Austar Painting & Renovations INTRODUCTION It goes without saying that the roof of your home has to be at the pink of health and glory at any given point in time. It will not only add aesthetic value to your home, but will protect your home from the elements 24×7. Now what does it take to protect your roof? Obviously, flawless construction is the key. However, that is not enough. You need to have it properly painted, as it will keep your roof in perfect condition, besides make it look great. Now you will mainly find 3 types of paints to use on your roof – acrylic coating, silicone coating, Polyurethane coating. There is a 4th type of coating – the fluid-applied asphaltic rubber membrane system that you can apply on your roof, but let us keep that out of this discussion. PAGE 2
Acrylic Coating: These coatings are actually meant to provide ultraviolet protection to the foam applications. However, these coatings are now applied on a wide range of roof surfaces, including the single-ply membranes as well as metal systems. Acrylic- based paints provide unparalleled resistance to damage from radiation or hail storms. Besides, they come up with certain inherent flexible qualities, to withstand the dimensional instability, caused by fluctuations of temperature. Also, they help to remarkably reduce the surface temperature, thereby reducing the heat transfers to the interiors of your property during the summer time. These acrylic paints come at cost effective rate, provide the finest reflectivity and can be applied on the surface in an effortless way. Thus, they are always a very favoured option for the experts from roof painting services in Melbourne. Silicon Paints: Silicon paints are highly elastic in nature and show excellent adhesion properties to the surfaces on which they are applied. Silicon paints are highly resistant to weather, and they hardly become brittle or hard. Hence, they last long. Silicon coatings are more popular for painting the roofs of the commercial properties more so because of their ability to take on long term and continuous exposure to elements, including water pools (just in case there is undulation in the roof surface). These paints also provide excellent protection against ultraviolet protection in harsh environments and extreme temperatures. These paints are available in a wide range of colours and have high emissivity and reflectivity ratings. PAGE 3
Polyurethane Paints: Polyurethane paints were originally meant to be applied on foam roofs. However, they are now used on every type of roof and are extremely resistant to conditions. They come in two forms – aromatic and aliphatic. These paints are basically used in a combination of a base coat and top coat. While the base coat material is durable but does not offer a very high UV resistance, the top surface is UV stable, it stays clean and fresh and holds back the paint shades much longer than other coatings, thus looking fresh and bright even after considerable exposure. That is the reason, professionals who are into roof painting in Melbourne would always suggest going for these paints.
