Reflective Roof Paints and Coatings

Material pricing depends on coating formulation and volume. SolarEx 300 acrylic costs $289.00 per 5-gallon pail or $2,290.00 per 55-gallon drum. TropEx 310 ranges from $0.96 to $1.30 per square foot for a 10-year system, while SiliconEx 500 silicone runs $1.25 to $1.64 per square foot for a 20-year system. Bulk pallet rates are available.

Our reflective coatings adhere to diverse roofing substrates. Compatible surfaces include metal, concrete, masonry, wood, asphalt shingles, mineral cap sheets, built-up roofing (BUR), modified bitumen, spray-applied polyurethane foam (SPF), and single-ply membranes such as TPO and EPDM. Both acrylic and silicone systems provide versatile compatibility across commercial and residential structures.

Yes, our solvent-free 100% silicone coating, SiliconEx 500, offers permanent ponding water resistance. Unlike conventional water-based coatings that soften under standing water, moisture-cure silicone forms a seamless hydrophobic barrier. This makes silicone the recommended solution for flat and low-slope commercial roofs where water frequently collects around drains, scuppers, or roof valleys.

Longevity varies by product chemistry and applied system thickness. Properly applied acrylic coatings such as SolarEx 300 last 10 to 15 years, while TropEx 310 is designed for 10-year restoration systems. High-solids silicone solutions like SiliconEx 500 provide up to a 20-year material warranty, resisting weathering, UV breakdown, and extreme temperature swings.

SolarEx coatings can be applied using an airless sprayer, roller, or brush. Acrylic coatings like SolarEx 300 are compatible with airless spray rigs operating at 3,000 PSI or higher for fast coverage. Silicone coatings apply smoothly over prepared substrates, allowing contractors to complete large-scale commercial restoration projects efficiently without tear-offs.

Yes, while brilliant white formulations maximize solar reflectivity, multiple color options exist. TropEx 310 elastomeric coating comes standard in White, Gray, and Tan, with custom colors available. SolarEx 300 provides custom color matching supported by a 1,020-color fan deck alongside collections from major paint brands to match architectural requirements.
