Looks like good stuff. Do they glue down the cloth & then roll or spray on the liquid? My roof is still good but it's about 14 years old now and will need replacing at some point.
If your existing roof is still in relatively good shape they can apply right over it and get the same results. My roof rubber was in very poor shape for several reasons so I elected to have it torn off and go from there.
Before putting the fabric down, the tech rolled a coat of the same material as they use for the final coat. He then carefully laid down the fabric and then rolled two more coats of the liquid material on top and he was done. The whole process took three long days and with about one day being used to take off the old rubber and all the things attached.
The nice thing about the whole process is that he came to our family campground located in the middle of a national forest and quite a ways from a city. He had his own trailer which he parked in a clearing in the woods not far from us so he was able to start early and work late.
We invited him to stay and sit around the campfire but he was too tired and wanted to get to his own trailer to rest and sleep.
