Product Proile: Recoatings

Arkema
Kynar Aquatec is a water-based formulation utilized in various metal and metal roof coatings. Kynar Aquatec delivers the durability and performance of traditional Kynar 500 PVDF resin-based coatings with the ability to dry at ambient temperatures. Both field- and factory-applied, Kynar Aquatec based coatings are most commonly used on metal roof systems and roof edge products to extend their service lives and reduce the life cycle costs associated with standard roofing maintenance. Kynar Aquatec based coatings offer excellent adhesion to Kynar 500 PVDF resin-based coatings and other metal coatings, enabling easy in-field restoration, repairs, touch ups and color changes. Kynar Aquatec based coatings also provide high reflectivity and emissivity values that meet the needs of energy efficient building codes such as California’s Title 24.

The Brewer Company
The Ohio company manufactures and supplies cold applied coatings, cements, adhesives mastics, emulsions, reflectives and reinforcement fabrics.

Conklin Products
The company’s MR System for metal roofs is a complete watertight system to be installed in a spray-applied, seamless form over virtually any type of metal roof, even those with rust problems. The system includes elastomeric acrylic coatings that have 300 percent elongation; flexible spunwoven fabrics for high stress areas such as seams and flashing areas; adhesive acrylic sealants to hold screws in place and providing a leak-tight seal; and premium rust-inhibiting primers with optional solvent or water-based technology.

Dynamic Fastener
Drop-Stop sealer was specifically designed for application to metal roofs and problem areas such as gutters, expansion joints, etc. Drop-Stop can easily be applied over sloped, contoured surfaces and will give long lasting, colorful protection. Made from select synthetic rubbers, Drop-Stop is applied effortlessly as heavy bodied paints. This unique material actually stretches and recovers to bridge roof joints in which thermal movement can be expected. With 1600 PSI tensile and 600 percent elongation capabilities, Drop-Stop can single handedly tackle most metal repairs.

EPDM Coatings
Liquid Rubber is the only EPDM rubber in liquid form. Liquid Rubber provides a seamless, single-coat roof coating that can be applied up to six times thicker than standard elastomeric. It is ideal for recoating weathered metal roofing, EPDM roof membranes, troweled concrete, foam, weathered siding and more. Liquid Rubber will withstand ponding water or immersion indefinitely and can be installer over lightly rusted surfaces without a primer. Uncured Liquid Rubber will not be damaged by freezing temperatures.

ERSystems
Erathane 300 Finish Coat White is a reflective, cool, high performance elastomeric polyurethane coating. The product is a liquid applied, single component, moisture-cured polyurethane coating. Erathane 300 Finish Coat is designed to provide a combination of superb adhesion to a variety of substrates and a balance of high elongation and high tensile strength. Erathane 300 Finish Coat is a “tough” coating and provides the ultimate in waterproofing.

The Garland Company
Solex is a new eco-friendly, highly reflective roof coating for metal, modified bitumen or single ply restoration, which is formulated from Kynar Aquatec polyvinylidene fluoride, a water-based, fluoropolymer-acrylic resin. This environmentally responsible coating can reduce rooftop temperatures by as much as 80 degrees, significantly reducing HVAC operating expenses during the summer months.

National Coatings Corp.
AcryShield Roof Management Systems are custom installed resulting in a seamless membrane. This watertight roofing system can be installed right over the existing roof. Use RustShield for spot treatment or rust. Custom reinforcement may be used where necessary. AcryShield basecoats provide excellent waterproofing and superior adhesion resistance to ponded water. AcryShield topcoats provide industry leading UV protection, longevity and brightness. Topcoats are formulated for superior dirt pick-up resistance and protection against biological attack such as algae mold.

Nationwide Chemical Coatings
Permakote Silver Seal is an elastomeric acrylic, ceramic filled, aluminum silver metallic protective coating designed for metal. It uses a latex, water-based formula that has waterproofing, insulating and reflecting properties. It forms a durable rubber-like protection shield that expands and contracts with varying temperatures and resists thermal shock.

Polyglass
PG 700 is an elastomeric roof coating that helps restore worn out metal rooftops. Part of the company’s enhanced line of cool roof solutions, PG 700 is a highly reflective coating that helps keep metal rooftops cool and extend their service lives by reflecting harmful heat and solar UV rays. PG 700 meets the Cool Roof Rating Council’s standards for reflectivity and emissivity and is Miami/Dade County approved.

Precision Fasteners & Components
Ruscoe Roofing Restoration Products’ all polymer systems are easy to apply by spray or roller and form a durable watertight system that hold up in ponding water. Because it cures to a brilliant white, customers have reported a substantial increase in cooling efficiency.

Roof Mart International
Garna-Flex is a plural component, 100 percent solids, liquid-applied fully adhered membrane. It is used in conjunction with Garna-Thane, a single component liquid-applied radiant barrier.
