All About Cool Roof Coating

A cool roof coating significantly lowers roof temperatures thanks to its high thermal reflectance and solar reflectivity. Cool roof paint keeps offices, go-downs, houses, sheds, or any other building cool by reflecting the sun's heat. There are a number of ways that roof restoration saves building owners and property manager’s money now and in the future.

To ensure that the sun's heat is absorbed as little as possible, white roof coatings contain pigments with high resistance. This makes it possible for the building to remain cooler, resulting in savings on the amount of energy needed to cool it.

 Cool Roof Coating

There are two distinct types of cool roof paint:

Coatings containing cement: Cementitious Coating is made to waterproof structural concrete and other mineral substrates both inside and out. Cementitious Coatings are breathable, seamless coatings that are applied to concrete and masonry surfaces to provide positive and negative side waterproofing protection.

Coatings with elastomers: An elastomer, also known as rubber if it has been vulcanized, is essentially a polymer with elasticity properties.

What is a cool roof coating for summers?

Summer roof paint transfers the sun's heat back to the sky rather than the underlying building surface by reflecting the sun's rays. Summer cool roof coating keeps the heat from the sun out of the house during the summer. Solar reflectance and thermal emittance are the two properties that are used to measure "coolness."

They are excellent resistance to ultraviolet radiation, abrasion and moisture. They are excellent water resistance.

Applications method of cool roof coating

Preparation of the substrate: Tile glaze or varnish and all dust, loose and friable materials must be completely removed mechanically. For a solid, gripping substrate, existing coatings and membranes must be inspected, cleaned, and mechanically ground.

Repair and reinforce: Use roof patch in accordance with the label's instructions to patch and repair cracks, blisters, and other problematic areas. It is possible to open blisters in previous coatings, but these areas must be allowed to dry completely. Unless they are likely to break, blisters in the roofing ply should be left alone. Seal and reinforce any holes, cracks, open seams, or roof penetrations. Work carefully and thoroughly because these could leak. Fabric can be used to reinforce various coating repairs and to construct flashings around roof edges or penetrations.

Coating: When the roof is dry and the sealant has set, apply the coating. A foot extension pole, a paint roller measuring 12 inches for dipping in the pail or 1 1/4 inches for spreading the coating on the roof, and a sturdy frame are all you'll need. With base coats and emulsions, use a roller. Draw a map of your roof and fill each pail to the top.

The final check is to use a stiff paint brush to apply Crack & Joint Sealant. For recommended coverage, refer to the product details. Always apply topcoats with a very thick coat. To achieve the desired effect, two light coats or one heavier coat can also be applied.
