I've experimented with Chinese products for roofing, but honestly, they're not worth the hassle. The guys at southport roofer near me suggested focusing on reliable brands like Nippon, which are renowned for their quality and durability.

If root tiles, better don't paint. Roofers say very difficult to pinpoint leak after pain.

If flat roof concrete, ok to paint.

obviously yes. primer act like an adherent, ensure that paint stick to the wall. without primer, the paint just touch so so to the wall, it never attacht to it

if done correctly, maybe can last 5 years and won't clot the roof tiles rain water grout.
End of the day, once the paint start to peel or lose the colour, it look much worse than before.

If done wrongly, leaking everywhere and there is no other solutions except need replace the whole tiles





Do remember all the original roof tiles colour are baked to withstand our crazy weather.
Do you think just cleaning and paint over like that will last longer than you think whistling.gif
