The Mini Mopper blends the precision flow control of a small mopper with the carrying capacity of a large one. Screw-in plugs, on 1" centers, give the operator complete application control-simply remove more plugs to increase the area of coverage... A consistent coat of hot seals the quality of a well-built roof. No mop and bucket can match the speed and consistency of this low-cost durable all-steel dispenser. Whether you’re laying base sheet, insulation, felts or graveling-in, the Mini Mopper can fit the bill. 4, record 1, English, - mini%2Dmop

La rigidité de l'étanchéité multicouche nécessite un tasseau biseauté à la base du parapet afin de soutenir le solin au tournant du coin. Les feutres du solin sont prolongés par-dessus le parapet. Une attention particulière doit être apportée lors de l'épandage du bitume sur les feutres afin d'éviter d'endommager le revêtement du mur extérieur. Les feutres secs ne sont pas étanches à l'eau et ne peuvent empêcher les infiltrations d'eau dans le parapet. 2, record 2, French, - %C3%A9pandage

Les applications à froid d'émulsions d'asphalte et de brai de houille constituent des méthodes d'emploi du bitume qui semblent offrir quelques avantages sur les procédés classiques de bitumage à chaud des toitures. [...] l'émulsion d'asphalte est appliquée à la brosse sur la chape de base. Un canevas très lâche de fibres de verre est ensuite soumis à un brossage qui l'enrobe dans l'émulsion. On ajoute à la brosse une nouvelle couche d'émulsion qui forme le revêtement final. 2, record 3, French, - balai%20%C3%A0%20franges
