Paint Protection
While summertime in the Philippines meant beaches and sunny weather for a good two to three months, this also meant extreme damage to your rooftops caused by the scorching summer heat. On average, a flat roof receives 1,000 watts of sunlight per square meter in midday. A dark-painted roof will likely absorb a majority of this energy, making your rooftops hot and consequently forcing your air conditioning units to cool this huge amount of hot air.
A simple solution to this problem is painting your roof white, similar to what the Greeks are doing for the last couple of centuries. White roof is known to reflect a whopping 85% of sunlight, while a black roof can heat to over 80C which is enough for you to fry an egg.
But painting your roof white for the summer is one thing; protecting your roof for the following seasons is another. Good thing that Rain or Shine Paint has your back when it comes to top quality roof paints and sealants.
Protecting Your Roofs
Aside from extreme heat, thermal shock, which results from being exposed to cold summer rains after being scorched with intense UV rays, is among the major reasons of roof damage. Thermal shock significantly reduces the structure’s quality, along with improper ventilation that causes mold growth and rotting.
To avoid all of these problems, it is best to seal your roof with Rain or Shine Roof Mastic Paint Protection. Its premium quality formulation is designed to waterproof your roof and protect it against harmful UV rays. It is also specially formulated to prevent any future leaks to get your home ready for the oncoming rainy season. This Paint and Seal technology creates a virtually impenetrable, protective membrane that keeps your roof waterproofed, making it last longer and helping you save time and money.
Repairing Your Roofs
While shingles and rolled roofing add aesthetics to your home, metal roofs are more commonly used in the Philippines because of their easy installation and longer last span. However, this type of roofing will eventually collect rust once its coating wears off. When this happens, it is best to treat rust before it creates holes and cracks on your roof.
To start off, remove the rust from your roof by either scrubbing with a wire brush and some water and detergent mixture. You could also simply sand the roof with an 80-grit wet/dry sandpaper. Make sure to remove molds as well to reveal all the rust and create a smooth surface for your paint and sealant to stick on. Now cover all the holes and cracks with your preferred sealant before finally covering your roof with Rain or Shine Paint Protection Sun Roof Paint.
This elastomeric gloss roof Paint Protection is perfect for both pre-painted or unpainted galvanized iron sheets. Its unique formulation is especially mixed with agents for reducing dirt pick up while increasing weather resistance. On top of that, it protects your roof from peeling, cracking, chalking, and corrosion, all while ensuring the high-quality look of your rooftop.
