Restore, reflect and protect with acrylic coatings

By Dani Sheehan. 

Offer your building owners a suite of reliable, easy-to-apply and environmentally friendly solutions without the cost, disruption or waste of a full replacement. 

Acrylic coatings have earned their reputation as the go-to option for reflective roof restoration. They’re cost-effective, highly reflective and easy to apply, making them a favorite among both contractors and building owners. Applied directly over existing low-slope roofing systems where ponding water isn’t a concern, these coatings can turn a failing roof into a protective, energy-saving asset. 

Key advantages of acrylic coatings include: 

• UV resistance: Acrylics block ultraviolet radiation, protecting roofing membranes from degradation and extending the service life of the roof. 
• Energy savings: White acrylic coatings reflect sunlight, significantly lowering surface and ambient building temperatures, reducing cooling costs. 
• Flexibility: Acrylics expand and contract with seasonal temperature changes, helping them resist cracking and peeling over time. 
• Ease of use: Water-based and non-toxic, acrylic coatings are easy to apply and even easier to clean up because no special solvents are required.
