I found out that the geocel proflex, or geocel 2300 in caulk tubes, is useable down to 0 degrees F, and can be applied through standing water....

geocel 2310 is a similar product, but brushable, in a can

geocel 2315 is fiber reinforced, and according to a local roofing company, can have fiber mesh embedded in it....

I have a small roof leak, when I pulled down the wet ceiling panel, I thought I was going to find the small hole we had sealed last summer with geocel had not held....good news....it had held, unfortunately, the roof had a dip in it and standing water had weakened the metal... it is cracked...shoot shoot shoot

So, I will probably be bracing up the roof to get the dip out, go up and scrape the area, use geocel and the sealant, and put on a galvanized metal pack, seal the edges, and roof coat again come warmer weather.... the roof is coated with silver kool coat.

2 foot of snow this month.... new record for Cincinnati, one we could have lived without.
