EnergyCote™ Coating Super-High Reflectivity
Description
EnergyCote™ is a brilliant white, water-based, low VOC, highly
reflective, elastomeric coating, which cures to form a seamless rubber membrane.
It has been specifically designed to treat seams, laps, flashings, and other edges
and details in reflective cap sheet products such as the EnergyCap™
and CoolCap™ series of reflective membranes. It is highly reflective,
flexible and, due to unique emulsion chemistry, resists unsightly bleed-through
over asphalt substrates better than other coating systems. It is non-flammable,
presents minimal hazard to the installer or the environment, and cleans up with
water.
Uses
EnergyCote™ is designed to add reflectivity and protect areas of
asphalt bleed-out on white reflective asphaltic roll roofing applications to give
a uniform, brilliant white finish across the whole roof area. Matching granules
may be broadcast into the asphalt bleed-out at seams prior to coating to enhance
the finished appearance of the membrane.
Advantages
- Highly compatible with asphaltic substrates and resistant to staining and asphalt
bleed-through, even on fresh asphalt
- Ideal for touch-up of reflective asphaltic membranes
- No waiting period for exposed asphalt to age
- Low VOC, non-flammable, and presents minimal hazard to the installer or the environment
- Easy application by brush, roller, or spray
