- Roof coating with Henry Tropic Cool.
I start seeing the Sands( grits or granules...) from the Shingle of my roof came off when it rain so I just looking a product that can withstand the weather as the same time protect my roof. I found this product at Home Depot, it's a little expensive but very satisfy with the result. It coating, sealing, and keep my roof cool.
Good product to extend the life of my roof.
I used total of 8 buckets/40 gallons for this project. In the video, I missed count and mention 6 buckets.

My neighbor did his the same exact way except he used the elastometric Henry's and that was 8 years ago. I love all the UA-cam experts telling you how it won't work or how the shingles have to breathe. Bla bla bla. Good job
Wow what a difference. Thank you for your great video.
That's the best stuff on earth, excellent alternative to replacing your roof . Well worth the investment. Easy application process. So much less messy than your usual roof replacement. Coming from a professional that's been in the roofing industry for over 15yrs.
Thanks for taking the time to show this. I have the same problem and this looks like a good solution for me to try
Yes, I was in your position then a friend told me about this product. His advice to me are "Don't do it early in the morning since moisture (fog) may present overnight on your roof, and do it when the roof is cool (not high noon) so it won't dry up fast on you". He also use this same stuff on his leaking RV roof.
good bang for the buck. I will consider this for my roof soon
You explained this well!!
Cool, glad to hear my video is helpful. Thank you.
Dave, this is a great video.. do you have an email, or can you please email me? I would like to know how the roof is holding up. Thanks michaelbarahona007@gmail.com
Wow ! 🙌🙏 Very helpful 🙌😇🙏
Really good video. Thank you.
Thanks for taking the time to put this video together for us in order to give us an idea of how to do this! Thanks for the various tips and tricks!
Don't ever seal coat a shingle roof.
@@renereyes3311 please explain. Thanks.
@@renereyes3311 why ???
@@EnriqueTj don't worry they always say, So the shingles can breathe or something like that. My neighbor did his exactly like this guy did and that was 8 or more years ago. He used an elastometric type but basically same concept.
@@renereyes3311 You don’t know what your talking about. I know several professional painters that do asphalt roof all the time.
It adds years of life to your roof.
Great video very helpful, Thank you
Thank you! Great Ideas, I'm looking into doing this in my home. 🙏
Good video. Thank you.
They make a Henry’s specifically for Aluminum. Works great. Thanks for the video. I’m about to do mine.
Ummmm…….Speechless!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was faced with a 15k roof replacement on my house in Tucson Arizona with a flat roof dark color material that starting to degrade. This product dramatically reduced the heat in the house and even on a hot day the roof is cool to the touch. That was in 2019 and the roof is still in good condition. I noticed all the neighbors have it on their roofs now.
Great video.
This dude veitnam , no doubt .. du maaa 😢
Thx u sir
you can take the roller and paint brush and put them in a plastic bag and put them in your fridge or freezer and then use again next day, no need to throw away.
1) Gray color absorb less hit than dark shingles I have
2) That coat of paint looks like is going to protect my shingles
I'm definitely going to do it
Make sure you take your time and put a thick coat especially the area where the single over lap and the gap in between.
@@truerenegade1095 Hi, this looks like a good product... are you still happy with it? also how long will it last? I live in SW Florida... my roof looks like yours its 18 years old... thanks again for your time explaining this product...
Defently you apply it on cool roof.. that's why roofers work early in the morning or at night with lights tar shingles heat up and turns soft every time you pivot your feet you remove the sand and Rip tiles especially on slopped Roof plus it's Miserable working in the heat ..it's like a Mechanic working on a hot engine ...Great Vid my friend. ..but I would emerge the whole roller in the bucket to get better coverage and time no need to worry about Dripping on Roof just roll it ...
I saw one You Tube video made by Perkins Roofing Corp. claiming that if you put coating on a shingle roof the insurance will no longer cover the home, and it can cause mold under the roof making the house unlivable and be unable to sale. I don't know but I think I am going to try it anyway, or at least try some kind of sealant. I can't afford a new roof.
Thank
Hello, I am curious to see how it's holding up?
I used an all silicone sealer too, just a different brand which I believe is just a little better, APCO 576, available at Lowe’s. Worked wonderful on my 5th wheel rv roof.
Thank you for the video. I have not decided which brand to use instil I watched this video.
Don't ever seal coat a shingle roof. Unless it's an emergency repair and you're planning on re-roofing in the future
That product is not for shingle roofs so I’m sorry he doesn’t know what he is talking about it’s only for flat roof
@@renereyes3311 ya cayate Reyes.
Los shingles no estan pegados en la parte de abajo.
Zopenco.
@@manuelrivera6163 if it works for flat roofs why not a slanted roof where the rain runs off much easier??
I just priced this against new roofing materials. 30 squares..
Tropicool..$5,150 plus tax just for the silicone..no rollers, brushes etc !
New roof using GAF Timberline HDX with tar paper ,ridge vents , all new pipe covers..new drip edge etc.
$4,890.
I can have the old tore off and new put on for $60 a square.
Henry has jumped the shark with their prices on this stuff.
They are waaaaaaaaaay to proud of that stuff ! When it first came out it cost less than half what it cost now in just a few years. Its no longer a viable option to a new roof .
I wanted to use it really bad but that price is just plain ridiculous ...not to mention all the work i would have to do putting it over architectural shingles...its just not an option anymore. Henry jumped the shark !
Have you inspected in the attic to see if there is any effect on the decking after a few years?
Hi I am thinking of doing the same thing to my roof. Will it be too much to get and updated video showing the roof and attic from inside?
Awesome video, I truly appreciate videos like this one. How much did this project cost roughly?
It's about $260 for 5-gallon bucket
Hello True Renegade. I have been considering doing the same thing as a test before reroofing even though Henry does not recommend this practice on asphalt shingle. My roof does have a leak however and it's in worse shape than yours. How is it holding up? Thanks.
So far so good here. It hold up very well. I didn't see any bubble or damage area and mine doesn't leak. I think the best is to take your time and apply a thick coat. Do it when the roof is cool and dry. Don't do it early in the morning because of the moister from overnight. When I done mine, I start from 10AM to noon, and 4PM to 7PM. One bucket at the time. The first coat is probably the hardest since it will absorb this stuff because the roof surface is rough. Good luck on your project.
any update? I am thinking of doing this to my roof as well
Great video, just what I was looking for. If you can coat roof cheaply every few years, I don't think there is need to ever replace your asphalt shingle roof
So so so wrong.
@@snakeinthegrak8969 why?
I thought this was only recommend for flat roof or roof rolls? Maybe I’m wrong if I am I wouldn’t mind doing it to my roof.
After hearing many roofers say don't paint your roof I was skeptical cause they may say that so as not to hurt their livelihood. One roofer pulled off the shingles of a painted roof to expose the plywood had retained moisture and rotted the plywood. Not sure if this is a possibility with a painted roof, but if true the money you think your saving may be lost with the added cost of repairs.
I contacted Henry's and they said it is not recommended for shingled roofs because of potentially not sealing between the shingles causing mold.
Thank you for the video. It is very helpful! I really like the work you did and I think your roof looks great. My asphalt shingle roof is losing granules. I emailed the manufacturer (Henry) with questions about Tropi-cool. In addition to other subjects, I was curious why the Tropi-Cool in gray is not referenced on the Henry website (only the white and tan colors are referenced on the website). I received a one sentence, snarky response that this [Tropi-Cool] product is not recommended for use on asphalt shingles. Of course, the test will be to see how your roof holds up in the next 5-10 years. Please keep us posted!
I'm glad that you do your own research. At the Home Depo where I bought it, they only have white and gray. I remember that it's the only product in the store mention aged shingle and asphalt under uses on the outside of the bucket. I didn't choose white because it will give your roof an all Christmas season look, but it's an ideal color because it reflected the heat better than darker color. But since I'm a retired Navy guy, so I chose gray like the US ship color. I'm not sponsor or get pay by any product I use in all of my videos so what you see are actual hand on in the video. When I starting to see my roof loosing the granules, I was just looking for a product to stop it because that is an indication that the roof is wearing out. So far it keep my house cool during the summer of last year and I think where I'm at, it's the end of the raining season and I have not notice any leak. So far so good so I can't complain. I will go up there in 2 months (1 year since I put that stuff on my roof) to check on it and give this video an update. If everything look good, I'm thinking paint the outside of my garage where it constantly under the sun and it's a warming room in my house.
@@truerenegade1095 "If it doesn't move, paint it!" Seafaring common sense. (I was Coast Guard -GM2....lordy, we painted those old ships/cutters non-stop). Your roof looks EXACTLY like mine. I'm going to do this also. I don't care what the "experts" say. It makes too much sense. Thanks so much for posting this and showing that it really works. I really appreciate it.
@@TexasBarnRats At the time, I just looking a way to stop my roof from losing the granules. So far this product is holding up well. I did not see any deterioration or bubble develop yet. Last month I decided to painted the side of my house with this stuff to prevent water leak through the cracks of the wall. Yes it's the most expensive "paint" I ever use, but from what I see, it wroth it.
So how's your roof holding up now?
I bet just a mix of old exterior paints would work also
Great idea. Please try it and let me know how well it holding up.
Thank you so much for making this video. We're looking to Tropi-Cool our asphalt shingle roof. This video is invaluable! What's your opinion now, a year and a half out? Any problems? Would you do anything differently? Thank you in advance, and good job on your roof!
@barefoot arizona I did. We're in South Florida. Our roof had some small leaks. Something had to be done. Our wet season starts in March, so in February I coated the roof. I hand painted every seam with a brush, on my knees, with BlackJack white elastomeric roof patch. This method was recommended by a homeowner in the Lowe's comment section. It took 50 gallons for a 1250 sq foot roof. Then I put 3 coats of Blackjack Kool-1000 over it. I did not use a roller, I used dollar store brooms and brushed on. Another youtuber turned me on to that hack - much easier than rollers. We've had a super rainy season and so far all's well.
@barefoot arizona Thank you:) Me too!
How do you fill the cracks two days later, a brush or the rolling method again?
If I have to do it again I would use a brush to cover all the crack areas, wait for it to dry (1 or 2 days later), then use roller as the final finish coating.
@@truerenegade1095 Thank you so much for responding!
how has it been holding? how often do you need to clean\maintain it?
Haven't touch it since put it on. Came up last summer checking for any problem and find none. So far so good. Will go up there this july/august to check it again.
How about an update video. Is the Henry product still holding up? Any leaks or other issues?
I'm waiting for the rain where I'm at. Got up to the roof and did not see any crack. During the hot summer this year, my family noticed that the house is much cooler. If this hold up in the rain season, I definitely will use this to paint on the side of the house to keep out moister and reduce noise through the wall.
@@truerenegade1095 How's your roof doing?
@@truerenegade1095 so you think your ac works a lot less now to keep your home cool in summer.?..sounds like this product can also pay for it self on electric bill savings in a year or so... PS how big was your roof? my house is 2200 square feet total on roof roughly... maybe 10 buckets will be needed.. thanks
@@roadstar499 I installed the window AC in the summer but wife and kids didn't use it. They said that it's not hot enough. The only thing I can do is smile.
Oh and may I ask does it come in clear ? Because I really don’t want to change the color thanks
I don't think so, at the time of this video, I only see White and gray at Home Depo. Brownish tera color have to special order depending where you live.
Very helpful video. Like a few others, I asked the manufacturer Henry why they say do not use on shingles. They said might curl shingles *while curing*. Clearly you had no curing/curling issues. I'm guessing it's because you applied it when the roof temp was appropriate. One question I have that I didn't see answered is....where roughly are you located? And can you verify you did your roof around August?
I live in San Diego and I posted this video at the end of Jun 2018, So I did this roof roughly around the last week of May or beginning of Jun 2018. When you put this stuff on, do it in the morning around 9 to make sure all the moister from the previous night are evaporated, or in the evening around 5 pm when the roof is cool. Don't do it at high noon or this stuff will evaporate too quick . May be I put on a thick coat that why I don't have curing problem, Last June 2021, I painted the exterior of my house with this stuff. So far so good for me,
Many thanks for the info. All makes sense to me
Question, how long do you need to wait in between coats? Will be doing two coats on mine this week, but I don’t want the first coat to crack when stepping on it. How long would you recommend waiting in between two coats? Thanks....
24 hours to make sure it completely dry.
@@truerenegade1095 Will it be slippery to walk on after it cures in 24 hours? My roof is like yours in terms of angle/degree, it’s not that steep. But the idea of walking on 100% silicone for a second coat has me concerned that it would be like walking on a sheet of ice having no grip. Should I prep for that?
@@StreetLethalRacing Good Safety question!!!
It was not slippery to me at all because my roof is completely dry. Don't do it too early in the morning since there may be moister left over at night. When you climb up there, If you put your hands on the roof and it feel wet, don't go up there. Wait a few hour for the sun to dry it out. The best time to start is around 3 or 4 PM. I paint 1 bucket (5 gallons) a day, and the following day, I paint the adjacent area until the roof completed.
@@truerenegade1095 Wanted to give you an update, I applied the gray silicone last Friday because I had several leaks. Believe it or not the shingles (brown) sucked up all of the paint right away, one bucket only did a small 100 x 100 foot area. Had to buy three more 4.75 gallons at $230.00 a pop to do the whole house. Rained for the first time today, no leaks so far. Very happy, and very glad I found this video. 👍
@@StreetLethalRacing where do you buy them at $230 ?
I started out with my shed, and it works so well that I decided to put this on my roof. I got it @ $260.
How does it hold up? I am thinking of doing the same thing to my roof. I also live in FL. have you had to re coat sense 2018?
so far so good for me. no recoat since 2018. Do plan to recoat in the future. Since this stuff is keep my roof cool. Another coat will keep it thicker/cooler. In July of this year, I coated the exterior of house with this stuff. This just the test since this stuff work so good on my roof.
@@truerenegade1095 Excellent! Thanks for the reply. I’ll be waiting for the winter and I’ll give it a try.
A question please : I need to put a sealer before the paint? And , How can I clean the roof shingles before the paint?
angelangelangelist leaf blower will be enough for these type of coatings, they are super sticky
I think a good rain is going to clean your shingles. wait for the roof to dry and than go for
Does this stop leaking ? They want $20,000 to do my roof replacement and by no means do I have the money. Thanks for the video and am waiting for a reply
That depending on how big of the crack or hole.
A thick coat will fix the minor crack. This stuff is like apply a coat of silicone rubber on your roof so water will not soak into your roof. Take your time and apply a thick coat should sealed the leak.
Please don't take offense to this you did good ok. It would have been best to pressure wash the roof first with a mild spray bit to not remove the granules just the dirt on the roof. There is a lot of dust and debris you can't see. This helps with better adhesion and enables you to spread the product further saving you money on your final coat.
Now you want to purchase a white mastic product along with a 3 to 4 inch wide paint brush to apply the mastic. Not sure if Henry makes this product but Apoc makes it and it is called Apoc 581 silicone patch. You brush that around all your pipes and vents and all the areas that are cracked. Then you want to apply a 6inch wide layer of polyester immediately after you paint your first coat of the 581 silicone patch white mastic. You mesh it in the layer the same way a drywall installer meshes the drywall tape into his first layer of mud. Then once you complete that you paint right over the 6 inch polyester material with the Apoc 581 silicone patch. Basically you paint a layer of white mastic then the polyester on top then a second application of the white silicone patch and you done with that phase. Be sure to do that to all the valleys on the roof as well to ensure a good deal with no air pockets. Keep in mind the black tar is not so good to use because it bleeds a yellow color through the silicone paint. So always use my above advise. You can do this also for your gutters too. Just apply on the inside joints but be sure you pressure wash the gutters and sand off any rusted areas before to apply the 3 course prep with mastic and polyester. Once you have done all that you then are ready to apply your Henry's tropi cool silicone. Apoc's brand is known as 585 Armor Flex. Same thing as the Henry product you used. 2 gallons a square if I'm not mistaken to paint on the final coat. I hope this was helpful to thank you peace.
Can you paint roof with silicone coating painting with an airspray machine? I wasn't able to find one for that
I did it. My roof was 145 degrees. After i could sit on it, it was 119 degrees
"AFTECH 72
How many gallons did you spend on the roof and how many coats"
Hi AFTECH 72,
I received your comment below through my email and for what ever reasons, it's not under or tie to the comments section of this posting. Anyway, for your answer, I use total of 8 buckets that = to 40 gallons for this roof. Each bucket is 5 gallons. When I started this project, I use to 1 coat with the thick roller (6 bucket/30 gallons), then I noticed that the gaps/cuts between the single section is not completely fill, so I end up using additional 2 buckets/10 gallons and the paint brush and fill all the gaps/cuts up. This house is 3 bebs/1bath home. I think if I decide to put a second coat on, it will be less because the first coat will give you a smooth surface. The first coat is hard because the single surface is very rough and when you roll the paint on, it will pick up all the loose grit/sand/granule (s) on the single to your roller.
Below are the totals supplies I used for this project:
1 Roller stick (telescope type)
1 Heavy duty Roller tip
6 Thick rollers(12")
4 paint brushes (to fill up the gaps)
8/40 gallons of Tropiccool paint (Gray)
Keep in mind that I took me 2 weeks for this project and every time I take a break (musle fatige/cramps...), I start out the next day with a new brush/paint brush because the Tropicool will harden up overnight.
True Renegade materials cost? Thank you
Hi, did you do any prep work to the roof prior to applying Tropi-cool?
No prep work on this project. The roof look clean, no dead leaf, bird poop, or any accumulation of dust or dirt as I can see, so I just applied the coating.
do you need hoa to approve? it changed the roof color
you need to ask your HOA. I don't live in HOA property so I don't know.
Hi. Thanks for sharing this. I've been thinking about doing this for some time but the roofing material manufacturers do not recommend using elastomeric coatings over comp shingle roofs. They told me it would "void the roof warranty." Also, the product you are using specifically states: "Not recommended over shingles of any kind." So my question is, how is it working for you? Notice any buckling, voids, any problems? I would like to understand why it is not recommended. Thanks again.
I'm not sure where you get the info that "Not recommended over shingles of any kind." I look on the label of the bucket under Uses, it stated that it can be use for Asphalt roof, shingle roof, and others.... Anyway, I will go up there and check it out in August to see if it show any sign of damage. August is exactly 1 year since I put it on. So far since I put it on, I don't have to use AC so the house seem cooler and I have not notice any leak (hopefully not). I will inspect the roof in August and update this video.
@@truerenegade1095 Hi and thanks for getting back to me. That application specification came directly from a gallon can of Henry's Tropi-Cool 100% silicone white roof coating. I also found lots of info about doing this coating over shingles, like this from Miami: www.hometownroofingcontractors.com/blog/cool-roof-shingle-coating-think-again. So, I am doing my homework, because replacing a roof is expensive. Glad to hear you've not had problems. Please keep me posted. I would like to know, in scientific terms, WHY this is not recommended by the coating product manufacturers, by roofing product manufacturers as well as installers. Like you and many others, watching our roof shed its protective granules is totally depressing.
@@truerenegade1095 it clearly states on Henry's technical sheet, not to be used over asphalt shingles. When I queried this directly by email, Henry responded by saying the product is known to 'curl' shingles. Personally, I can't imagine why that would be so since they state shrinkage to be minimal so I feel they are simply avoiding any claims.
Contractors presumably, would prefer to charge for a completely new roof.
Can't use it over shingles? Weird. So they limit the use to flat roofs?
@@mojetrouba dude thats a roofing contractor blog lololol. sometimes in life you must use your own common sense cause in life there is more than one way to skin a cat
Asphalt shingles expand and contract and moisture evaporates away into the air. This is not the coating to use . Use a sealer that lets moisture evaporate.
But isn't the roof is also plastic black shingles? It might peel the same way too. I need to do more research on people that said it really does not work that well I think.
Your proof that if you take care of a roof it will last lifetime's . I wonder about by painting the roof it will trap mold inside and the mold will grow inward since shingles breath.
Well the product claim that it's a lifetime, but only time will tell.
There is a lot cheaper ways for roofing waterproof. But the industries won't just adopt it so they can be paid for more work hours and labor. The whole roofing idea is just disgusting. I mean just me as who studied appropriate technology for the building.
What are dimensions of your house
1790 square feets
Replace those nails with screws and a rubber flat washer and then tar.
Great idea bro!!!
how is it now?
So far so good. It's already over 1 year and I did not see any crack, peel off, or leaking.
I want to know how much cooler your house is
Yup
any leaks? it's expensive now
Almost 5 years now, so far no leak 🤞😁🤞
@@truerenegade1095 cool thanks
Breathable shingles blah blah blah. Coat the shingles, seal the in between gaps but don't seal the bottom keep it detach to top or bottom shingles. Just add tar to keep it shut.
what do you mean by not sealing the bottom keep it to detach?
Do you need to use a primer for this product 🤔
it is recommended but I didn't use it on mine.
I see this is their most expensive roof product $240 for 5 gallons is not cheap at all...
It was $225 when I put it on.
Flip the bucket upside down, drip it all out.
Is there a reason why you didnt replace the roof ???
cost
why does he need to replace the roof? you people always talk like its only one way to skin a cat. its his fucking roof he wants to save his money for other things if it works it works
I'm guessing it's because he doesn't have $8-15k lying around, or has a better use for that money
Because it's expensive. That's a pretty good reason
Henry's doesn't recommend using on shingles so keep in mind the lifetime warranty probably wouldn't be honored. They do recommend 1.5 gallons per 100 sq feet and waiting 2 to 6 hours between coats and applying coats 1 at north to south and the next east to west. Apply when roof is 50°f to 120°f. Prep work is most important. Good luck DIY'ers.
You are 100% correct that Henrys silicone Tropicool coating is not recommended for asphalt shingles ,im a retired Journeyman/Master roofer & Waterproofer ,im not a DIY guy ,i begged my neighbor not to coat his 10 year old 3 Tab tan asphalt shingle roof with this Home Depot product ,i tried to steer him twords buying a white ceramic coating made for coating asphalt roof products from Garland Roof Products ,he had needed 5 pails to coat his roof using that silicone garbage so at $99 per pail he wanted to get off cheap for $500 ,i tried explaining how silicone based products have very poor adhesive " bonding " issues ,i even showed him how easy it was to peel off the silicone caulking he used on his windows ,one yank and a 6ft stretch of silicone came off his window ,since he was hell bent on using junk Home Depot coatings i explained that there is a primer made that architects who still spec silicone spec to be applied to any surface any silicone based product touches ,he refused to buy the Johns Manville silicone primer after the " Experts " in Home Depots roofing & paint depts told him they never heard of a primer for silicone ,i gave up & watched him coat his entire roof twice & gloat over how nice it turned out ,the following spring showed exactly how silicone based coatings dont adhere to shit ,the Michigan snow had peeled huge 5x5 patches of coating off his shingles while other areas were left with a milky white washed look with brown showing through,now painting his roof every soring has became a yearly task ,FYI to all the do it yourself crowd ,in waterproofing each type material sticks best to the same materials,for instance most roofing shingles are asphalt based with ceramic granules set in the asphalt for UV protection ,you have 2 choices for a roof coating that will truly bond with the shingles ,#1 are asphalt based coatings with the #2 being a Ceramic based coating/paint .
I hope it works well for you. The number one problem that this will present to you is that your shingles will no longer function as shingles, and water that gets under shingles here and there may not be able to find its way out. This is not an advisable use for this product, but it is your house, so it's your call. You will not be able to sell a house if it has been treated in this manner.
My roof already showed sign of deteriorate. before I put on this coat. So far it's working good and that is all I can say.
I bought a rental home a year ago that had the asphalt shingles painted. It was noted in the home inspection and I was still able to
purchase the home with no issues.
The owner I purchased from said it had been painted about 5 years prior. No issues were found on the roof or in the attic space.
@@peterdallman4550 painted is not the same as sealed. As long as water can flow out from under the edge of shingles, they will function ok and you can pass inspection. Otherwise...no and no.
Do not do this if you have a serious winter...or lots of rain... you will get mold in your attic and sometimes wood rot
🤣🤣🤣
This stuff went from $230 a five to $380 a five since 2020. Not a great alternative to a new roof at that price. I also read that the product is now thinner than before. Probably in line with everything else..."less for more"..
Bro that roof is fd up real bad. Just save up and get it redone
Over 3 years now and it still good. No leaks. My neighbor replaced her 6 months after I coated my roof and it cost her $20K. I got my done for under 2K so it's worth it.
