                            RECOMMENDED SOMAY PAINTS
                         
    For a Premium Quality Repaint Job
    On a Typical Florida Flat Cement Tile or Clay Barrel Tile Roof
                                    (NOT Waterproofing)
     

  Prime Coat:

    SOMAY Product No. 530-01 – (White) "Premium" Acrylic Latex Surface Conditioner.  When
    to a properly prepared, smooth, non-porous surface (like glass) at a theoretical coverage
    rate of 332 sq.ft./gal., it will develop a 2 mil dry film thickness, at an approx. cost of 4¢/sq.ft.
    for 2 mils.

    Alternative Prime Coat – SOMAY Product No. 777-00 (Clear), "PST", Primer.  Apply to a
    properly prepared, smooth, non-porous surface at a maximum rate of 200 sq.ft./gal. to
    develop a 1 mil thick film, at an approx. cost of 5¢ per sq.ft.  ("Clear" coatings provide no
    hide, since they contain no pigment).

  Finish Coat (3 Alternatives):

    A. SOMAY Product No. 8630-01 – (White) SOMAY "STERI-SHIELD"® Fungistatic Paint, a
    very unique 100% Acrylic Latex, Heavy-Duty, Industrial Strength coating that is the most
    resistant of any paint to the growth of mold and mildew on its surface.  Apply to a properly
    prepared, smooth, non-porous surface at a spreading rate of 368 sq.ft./gal. to develop a 2
    mil dry film thickness, at an approx. cost of 8¢/sq.ft. For much longer durability, use two (2)
    finish coats, which will cost approx. 16¢/sq. ft. for 4 mils DFT.

    B. SOMAY Product No. No. 682-01 – (White) "Premium" "Stay-White" 100% Acrylic Latex
    Semi-Gloss Roof Paint.  When applied to a properly prepared, smooth, non-porous
    surface at a theoretical spreading rate of 227 sq.ft./gal., it will develop a 2 mil dry film
    thickness at an approx. cost of 8¢/sq.ft. For much longer durability, use two (2) finish
    coats, totaling 4 mils, which will cost approx. 16¢/sq. ft.

    C. SOMAY Product No. No. 345-01 – (White) "Premium" "Stay-White" Vinyl-Acrylic Latex
    Flat Roof Paint.  When applied to a properly prepared, smooth, non-porous surface at a
    theoretical rate of 230 sq.ft./gal. it will develop a 2 mil dry film thickness at an approx. cost of
    4¢/sq.ft. For much longer durability, use two (2) finish coats, totaling 4 mils, which will cost
    approx. 8¢/sq. ft.

    "Terracotta" is available at $1.00 more per gallon.  Factory Custom Manufactured Colors
    are also available.  Minimum order is 50 gallons of 1 color in 1 product, with non-refundable
    payment-in-full with the order.  Custom Color prices are based on the cost to make each
    color.

 NOTE:  Coverage rates are theoretical for "smooth, non-porous surfaces" (such as glass), and
 assume 100% transfer efficiency.  Rough and/or porous surfaces will reduce spreading rates and
 require the use of considerably more material.  Flat cement roof tiles and clay barrel tiles are
 exceptionally porous, so one should expect to get approximately 150 sq.ft./gal. on the first coat of
 paint applied.  Applicators must make allowances for wastage (normally at least 10% for roller/
 brush application; 20% for airless spray application; 30% for air-atomized spray application).

 NOTE:  The coatings shown are for PAINTING roof tiles, NOT for WATERPROOFING them.
