Thought I'd post a pic of the garage part of my roof I put a top coat of elastomeric paint on and comment on it. The color is "glacial white" for good reason as you can see. The roof material is a black, flash down, bituminous membrane. I let it weather for a couple of years before I applied the elastomeric coating. The coating required two coats of asphalt emulsion and two coats of the elastomeric coating. The coatings will extend the life of the roof, but the main reason I did it was to lower the heat transfer from insolation. The roof temperature at 10 AM during the summer was around 175 to 180 degrees. After the coating, the temperature at the same time of day was around 110 degrees.
