    Spray this paint on the back of glass or clear plastic to create a reflective silver effect on the other side. One coat will create a translucent appearance; use up to five coats for a mirror-like finish. Allow paint to dry for one minute between coats. Apply a layer of clear or flat black paint after all layers dry completely to protect finish from chipping and scratching.

    Moisture-Resistant Reflective Silicone Rubber Roof Coatings

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Roof Coatings. Moisture-Resistant Reflective Silicone Rubber Roof Coatings.
    Made from silicone rubber, these coatings are more durable than acrylic plastic coatings for roofs and have better resistance to pooling water. They reflect up to 90% of the sun's rays to reduce cooling costs. Coatings are self-leveling and have excellent adhesion to most roof surfaces. They begin to protect against rain in as few as 60 minutes after application. Apply to a dry surface with a squeegee or brush.
