acrylic-based paint.


The high pressure cleans also removed loose and flaking paint and prepared the roof for the application of its final protective coating.

Step 3: commercial or industrial Roof membrane application and painting


The roof was then primed with a high-build solution designed to prevent corrosion and provide maximum adhesion of the roof membrane coating.
