Dakaflash
Dakaflash is a composite laminate flashing that combines reinforced aluminum mesh from Wakaflex with a creped aluminum top sheet and butyl backing from Smartform. It features a creped aluminum top sheet with a fully self-adhesive butyl backing. The adhesive contains the same aluminum mesh found in Wakaflex, which provides Dakaflash with added rigidity and support, ensuring a smoothly contoured finish on the roof surface. Dakaflash can stretch up to 30% in length and includes a two-piece protective HDPE backing.
Best for New build homes, second-storey additions, abutments, chimneys, and flashing maintenance. It is suitable for use on tile, metal, and polycarbonate roofs.
Using Dakaflash
Flashings seal the joints where the roof meets walls, chimneys, vents and other penetrations. Dakaflash is used to keep water out at those joints. Dress flashing into the tile profile, lap joints so water runs over them, and seal the top edge where it meets a wall.
Available colours: Black, Grey, Terracotta.
Goes well with
- Roofing silicone and a silicone gun
- Flexible pointing for ridge and hip caps
- Replacement tiles around the flashing

Dakaflash: common questions
Can I seal around a roof penetration with flashing tape?
Yes. Self-adhesive flashing tape bridges joints and seals around pipes and vents, provided the surface is clean and dry.
Should I replace split or corroded flashing?
Yes. Sealant over failed flashing is a short-term fix. Replace it and seal the joints properly.
