Silicone C
Silicone system for use over concrete roofs
System Overview
The durable Silicone C system is comprised of our 7860-LO series low-odor silicone roof coating. 7860-LO series is a single-component, low-odor, room-temperature vulcanizing, weather-protective coating; it is Energy Star and Cool Roof Ratings Council (CRRC) approved, and meets LEED requirements (see the 7860-LO Product Data Sheet for LEED details).
Silicone C forms a seamless, monolithic weatherproofing membrane for superior waterproofing, durability, flexibility, color retention and potential energy savings. Silicone technology allows the system to perform under ponding water conditions. It is intended for long-term protection for institutional, commercial, industrial, and high-rise/multi-family residential applications.

Technical Documents
Is a moisture analysis required prior to the installation of Silicone C?
A moisture analysis is not required but highly recommended prior to the start of work. Neogard recommends a mat test for concrete surfaces.
What warranties are available for Silicone C?
We offer Material Only and Labor/Material Warranties for 10, 15, and 20 year terms.
Do you have to be an approved applicator to install Neogard warranted systems?
You do not have to be an approved applicator to purchase material and receive a Material Warranty. You must be a Certified Applicator to receive a Labor/Material Warranty.
You can trust Silicone C in your next project
High-performance protection tested under the harshest environments. Silicone C was developed to form a seamless, monolithic weatherproofing membrane for superior waterproofing, durability, flexibility, color retention and potential energy savings.
