Most homeowners choose the concrete tiles when it comes to selecting the roofing cover. Such tiles not only come in various designs and colors but also enhance the overall protective strength of your roof. The different manners in which these tiles can be installed, add a new dimension to the beauty of your home.

But owing to rough weather and constant exposure to sunlight, these tiles tend to lose their brightness and polish. The external agents such as dust, air and water attack the tiles and spoil their shine and beauty. The gravity of the situation demands the utilization of a paint that suits your concrete tiles in the most convincing manner.

Start off the campaign by cleaning off the surface area of the roof with brush and hot water. The brush should have fine bristles in order to remove out the debris from the edges of the tiles. Mix some detergent in hot water to enhance the efficiency of your attempt. Rinse the tiles well such that the debris and grease is completely removed from the surface of the tiles.

Walk down to a local paint store and purchase acrylic primer and exterior paint. Also buy the sealer that would help the paint to bind well to the surface of the tiles. Make sure that the paint doesn’t contain any additional component such as latex and is entirely acrylic.

The amount of primer and paint to be purchased depends on the area of your roof. To determine the exact quantity of the paint supplies, make way for an expert roofer and let him suggest the approximate amount of primer and paint that would serve the required purpose. Since he possesses the required experience and expertise, he would always be very close to the exact figures.

Once all the supplies are bought home, take a large-sized brush and prime the tiles with a thin layer of acrylic primer such that no tile is left stranded.

Let the primer dry overnight. Once primed has dried completely, paint each tile of the roof with one coating of the acrylic exterior paint bought. Once the initial coating of the paint has dried off, apply another coating and let it dry overnight.

Next morning, apply a calculated amount of acrylic sealer on each tile which protects the paint from rough weather conditions and ensures a long lasting beauty of your roof.
