Shingle Roof Sealers and Coatings

Yes, you can apply compatible acrylic roof coatings and sealers over asphalt shingles. Products such as ShinglEx 800 and SolarEx 300 are formulated for asphalt shingle substrates, locking loose granules in place and protecting weathered surfaces. They can be applied using standard spray, roll, or brush equipment on roofs showing early granule loss, helping rejuvenate aged shingles and extend overall roof service life.

An effective asphalt shingle sealer should lock in granules, resist ultraviolet radiation, and prevent mildew growth. Acrylic sealers like ShinglEx 800 provide verified granule retention alongside UV protection to slow sun-induced aging. Depending on the project, you can choose clear formulations or select from standard colors such as black, gray, brown, red, green, and white to refresh the visual appearance of weathered shingles.

Coverage for ShinglEx 800 reaches up to 250 square feet per gallon per coat, depending on shingle porosity and surface texture. For comprehensive restoration and rejuvenation, qualifying systems typically use a two-coat application that carries a seven-year material warranty. The sealer can be purchased in convenient five-gallon pails, fifty-five-gallon drums, or bulk totes and pallets to accommodate both residential and contractor-scale projects.

ShinglEx 800 acrylic shingle sealer is available in clear, black, gray, brown, red, green, and white, with custom color options also available for unique architectural requirements. For reflective applications, SolarEx 300 provides custom color matching with a 1,020-color fan deck plus major brand color collections. These options allow property owners and contractors to refresh roof appearance while adding protective surface barriers.

Reflective acrylic topcoats such as SolarEx 300 utilize titanium dioxide reflective pigment to reflect more than ninety percent of ultraviolet and infrared radiation. By reflecting solar energy away from asphalt shingles and mineral cap sheets, these coatings reduce heat absorption and support long-term roof durability. A properly applied coating system resists dirt pickup and mildew while delivering service life between ten and fifteen years.

Shingle roof sealers and acrylic coatings can be applied using standard equipment, including commercial airless spray systems, paint rollers, or brushes. For airless spraying of SolarEx 300, equipment rated at 3,000 PSI or higher is recommended to achieve uniform atomization and proper film build. Proper application on clean asphalt shingles ensures strong adhesion, even surface protection, and maximum resistance against severe weathering.
