How Do I Paint Roof Tiles?
Roof painting can completely rejuvenate your roof
- Extend roof life by up to 15 years after a simple paint application
- Enjoy a cleaner roof with significantly less moss, mould and algae
- Have a healthier drier roof that's water-resistant but still breathable
- Choose from a wide range of colours
- Get a roof that'll stay brighter for longer by inhibiting the build up of dirt and grime
Choose from Tikkurila's Kilpi Roof Tile Paint or from our Isonit range (Isonit GL12, Isonit GL20 or Isonit GL50, depending on gloss grade required) which have high UV stability and high end colour pigments to endure the relentless sun and weather exposure on a roof.
- Ensure the roof is cleaned and dried properly, stopping the paint from peeling off. (A thorough clean with high pressure and using Tikkurila's Iso A Clean is as important as the actual painting. Well prepared surfaces ensure great adherence and long lasting durability.)
- Uses a good biocide to kill off any algae and moss spores prior to painting
- Uses two coats of topcoat
Note: It is advantageous to prime fibre cement roofs with Eternit Primer in order to obtain a durable surface.
