EPDM Roofing Association

Walk the roofing aisle and a lot of pails say rubber. Some are acrylic latex. Some are silicone. One of the most popular brands, with over 2 million gallons sold by its own count, sells a roof sealant that's 40 to 60 percent asphalt. A few are solvent-borne butyl, and the tough stuff contractors spray is polyurea. On an EPDM roof they behave nothing alike.

Quick answer

"Rubber roof coating" is a marketing term, not a chemistry. It covers asphalt emulsions, acrylics, silicones, solvent butyl, SEBS-type rubbers and sprayed polyurea. If your roof is EPDM and sound, it doesn't need a coating at all (EPDM Roofing Association). If you coat it anyway, to stop small leaks, turn a black roof white or buy time on a chalking RV roof, pick a product whose data sheet names EPDM, clean with a non-petroleum cleaner, use the maker's EPDM primer or activator and test a patch first. Acrylic is the budget pick on well-drained roofs. Silicone handles ponding but locks you into silicone. A sprayed polyurea membrane is the long-life option when the roof is worth keeping. Decode your label or check your EPDM roof.

Most pages on this topic are product pages for one brand of "liquid rubber," or cost guides that treat liquid rubber as a single material with a single price. Neither tells you what's in the can, whether it will bond to EPDM, or how thick the film is once the water or solvent leaves. That last number decides how long it lasts.

We're ArmorThane, a coatings manufacturer in Springfield, Missouri, and we've been at it for more than 35 years. We make polyurea, which is the "spray-on rubber" pros use. We don't make acrylic, silicone, butyl or asphalt roof coatings, so we have no reason to oversell them, and we'll tell you when one of them is the better buy. Every product fact below comes from the maker's own page, data sheet or safety data sheet.

The basics

What is rubber roof coating, really?

A rubber roof coating is any liquid-applied roof coating that cures to a flexible, rubbery film. The word describes how it feels, not what it's made of. Under that one label you'll find asphalt emulsions, acrylic latex, silicone, solvent-borne butyl, SEBS-type rubbers and sprayed polyurea, and each has its own rules for EPDM, ponding water and recoating.

Try it yourself. Search Home Depot for "rubber roof coating" and you get 307 results (September 27, 2026). Near the top: Henry's 587 acrylic, Henry's 887 silicone, an asphalt emulsion, a "rubberized aluminum" coating, Ames "Maximum-Stretch Rubber and Acrylic," and a Gardner pail the store titles "Liquid Rubber Coating" that Gardner's own page calls "100% Silicone." Same word, at least four chemistries.

What gets sold as rubber roof coating

Filter by how the product cures. Water-based products dry as the water leaves. Solvent and moisture-cure products are one-part pails that clean up with mineral spirits. Pro-sprayed means two components through a heated rig.

Liquid EPDM vs. liquid butyl

EPDM is one specific synthetic rubber: ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer, and the sheet standard is ASTM D4637. Plenty of "liquid EPDM" roof coatings aren't EPDM. The best-known brand, EPDM Coatings LLC, calls its product Liquid Butyl Rubber in its own copy. Butyl is a different synthetic rubber, made by copolymerizing isobutylene with a little isoprene and prized for being gas-tight (Britannica).

That doesn't make it a bad coating. It means the words "liquid EPDM" tell you nothing about how the product bonds to your EPDM sheet. Read the TDS. And read it closely: that maker's technical page lists elongation as 500% (ASTM D412) in its table and "180-200%" in its spread-rate paragraph. Ask which one applies.

The ASTM check: the fastest way past the label

The International Residential Code accepts seven material standards for liquid-applied roofing (R905.15.2). If a pail names one, you know its family and that it met a minimum spec. If it names none, you're relying on the maker's word.

StandardWhat it coversLabel words you'll see
ASTM D6083Water-dispersed acrylic latex elastomeric roof coatings"Elastomeric," "rubberized," "white roof coating"
ASTM D6694Silicone coatings for spray-foam roofs, more than 95% silicone polymer"100% silicone," "rubberized"
ASTM D6947Single-component moisture-cured polyurethane for spray-foam roofs"Urethane," "polyurethane"
ASTM D1227Emulsified asphalt protective coatings, on inclines of at least 4% (½ in. per ft)"Asphalt emulsion," sometimes "liquid rubber"
ASTM D3468Liquid-applied neoprene and chlorosulfonated polyethylene (Hypalon) "synthetic rubber solutions"The original liquid rubber roofing
ASTM C836 / C957Cold liquid-applied elastomeric waterproofing membranes for decksDeck and plaza membranes
Titles and scopes from ASTM's own listings; accepted list from IRC R905.15.2 (2015 text). None of the seven is written for EPDM or butyl. Note that D1227 asphalt emulsions are specified for slopes of ½ in. per foot or more, steeper than many "flat" roofs, and the IRC wants any liquid-applied roofing on at least ¼ in. per foot (R905.15.1).
Interactive tool 1 of 4

Which rubber roof coating do you actually have?

Read four things on the pail: the color it dries, how it cleans up, whether it's one can or two, and which ASTM standard it names. Black with soap-and-water cleanup points to asphalt emulsion. White with soap-and-water points to acrylic. Mineral-spirits cleanup points to silicone or a solvent rubber. Two parts through a heated rig means polyurea.

Label decoder

What's really in this "rubber" roof coating?

Answer from the label, the data sheet or the pail you already have. It scores eight chemistry families and tells you what that means for an EPDM roof.

Asphalt emulsion (“liquid rubber”)Likely

Runner-up: Acrylic latex elastomer. An ASTM spec on the label or an asphalt line in SDS section 3 would settle it.

What it is

Asphalt emulsion (“liquid rubber”)

Asphalt (bitumen) plus polymers in water. The SDS of one popular “liquid rubber” sealant lists 40–60% asphalt cement; it goes on brown and dries black.

Spec to look for: ASTM D1227 covers emulsified asphalt roof coatings on slopes of ½ in. per foot or more.

On EPDM

Compatibility and prep

Liquid Rubber requires its EPDM & TPO Primer on EPDM. EPDM is harmed by prolonged contact with liquid petroleum (ERA), so don’t skip the primer.

Performance

Ponding, UV and weather

Black finish runs hot. Its maker rates it 5–10 years before recoating.

Before you buy

Coverage and recoating

About 15 sq ft per gallon on flat roofs (Liquid Rubber).

Not over silicone or coal tar (maker).

How the top four scored

Asphalt emulsion (“liquid rubber”)
8.0 pts
Acrylic latex elastomer
3.5 pts
SEBS or another solvent rubber
1.0 pts
Solvent-borne butyl (“liquid EPDM”)
0.5 pts

A rule of thumb from the data sheets in this guide, not a lab result. If you’re about to put it on EPDM, see the EPDM checker next.

How it works: each answer adds weighted points to eight families (asphalt emulsion, acrylic, silicone, solvent butyl, SEBS or other solvent rubber, neoprene/Hypalon, moisture-cure urethane, polyurea). A named ASTM spec or an asphalt line on the SDS outweighs everything else. It's a rule of thumb built from the data sheets in this guide, not a lab test. The SDS settles it: section 3 lists the hazardous ingredients.

EPDM compatibility

Can you put a rubber coating on an EPDM roof?

Yes, with the right product and prep. But a sound EPDM roof doesn't need one. The EPDM Roofing Association (ERA) says acrylic coatings "can be applied directly to a prepared EPDM surface," and that EPDM needs "no special coating or other surface treatment" to reach its life expectancy. Coat EPDM to fix a specific problem, not by default.

Does a rubber roof need to be coated?

Usually not. The ERA reports EPDM installations past 40 years, studies suggesting a potential 50-year life for aged membrane, and, thanks to its UV resistance, warranties of up to 30 years. Standing water "has absolutely no affect on EPDM membrane," in the ERA's words, though it still recommends positive drainage. HomeGuide says the same thing in plainer English: an EPDM roof "typically does not need a coating."

So why coat one? Four honest reasons:

  • You want a white roof. Black EPDM gets its UV resistance from carbon black, which turns sunlight into heat (ERA). A reflective roof can stay more than 50°F cooler (DOE). In cold climates, DOE warns the winter heating penalty can outweigh the summer savings.
  • The membrane is getting thin. That's mostly an RV problem; see below.
  • It has many small repairs. Patched seams and old punctures can be tied together under one film, once each is repaired properly.
  • Appearance. A chalky, stained roof you look down on from a second story.

And reasons not to: a coating adds a maintenance cycle to a roof that didn't have one, and it can complicate a membrane warranty. The ERA says to contact the EPDM manufacturer first "to ensure compatibility and continuation of warranty coverage."

From the EPDM Roofing Association FAQ, Dicor product pages and FAQ, Liquid Rubber and EPDM Coatings technical pages, GacoRoof FAQ, Tough Tech's product page and our own roof coating and RV repair guides. "Maker says" means the coating maker; the membrane maker's word governs your warranty.

RV rubber roofs aren't commercial EPDM

Commercial EPDM runs .045 to .090 in. thick (ERA). Dicor's Brite-Ply RV membrane is .035 in. And it's meant to wear: Dicor says it "may oxidize 10% of it's thickness" in a dozen years, which it calls normal, and it expects a maintained roof to last at least 20 years. That white chalk on your rag is roof leaving.

Dicor's care rules matter before any coating: wash at least four times a year, and never use cleaners with petroleum solvents, harsh abrasives or citrus. Petroleum distillates, it says, make the membrane "swell or balloon." A coating won't stick to a swollen sheet, and it won't fix one.

On a thinning RV roof, a coating system does real work. Dicor's own "rubber roof coating" is an acrylic that goes on in two coats at 125 sq ft per gallon each, after its cleaner/activator. Our RV roof sealant guide covers the seams and fixtures that fail first, and RV roof coatings covers the sprayed option.

Split view of an RV roof: a clean white coated surface on the left and a weathered, chalking rubber membrane on the right
Coated on the left, weathered EPDM on the right. RV membranes are thin enough that chalking is lost thickness.

Silicone on EPDM: caulk no, coating maybe

Dicor's installation guide is blunt: "Do not use silicone – it will not adhere to the EPDM rubber." Yet Dicor also sells a 100% silicone coating for EPDM roofs. The difference is the product and the prep: its silicone goes over its cleaner/activator, in two coats at 125 sq ft per gallon. Household silicone caulk has no such system, and it leaves a residue that tape, sealant and coatings won't bond to. More on silicone's trade-offs in our silicone roof coating guide.

Read the warranty before you coat

Two warranties are in play. The membrane maker's may care what you put on its sheet, which is why the ERA says to call first. The coating maker's usually covers the product, not your labor or your ceiling. EPDM Coatings' warranty, for example, is limited to replacement product or a refund, excludes "the absence of positive drainage," and runs "no more than 10 years." Liquid Rubber's 10-year RV warranty replaces failed product, can't be transferred, and wants contact within 30 days of a problem.

Should you coat your EPDM roof?

Coat it when the membrane is sound and you have a reason: repaired seams you want to protect, a thinning RV sheet, or a black roof you want white in a hot climate. Don't coat over wet insulation, open seams or a roof whose membrane warranty you haven't checked. This checker sorts out which case you're in.

A sound EPDM roof doesn’t need a coating

The ERA says EPDM needs “no special coating or other surface treatment” to reach its life expectancy, and reports installations past 40 years. Clean it, inspect it twice a year and after storms (This Old House), and save the coating money. If it leaks, check the seams, flashings and penetrations first and repair that spot.

Your coating

Acrylic on EPDM

  • The EPDM Roofing Association says acrylics can go directly on prepared EPDM (pressure wash with a detergent solution).
  • Use the maker’s EPDM primer or activator; Dicor’s Part 1 cleaner/activator goes on at 1 qt per 125 sq ft.
  • Two coats at the stated rate. Ames’ data sheet gives 10.6 dry mils minimum.

Screening only. A roofer’s moisture survey or core cut is the way to find wet insulation under a dry-looking membrane.

Educational screening, not a roof inspection. It can't see wet insulation under a dry-looking membrane; a roofer's core cut or moisture survey can. The IRC doesn't allow a re-cover over a roof that's water-soaked or deteriorated (R908.3.1.1), and our roof coating guide makes the same point: a coating over wet insulation won't fix it.

Interactive tool 3 of 4

How much rubber roof coating do you need?

Divide the roof area by the product's coverage per coat, multiply by the number of coats, and add about 10% for waste. The catch: products called rubber range from 15 to 125 sq ft per gallon per coat, so the pail count means little until you know the dry film thickness it leaves behind.

Wet mils vs. dry mils

A gallon is 231 cubic inches. Spread it over 100 sq ft and the wet film is 16 mils (thousandths of an inch); the rule is wet mils = 1,604 ÷ sq ft per gallon. Then the water or solvent leaves, and only the solids stay. Ames lists its acrylic at 33% solids by volume, so 16 wet mils dries to 5.3, exactly what its data sheet says. Liquid Rubber's RV coating is 46% solids: 32 wet mils at 50 sq ft per gallon, about 14.8 dry. Polyurea is 100% solids, so what's sprayed is what stays.

How we calculated this: gallons = area × (1 + waste) × coats ÷ coverage per coat; wet mils per coat = 1,604 ÷ coverage; dry mils = wet × volume solids, or the maker's stated film where solids aren't published; primer = area × (1 + waste) ÷ 187.5 sq ft/gal (midpoint of Liquid Rubber's 175–200). Prices are single retail observations on September 27, 2026 (maker stores and Home Depot), before tax and shipping. The 10% waste allowance is our assumption. Polyurea is priced installed, $3–$6 per sq ft from our roof coating guide.

Why cost per mil is the number to watch

Henry's 587 acrylic is the cheapest pail per square foot in this set, about $0.46 for two coats before waste, but Henry doesn't publish its solids, so you can't know the dry film. Ames' acrylic costs $0.71 a square foot for a documented 10.6 mils, about $0.067 per square foot per mil (the calculator adds waste, so its figures run a little higher). Liquid Rubber's RV coating lands near $0.081 per mil, and the butyl near $0.080 at its stated 20 mils. A pro-sprayed polyurea roof at $3–$6 installed and 60–100 mils works out to roughly $0.03–$0.10 per mil, with labor included. Thickness is what you're buying. Price it that way.

RV rubber roofs

RVs are priced by the foot. An acrylic roll-on job runs $500–$1,000 and gets redone every three to five years; a sprayed seamless roof is about $170–$210 per linear foot; a dealer tear-off and new EPDM or TPO membrane runs $7,000–$18,000 (our RV roof business guide).

Coating costs are materials only, with EPDM primer on the acrylic, asphalt and silicone coats; your labor, cleaners, tape and rollers are extra. Whole applications are counted, so a coat applied late in your horizon counts in full; the per-year figure evens that out. Every coating assumes a sound membrane underneath.

How we calculated this: applications = years ÷ life, rounded up; total = applications × cost per sq ft × area, in current dollars with no inflation; cost per year of service = cost ÷ life, which doesn't penalize a coat applied late in your horizon. DIY defaults are the material costs above (Ames acrylic, Liquid Rubber sealant, EPDM Coatings butyl, Henry 887). Contractor defaults are Angi's 2026 midpoints: acrylic $1.20, liquid rubber $2.63 (used for asphalt and butyl), silicone $2.00. Polyurea $4.50 is the midpoint of our guide's $3–$6; a new EPDM roof $7.00 is the midpoint of HomeGuide's $4–$10. Default lives are our picks inside each published range. Every coating option assumes the membrane underneath is sound; if the checker says replace, only the last row is real.

Step by step

How to apply rubber roof coating on an EPDM roof

Repair first, clean with a non-petroleum cleaner, let it dry completely, prime or activate exactly as the coating maker says, and test a patch. Then roll the full rate in the number of coats specified, cross-direction, and keep the roof dry for as long as the product needs to cure. Most failures trace to the first three steps.

  1. Inspect and fix the roof itself

    Find soft spots, open laps and punctures. Wet insulation gets replaced, not coated; the IRC bars re-covering a water-soaked roof (R908.3.1.1). Repair seams with EPDM seam tape and primer, the way the ERA describes: clean, prime, apply a laminated patch.

  2. Clean with the right cleaner

    The ERA's prep for acrylic is a pressure wash with a detergent solution. Dicor warns against cleaners with petroleum solvents, harsh abrasives or citrus. Liquid Rubber wipes seams and edges with acetone on a white rag, and says never to pour acetone onto the roof.

  3. Dry it completely

    Every maker in this guide wants a dry, frost-free surface. Coat a damp roof and you trap the water under the film.

  4. Prime or activate

    Use the coating maker's EPDM step, not a generic one: Dicor's Part 1 cleaner/activator (1 qt per 125 sq ft, rinsed off), Liquid Rubber's EPDM & TPO Primer (4–5 dry mils at 175–200 sq ft per gallon; it stays tacky, so topcoat as soon as it dries), or GacoRoof's E5320 epoxy primer if its adhesion test fails.

  5. Test a patch

    Ames, Liquid Rubber and our own roof coating guide all call for a small test area; GacoRoof sells a kit with results in 24 hours. Pull on it. If it peels clean, stop and call the maker.

  6. Apply the full rate

    Spread the stated coverage per coat and check it with a wet-film gauge. Liquid Rubber has you alternate direction each coat and finish in the direction of slope. Bridge seams with fabric or tape where the maker's system includes it.

  7. Protect the cure

    Dicor: keep the roof free of rain and dew for 48 hours. Liquid Rubber: no rain, fog or dew forecast within 24 hours. Ames: full cure takes 7–10 days. EPDM Coatings: it cures only on days above 50°F.

Flat roofs

Ponding water and flat rubber roofs

Standing water doesn't hurt EPDM itself (ERA), but it's hard on many coatings. Acrylics soften and lose adhesion under sustained ponding (our roof coating guide). If water sits more than 48 hours after rain, fix the drainage or choose a coating rated for ponding, such as silicone or a sprayed membrane.

Code points the same way. The IRC wants liquid-applied roofing on a design slope of at least ¼ in. per foot (R905.15.1). The ERA's fixes for flat roofs are drains in the low spots, crickets and saddles, and tapered insulation. And read the fine print: EPDM Coatings' warranty excludes damage from "the absence of positive drainage," even though the product is marketed as taking standing water 365 days a year.

If ponding is the whole problem and the EPDM is sound, remember the ERA's point: the membrane doesn't mind. A coating doesn't have to be the answer. When it is, our silicone roof coating guide covers the ponding-rated option, and flat roof waterproofing covers the sprayed one.

Other roofs

Rubber roof coating on shingles, metal, TPO and mobile homes

Rubber coatings get sold for every roof, but they don't suit every roof. Shingles are the one to skip; metal, TPO and mobile homes have their own rules.

Asphalt shingles: don't

DOE says field-coating shingle roofs "can create moisture retention issues, may void the shingle manufacturer's warranty, and is not recommended." Kool Seal's silicone says "Not for use on roof shingles." Shingles shed water by overlap; sealing them traps it.

TPO and PVC

Different chemistry from EPDM, different prep. Liquid Rubber has you scuff TPO and PVC with 120-grit sandpaper before priming; Dicor uses a TPO-specific primer under its silicone. More in TPO roof waterproofing.

Metal roofs

Fasteners, seams and rust come first. Acrylic, silicone and polyurea all work on metal with the right primer; our roof coating guide has the substrate table.

Mobile homes and plywood decks

Mobile homes have their own roof types and coverage math; see our mobile home roof coating guide. On plywood or OSB, Liquid Rubber wants wood moisture below 15% before coating.

Avoid these

Common rubber roof coating mistakes

  • Buying by the word "rubber." Ask for the TDS and SDS, and look for an ASTM spec.
  • Coating a roof that didn't need it. Sound EPDM needs cleaning and inspection, not a coating (ERA).
  • Coating over wet insulation or open seams. The water stays; the coating just hides it.
  • Cleaning EPDM with petroleum or citrus cleaners. Dicor says they can cause "irreparable damage" and void the warranty.
  • Skipping the primer or activator. Our RV guide calls EPDM a low-surface-energy substrate. That's why makers specify one.
  • Silicone caulk anywhere on the roof. Nothing bonds over it later.
  • Acrylic over old silicone. It peels. Over silicone, only silicone.
  • Spreading too thin. The dry-film and warranty numbers assume the full stated rate, in the stated number of coats.
  • Rain on a fresh coat. Dicor wants 48 dry hours; Liquid Rubber wants no rain, fog or dew in the forecast for 24.
  • Not calling the membrane maker while the roof is still under warranty.
ArmorThane applicators

Where sprayed polyurea fits, and where it doesn't

We make polyurea, the "spray-on rubber" that pros apply with plural-component rigs. ArmorFlex UV is our two-component, 100% solids aliphatic polyurea, formulated to stay color-stable in sunlight. It goes on as a seamless membrane at whatever thickness the job calls for: 60–100 mils on roofs, 120 on an RV. That's roughly 3 to 10 times the documented dry film of the acrylic and butyl pails above.

It isn't the answer for every rubber roof. A sound commercial EPDM roof under warranty should be left alone. A single leak needs a patch. On a roof you'll sell in three years, a good acrylic is the smarter spend. Where polyurea earns its price: RV roofs chalked thin with failing seams and fixtures, flat roofs with foot traffic, and owners on their second or third recoat who want to stop recoating. The substrate still needs prep and a bonding primer on EPDM, and any applicator who skips that conversation is the wrong one. More in ArmorFlex UV and our elastomeric coating guide.

Straight answers

Rubber roof coating FAQ

What is rubber roof coating?

It's a marketing name for any liquid roof coating that cures to a flexible, rubbery film, not a single material. Under that label you'll find asphalt emulsions, acrylic latex, silicone, solvent-borne butyl, SEBS rubbers and sprayed polyurea. The data sheet, or the ASTM spec the pail names (D6083 acrylic, D6694 silicone, D1227 asphalt), tells you which one you're buying. The label decoder helps.

Is liquid rubber roof coating any good?

Some are, for the right job. One popular "liquid rubber" is a water-based asphalt sealant (40–60% asphalt per its SDS) that its maker rates at 5–10 years before recoating and applies thick, at 15 sq ft per gallon on flat roofs. That makes it a capable patch-and-seal product, not a reflective or long-life roof. Judge any liquid rubber by its data sheet: chemistry, dry film thickness and whether it names your roof type.

Can you coat an EPDM rubber roof?

Yes. The EPDM Roofing Association says acrylic coatings can be applied directly to a prepared EPDM surface, usually after a pressure wash with a detergent, and that you should contact the membrane maker first about compatibility and warranty. Most coating makers also specify an EPDM primer or activator. Test a patch before you coat the whole roof.

What is the best coating for an EPDM roof?

On a well-drained roof, an acrylic made for EPDM, over the maker's primer or activator, is the budget pick. Where water ponds, silicone with its EPDM primer holds up better but commits every future recoat to silicone. For long life, foot traffic or an RV roof that's chalked thin, a pro-sprayed polyurea membrane at 60–120 mils. And many sound EPDM roofs need no coating at all.

Can you use silicone on an EPDM roof?

Silicone caulk, no: Dicor says it "will not adhere to the EPDM rubber," and tape, sealant and coatings won't bond over its residue later. A silicone roof coating, yes, inside the maker's system: Dicor applies its silicone over a cleaner/activator, and GacoRoof may call for an epoxy primer on aged EPDM after a 24-hour adhesion test. After that, only silicone will stick to the roof.

Does a rubber roof need to be coated?

Usually not. The EPDM Roofing Association says EPDM needs no special coating or surface treatment to reach its life expectancy, and HomeGuide says an EPDM roof typically doesn't need one. Coat it for a specific reason: a white surface in a hot climate, a thinning RV membrane, or many small repairs you want under one film.

How long does rubber roof coating last?

It depends on the chemistry and the dry film. Published figures run 5–10 years for an asphalt "liquid rubber" (its maker), 7–20 years for acrylic (HomeGuide), 10–15 for silicone, and 15–25 for sprayed polyurea (our roof coating guide). Thin films and standing water shorten all of them.

How much does rubber roof coating cost?

Installed, cost guides put "liquid rubber" at $1.50–$3.50 per square foot (HomeGuide 2024; Angi 2026), acrylic at $0.65–$1.75 and silicone at $1.50–$2.50 (Angi 2026). DIY materials run about $0.46–$2.93 per square foot at September 2026 prices, plus about $0.48 for an EPDM primer. A new EPDM roof costs $4–$10 per square foot (HomeGuide).

Is liquid EPDM the same as an EPDM roof membrane?

Not necessarily. EPDM sheet roofing is defined by ASTM D4637, and none of the seven standards the IRC lists for liquid-applied roofing is written for liquid EPDM. The best-known "liquid EPDM" maker describes its own product as liquid butyl rubber, a different synthetic rubber. Ask for the TDS and SDS before you buy.

Can you put rubber roof coating over shingles?

We wouldn't. The U.S. Department of Energy says field-coating asphalt shingle roofs can create moisture retention issues, may void the shingle warranty and is not recommended, and silicone makers such as Kool Seal exclude shingles. Shingles shed water by overlapping; a coating can trap it.

Can you paint a black rubber roof white?

Yes, usually with an acrylic roof coating. The EPDM Roofing Association says acrylic coatings can go on prepared EPDM, and latex paints can too once the membrane maker confirms compatibility. A reflective roof can stay more than 50°F cooler in sun (DOE), but in cold climates the winter heating penalty can cancel the savings.

How many coats of rubber roof coating do I need?

Whatever the maker specifies, at its stated rate. Acrylics are typically two coats at 100–125 sq ft per gallon each (Ames, Henry, Dicor), some silicones and butyls go on in one coat at about 50–67 sq ft per gallon, and Liquid Rubber's asphalt sealant goes on at 15 sq ft per gallon on flat roofs. The calculator turns that into gallons, dry mils and cost.

What is the best rubber roof coating for an RV?

Start with the membrane: many towables have thin EPDM (Dicor's is .035 in.) or TPO. For a DIY recoat, use a system made for RV EPDM with its cleaner or primer, such as Dicor's two-coat acrylic or silicone, and keep petroleum cleaners off the roof. If the roof is chalked thin with failing seams and you want to stop recoating, a sprayed polyurea roof runs about $170–$210 per foot; see our RV roof replacement cost guide.
