Seamsil® 100 Cut Edge Corrosion System
The problem of cut edge corrosion
Plastic coatings on metal profiled roof sheets undergo the challenges of delamination and deterioration which poses a threat to the roof’s structure and performance. The cut edge and overlap joints are especially susceptible to the damaging effects of capillary action, drawing in sulphur-contaminated rainwater and causing double the damage with both “topside” and “reverse side” corrosion.
Cut edge corrosion is a progressive issue that, if left unaddressed, can spread beyond the edge. Protect your roof with proactive measures to combat roof degradation.
Considering sustainability
By proactively maintaining the integrity of a roof, it is possible to prevent roof fabric deterioration, avoid leaks and protect building assets from damage. Refurbishing a profiled metal roof using Sharmans market leading roof refurbishment systems is the most sustainable option, as it incurs 5 times less embodied carbon than replacing the entire roof.
Refurbish, don’t replace.

We have updated the Seamsil® 100 system
We’ve integrated our marketing leading Delcote® system as a topcoat which means Seamsil® 100 is better than ever.
- Our Delcote topcoat now replaces the Seamsil topcoat but sealant and basecoat remain the same
- Cost savings of up to 5% per linear metre over the previous system
- Higher solids content meaning lower VOCs released into the atmosphere
- Temperature-resistant and faster curing without the need for thinners on the top coat
- Quicker application with brushing or rolling options
- A wide range of colour options from the full Delcote® system
Independently tested against leading rigorous industry standards, the systems have been specifically designed for the gutter and roof environments. Installed into the commercial roof sector since 1985, our systems have stood the test of time, providing complete peace of mind to specifiers.
These market leading systems are underpinned by a range of guarantees to choose from.
- Weather and UV resistant
- Proven corrosion resistance
- Water repellent seal
- Primerless adhesion
- Remains tough and flexible
