Protect, repair, and strengthen an aged roof
GacoFlex A48 Series is an innovative, high-build, fast-cure, acrylic elastomeric roof coating. It offers long roof life, upgraded visual appeal, strong adhesion, high tensile strength, and excellent reflectivity, while reaping the additional advantages of enhanced film build and reduced cure time.
It can be applied as a roof maintenance coating over many existing roof substrates, including single-ply, metal, sprayed-in-place polyurethane foam, and asphalt membranes. GacoFlex A48 provides early rain resistance in as little as 30 minutes, with complete cure through in around 8 hours*.
GacoFlex A48 is designed for maintenance applications for situations where the roof requires a renewal of the membrane surface due to the effects of aging and use.** You can use GacoFlex A48 and GacoRoofFoam together for a total roof replacement solution. Gaco is one of the only sole source suppliers to offer complete foam and acrylic roofing systems, offering peace-of-mind for your investment with the option for full labor and material warranties available.***
Additionally, this single-component acrylic coating can be applied at a thickness of up to 80 wet mils (5 gal/SQ) with a single pass using a standard airless sprayer—even on vertical applications. A48 can eliminate the need for return trips to the job site for second, third, or fourth recoats, allowing contractors to get on and off the roof faster and complete more jobs in a season. Gaco’s innovative roofing products provide you with the consistency, convenience, and performance necessary to take your business to the next level.
Gaco acrylic roof coatings excel in high heat, high UV environments and can significantly improve a roof’s reflectivity, leading to reduced energy costs. If a roof is prone to ponding water and high moisture, we recommend trying a silicone roof coating as an alternative.
