Asphaltic roof coatings are an easy-to-install roof product that can extend the life of an existing roof, protect a roof from tears and abrasions, and improve reflectivity and emissivity ratings for better energy efficiency. At Polyglass, our asphaltic coatings are specially designed to address a wide range of roofing applications and challenges.

Polyglass offers an array of different asphaltic roof coating products, including:
When applied, aluminum coatings form a reflective, metallic shield over the base material. Polyglass aluminum coatings are specifically formulated to be compatible with our roofing membranes, but they are designed to protect a variety of asphalt-based roofs.
Easy-to-apply mastics are roof coatings that offer excellent adhesion and weathering characteristics. They can be used in repair solutions for a multitude of roof types.
Polyglass modified cements and adhesives are ideal for use with SBS modified bitumen roof membranes as a cold-applied adhesive and are specially formulated to be compatible with Polyglass roofing membranes.
As a safer and more efficient alternative to hot asphalt, Polyglass’ protective coatings perform well as adhesives for mineral granules and organic roll roofing membranes.
Polyglass’ emulsions and primers serve as a protective surface for metal roofing, masonry, stucco, parapet walls, curbs, and base flashings. They can also be used as a dampproofing compound for below-grade walls.
When properly applied, a roof coating can be a highly effective barrier to prevent leaks.
Polyglass’ aluminum coatings form a reflective, metallic shield over the base material. Depending on environmental conditions, aluminum roof coatings should last anywhere between three to five years.
Asphalt roof coatings may be applied in a variety of ways, including:
The exact application method(s) recommended will depend on the specific product.
A fibered roof coating is infused with fibers, such as fiberglass, to increase the strength and tear-resistance of a roof coating, albeit at the expensive of elasticity. A non-fibered roof coating does not contain fibers to reinforce its strength, but it offers greater elasticity once cured.
