The Simple, Sustainable Repair:: Roof Coating Restoration Over Metal

A silicone roof coating restoration is presented as an optimal solution to repairing leak-prone metal roofs. By applying a thin layer of silicone directly to the metal roof surface, it can eliminate leaks and the need for repairs for up to 20 years by sealing seams, fasteners, and flashings that often cause leaks. The restoration process involves inspecting and preparing the roof surface before applying a rust primer and two coats of silicone coating. This provides a fully sealed, leak-proof roof with a 20-year warranty while keeping the existing metal roof in place.

Roof Coating Restoration Over Metal


IMPROVE PERFORMANCE, EXTEND ROOF LIFE

The Simple, Sustainable Repair:


Metal roofs have an expected life of 40-50 years, but without frequent, costly repairs, they rarely last that long. More
often than not, these repairs are just temporary solutions that don’t truly fix the problem. Metal roofs generally remain
structurally sound for their entire 40-50 year life, but on top of the frequent repairs, they can be riddled with leaks.
These leaks often lead to premature removal and replacement. Many metal roofs never reach their expected life
because building owners grow tired of dumping money into constant repairs that never seem to work.

THE REPAIR TO END ALL REPAIRS


A Silicone Roof Coating Restoration (RCR) from Progressive Materials is the optimal solution to a leak-prone metal roof.
By applying a thin layer of silicone directly to the metal roof surface, you can eliminate leaks and repairs for up to 20
years. A large portion of leaks on metal roofs are the result of failure at roof seams, fasteners, or flashings. Our RCR
completely seals these features and effectively eliminates the risk of leaks at these common weak points.

Metal Roof Concerns: RCR Solutions:


• Seams often lead to leaks • 100% seamless means no leaks
• Fasteners backout, allow heat loss, and can leak • Completely encapsulates fasteners
• Roof expands and contracts with temperature swings • Elasticity ensures no gaps in roof surface
• Rust leads to roof failure • Stops current and prevents future rusting
• Flashings deteriorate and leak • Silicone is self-flashing

RCR Over Metal (continued)

Before After

Before After

The metal roof pictured above was littered with rust and leaks, rendering the metal almost useless. On top of the rust and leaks, many
fasteners had backed out and exposed holes in the roof. After priming the roof with P-130 Rust Inhibitive Primer, Pro-Eco Sil HS 3201
silicone coating was used to seal the roof, prevent leaks, hold fasteners in place, and improve overall performance. On top of all these
benefits, the roof now has a 20 year warranty.

rcr SCOPE OF WORK


• Research history of roof • Prepare & power-wash roof surface
• Inspect existing roof system • Apply PM P-130 Rust Primer to any rust spots
• Identify all roofing problems • Apply Pro-Eco Sil HS 3201 silicone coating in two coats
• Repair metal, seam, fastener, and flashing deviations • Inspect entire roof to ensure compliance with Progressive’s
specifications

Most metal roofs can be coated with a crew of 2-3 men, depending on the project size and time constraints. We also offer a
translucent silicone coating for use on fiberglass skylights.

ENGINEERED FOR SUSTAINABILITY


• System application eliminates the need for tear-off • Lower toxic emissions during installation
and disposal • Reduces energy costs by reflecting sunlight and
• Eliminates landfill waste radiant heat – keeping the roof surface cooler
• Keeps the building interior safe from the elements • Contributes toward LEED credits
during re-roofing • Energy Star rated
