with a cloth, for example. Adhesion to frozen membranes is not possible.
There must be no water-repellent substances (e.g. grease or silicone) on the membranes. Subsurfaces must be sufficiently dry and stable.

2. Cut to size
Cut WELDANO INVEX 3D down to the required strip length.

3. Weld the 3D sealing strips to the membrane
Weld the two lower WELDANO INVEX 3D sealing strips to the underlay membrane using either the WELDANO TURGA (HS) solvent welding agent or else hot air welding.
The effective joint width (area covered with solvent welding agent) must be at least 5 cm (2") wide and must extend as far as the edge of WELDANO INVEX 3D. Use a roller to secure the welded joints.
Then install the two upper WELDANO INVEX 3D strips in the same way.

4. Weld the overlaps
Weld four overlap joints between the individual WELDANO INVEX 3D sealing strips using either the WELDANO TURGA (HS) solvent welding agent or else hot air welding.

5. Cut the upper edge to size and connect
Cut any excess material flush with the upper edge of the frame. Seal the WELDANO INVEX 3D sealing strips to the skylight frame using TESCON VANA.
