Roof coating question
« on: April 14, 2025, 03:59:42 AM »
Hello,

I have a question regarding roof coating.  Our roof is caulkie, has the drooling effect.  I have been reconsidering my intention of painting the roof with Epoxy Deck paint.

Has anyone resealed their roof with a Silicone coating.  They say you will never have to recoat it, it stays cooler, never fades.  100% Guaranteed for life.  Has anybody tried it, how are the results?

Thanks for the assist.

We have used Rust-Oleum Top Side Marine Paint with great success.  Even after I sold our Beaver I followed up with the new owner and he has not seen evidence of white streaks on the coach!  Some epoxy paints/coatings are not specified for fiberglass.  This product works great on fiberglass.

Easy application and years of good results.  I used white semi-gloss.

I think if you search the forum others have used it as well.

Thanks Paul,

Yes, I have read most of the posts on coating with Epoxy Deck paint or Top Sider.  That is what I had planned to do, but my bad knees will keep me from doing the best I can on the roof.

So I thought I would look at different types of coatings, Silicon coating is one I thinking about having applied.
