GACO Elastomeric Roof Coating delivers industry-leading waterproofing performance by forming a seamless, super-flexible membrane that stands up to ponding water, extreme temperature swings, and UV degradation. Whether you’re looking to extend the life of a commercial flat roof or reinforce a residential low-slope system, GACO Elastomeric Roof Coating offers unmatched elongation, adhesion, and durability to keep your building dry and energy-efficient for years to come.
Why Choose GACO Elastomeric Roof Coating?
-
Superior Ponding-Water Resistance
GACO’s patented formulation resists softening or breakdown when water collects on the roof surface, preventing corrosion and substrate damage in low-slope areas. -
Extreme Elasticity
With elongation values exceeding 400%, the coating stretches to bridge hairline cracks and contracts back without tearing—ideal for substrates subject to thermal cycling. -
Strong Adhesion
Bonds tenaciously to clean, dry surfaces—including metal, concrete, modified bitumen, and BUR—often without the need for a separate primer coat. -
UV and Mildew Protection
Engineered UV stabilizers and anti-microbial additives preserve reflectivity, inhibit mold growth, and guard against chalking and color fade over time.
Key Benefits
-
Leak Prevention & Sealant Performance
Forms a monolithic layer that fills and bridges micro-fissures, stopping leaks at their source before moisture can penetrate the roofing assembly. -
Energy Savings
Available in bright white and reflective formulations to deflect solar heat, helping to cut cooling costs and reduce rooftop temperatures by up to 50°F. -
Extended Roof Life
A high-performance topcoat can add 10–15 years of service to an aging roof, delaying costly tear-offs and structural repairs. -
Low Maintenance & Easy Repairs
Smooth, washable surface resists dirt buildup; periodic recoat cycles refresh the waterproof barrier without full removal.
Application Best Practices
-
Thorough Surface Preparation
Pressure-wash to remove dirt, chalk, grease, and loose coatings. Repair any large blisters or buckled seams prior to coating. -
Ideal Weather Conditions
Apply when temperatures are above 50°F (10°C) and humidity is below 85%, with no rain expected for 24–48 hours after application. -
Two-Coat System
Apply a first “bond” coat at approximately 20–25 mils wet-film thickness; allow 4–6 hours to cure. Follow with a second full waterproofing coat. -
Coverage Rates
Plan for about 1.5–2 gallons per 100 sq. ft. total (across both coats), adjusting for surface texture and porosity.
