How do you calculate roof paint?
A good rule-of-thumb for calculating the quantity of roof paint required is your project’s footprint area plus about 40% (allows for roof pitch, corrugations, soffit overhang, etc).
How many coats of paint does a roof need?
A three-coat paint system is applied to your cement-tiled roof starting with a primer/sealer and then two color coats. We generally suggest applying a gloss or semi-gloss paint as the bare tiles already have a matte finish so the color wouldn’t stand out as much if matte paint is applied.
Does roof painting last?
When you use the right high-quality paint for the job combined with accepted application techniques on top of adequate surface preparation you can expect roof paint to last for 15 years and more. If you neglect the surface preparation your paint performance will never last as long no matter how good the paint is.
