Self-Adhesive Membrane  
   
Peel & Seal is a self-adhesive roofing / waterproofing membrane with a reflective aluminum surface. It's also available with a white or gray coating on the aluminum for aesthetic purposes. The membrane features multiple laminations of special aluminum foil, high-density polymer films and a thick layer of rubberized asphalt waterproofing compound. Peel & Seal may be used for roofing, waterproofing, patching and repair or any job requiring tough, weatherproof protection.

Peel & Seal is available in various widths from 4 inches to 36 inches. The narrow width rolls can be used for sealing, patching and repairing such as sealing seams on metal roofs and lining leaking gutters.
   
 
  MFM Tape
   
The 36 inch membrane is designed for full roof applications.

In the Lifespan house installation, Peel and Seal tape is stuck across the panel joints to keep out the rain if the roof covering is lost. The Peel & Seal tape seals the joints between the TechShield sheathing panels so rain won't run between them and into the house.

Peel & Seal reflects heat to keep interiors cool and to reduce utility bills. In fact, aluminum surfaced Peel & Seal has qualified for the U.S. EPA Energy Star program for roofs and carries a 10 year manufacturer's warranty.
