roof cleaning

[Larry Dedrick]

Finished my roof off with Rustoleum, one coat of primer and three coats of marine deck white high gloss. Yes the prep did take all day ++, but the time was worth it. The total project time was 5 days due to 24 hr drying time between coats. I am very pleased with the outcome. Now if other things would just quit needing attention , I would be a happy camper.
     5 days until our 3 month trek begins. We will see some of you in Bend or perhaps Redmond.

Will take the pics. As a side note we all originally heard of the product thru the school districts who are now applying to all bus roofs to help keep temps down inside.

Tom,

That bus case I understand. Many of the school bus roofs were traditionally painted black or yellow and had no insulation or attic space like our ceiling areas have. That bus is basically a metal oven. While sitting in the sun it would radiate the metal roof heat inside in a dramatic fashion. Making the roof a white more reflective surface would be a significant change. Our RV case is a white gel coated roof with an insulated attic space. I think any thin film material, either bus kote or deck paint would do little more than add a small amount of reflective improvement.
