Abstract: A method for applying a roofing membrane may include unrolling an adhesive material onto a roofing board to adhere a bottom surface of the adhesive material to the roofing board. The method may include removing a release liner from the adhesive material to expose a top surface of the adhesive material. The method may include applying a roofing membrane to the exposed top surface of the adhesive material to adhere the roofing membrane to the roofing board.

Abstract: A method for preparing an adhesive at a jobsite may include introducing a pre-packaged quantity of adhesive additive components to a volume of a solvent. The method may include introducing a pre-packaged quantity of adhesive filler components to the volume of the solvent. The method may include mixing the volume of the solvent to disperse the adhesive additive components and the adhesive filler components within the volume of the solvent to produce an adhesive.

Abstract: A roofing membrane includes a waterproofing layer, and a release liner removably attached to the waterproofing membrane. The release liner has a coefficient of friction greater than the coefficient of friction of the material of the waterproofing membrane. The release liner is preferably left in place after initial installation of the roofing membrane on a roof, and removed near the end of construction, so that the waterproofing membrane is at least partially protected from damage and dirt during later parts of the construction.
