  • Roof restoration painting roof
    It is a big job to paint a terracotta tiled roof properly but the results can be really rewarding. Some painters won't paint terracotta tiles but believe me they can be painted but has to be done properly.
    I contact one of the big paint manufacturers and ask for their suggestions , they will send a rep out and evaluate the roof and advise what is the best way to do this
    and one more thing..Most people are under the impression that spray painting a roof will be cheaper because it takes less material.
    I apply one coat of clear slier and at least 2 coats of the roofing paint
    Using a good airless unit allows you to apply the acrylic paint will atomize the paint and create a beautiful finish on the tile without weakening the paint.
    pressure cleaning the roof, make sure you step on the cleaned part of the tile.. once the tile has been cleaned it is no longer slippery even though it is wet. so the rule of thumb is to clean in front of yourself at all times. and don't step onto a wet section that has not been cleaned,, it will be treacherous and you can slip very easily.
    You will need an etching solution or etching primer to create a surface that paint will adhere to. After this application, you should apply a sealer to seal the tiles and make them waterproof again. Tiles become porous over time and will absorb water and eventually seep through the tile. Sealing it will prevent this.
    Materials used are:
    Spray And Walk Away A cost-effective non-bleach based exterior cleaner used to restore all those dangerous slimy green and slippery black surfaces you have around the home to near new.
    The combination of biodegradable selective surfactants is slow acting on moss, mould, mildew, lichen and algae and works over time reactivating for the first few rainfalls. No hosing or scrubbing just spray it on and walk away.
    Point Works is a flexible pointing compound for the adhesion of ridge tiles to the hips and ridges of roofs. It provides very strong bond between the tiles and ridge. With an excellent cracking resistance, it is suitable for use under different climatic conditions.
