Types of Roof Coating!

It is very important to know about Types of roof coatings and its pros and cons. Following are the few types of coatings which can be used for roofing:

Metal Roofing
Metal roofing is usually manufactured in steel, copper, aluminium or stainless steel and installed as sheets, even if it looks like individual tiles, shakes or stones. It can be coated in a many different types and colours of paint and other materials. Modern metal roofing frequently carries warrantees of 50 years if applied correctly.

Elastomeric coatings
A new chemistry that promises to both cover your roof and stop roof leakages, while it reflects sunlight and lowers your energy bill. The home owner can apply it themselves with a paint roller and long handled extension, without ever having to climb around on the roof.
It's too bad, but in my experience, it seldom works this way. The products stick well to bare metal and maintain their reflective qualities. I don't think they hold up well where they have been applied over other patching material.
