The evil geniuses who designed all this made it so the Eternabond and Dicor only work right in the Summer when it never rains and you won't know you need some.
In Winter on the Wet Coast it rains and rains and is cold. That is when your leaks show up. But you can't fix them because of the requirements of the Eternabond or Dicor for prep and application until Spring or even Summer.
So you just do it anyway and pray. Lots of goop and tape between rain times and you know you will have to do it right later in the year when conditions are right. Or just put a tarp over it all and pray some more.

Great summation! :B
I used some Dicor today and it's about to freeze out there.
Great huh?

Some extensive rework was done to my roof on 12/9. Today I removed some Dicor to install a new ant. and it was soft on the outside and in the middle, it was absolutely fresh - after ten days!
I would never use both products. Just not needed.

Have you given thought to applying the Eterabond and then using the Dicor as a edge seal to the Eterabond?
Randu
I have found that an edge seal for Eternabond is generally not necessary. I applied a lot to my roof 6 years ago, and it is still firmly stuck. I did fix an issue on a slide with Eternabond and used an edge seal there, as the seal rubbed on the area each time as the slide is retracted and I wanted a "ramp" there to ease the seal lip up and over the edge of the Eternabond.
sometimes it is correct.

Given fairly warm weather and sunshine, how long will Dicor Self Leveling Caulk take to cure before Eternabond can be applied on top of it?
5 Minutes – Skins over
4 Hours – Waterproof
48 Hours – Cure 80%
30 Days – 100% Cure
Can't we all just get along?
