I had a architect ask me about using this in a combustible church attic. I was skeptical and did a little investigating. The tests that produced the results had a minimum film thickness in order to work properly. How do you verify the minimum thickness in a field application? My guess is that the tests shown (by UL Canada only) were not done on assembled structures, but on individual pieces of material that were coated under near ideal conditions. What would happen in a structure coated after assembly? Why is there no UL -United States or FM tests? Too many questions for me; I'd walk away. (So did the architect referenced above)
