Acrylic Roof Paint
Retek Acrylic Roof Paint is an extremely durable coating that is based upon an idea originally developed by researchers at the National Building Research Institute of the CSIR in 1957. This type of acrylic roof coating has proven itself over a period of more than 30 years under the harshest exposure conditions on some of the most difficult to paint surfaces.
Acrylic Roof Paint exhibits the following features
- Excellent adhesion on clean galvanised steel roofing sheets
- Can also be used on asbestos cement roofing sheets and clay and cement tiles
(correct pre-treatment is required)
- It comes in an existing range of colours
- It has superior hiding power
- It is mould and water resistant and will not blister if used correctly
- It contains no harmful agents
- It has an agreeable odour on application which will disappear in a short period of time
- It is manufactured from a high quality emulsion that has high extendibility
- Water based, so cleaning of equipment is a feast
- Only requires one or two coats on most surfaces
- Can easily be overcoated
Acrylic Roof Paint can be used on the following sufaces
- Galvanised steel roofing
- Cement-based roofing tiles
- Asbestos cement roofing
- Previously painted surfaces (pre-treatment might be required, depending on the surface)
- Painted galvanised steel roofing tiles

- Roof Paint can be applied by roller, brush or roller
- Stir thoroughly before use
- Apply one or two coats of Roof Paint, allowing a drying time of about two hours between coats
