What Product Do You Seal Shingles With?

Revitalize Your Roof with SHINGLE SEALER™ from Nationwide Protective Coatings

When it comes to maintaining the longevity and appearance of your shingle roof, finding the right protective solution is crucial. If you’ve ever wondered how to extend the life of your shingles and keep your home looking pristine, you’re in the right place. Let’s dive into how SHINGLE SEALER™ from Nationwide Coatings can be a game-changer for your roofing needs.

What is SHINGLE SEALER™?

SHINGLE SEALER™ is a high-quality product designed specifically to protect and extend the life of asphalt shingles. Nationwide Coatings, a leading name in the coating industry, has crafted this sealer to address the common issues that shingles face, such as weathering, aging, and UV damage. The clear roof sealer penetrates to rejuvenate at the same time it forms a protective, breathable layer over your shingles, shielding them from harsh environmental factors and enhancing their durability. SHINGLE SEALER™ will lock down the granules which is a main reason shingle roofs fail over time.

Benefits of Using SHINGLE SEALER™

1. Extended Roof Lifespan: By sealing your shingles, you add an extra layer of defense against the elements. This helps prevent premature aging and degradation, effectively extending the lifespan of your roof.
2. Reduces Shingle Roof Granule Loss: It will penetrate, rejuvenate and seal the granules on the shingle. This will provide additional useful lifespan for most shingle roofs.
3. Improved Appearance: SHINGLE SEALER™ not only protects but also revitalizes the look of your roof. It can restore the color and sheen of your shingles, giving your home a fresh, polished appearance.
4. Enhanced Resistance: The clear roof sealer helps to improve the resistance of your shingles to water damage, mold, and mildew. This added protection is crucial in areas prone to heavy rainfall or high humidity.
5. Cost-Effective Solution: Regular application of SHINGLE SEALER™ every 7-10 years can prevent the need for more expensive repairs or a full roof replacement, making it a smart investment for property owners.

How to Apply SHINGLE SEALER™

Applying SHINGLE SEALER™ is a straightforward process as a professional or DIY application, but following the manufacturer’s guidelines is essential for achieving the best results. Here’s a general outline:

1. Inspect for Damage: Check for any damaged shingles or underlying issues that need to be addressed before applying the sealer.
2. Clean the Roof: Ensure your roof is free from debris, dirt, and algae. A clean surface allows the sealer to adhere properly.
3. Apply SHINGLE SEALER™: Using a brush, roller, pump up or airless sprayer, apply the SHINGLE SEALER™ evenly across the shingles up to 350 square feet per gallon. Be sure to follow the recommended application rates and techniques provided by Nationwide Protective Coatings.
4. Allow to Dry: Let the sealer dry completely, usually 1-2 hours, before walking on the roof or exposing it to weather. It can vary based on environmental factors across the globe.
5. Regular Maintenance: For ongoing protection and to extend the life of your shingle roof, typically reapply every 7-10+ years, depending on the condition of your roof and local climate.

What Else Can You Seal Shingles With?

While SHINGLE SEALER™ from Nationwide Protective Coatings is an excellent choice, there are other products available that can also be used to rejuvenate, protect and seal shingles to extend the life of the roof. Check out PERMAKOTE® SHINGLE Elastomeric Roof Coating available in any fan deck or custom color as a permeable roof coating for shingle roofs. We would not recommend using a high solids silicone roof coating since it is not breathable or permeable.

Conclusion

SHINGLE SEALER™ from Nationwide Protective Coatings offers a reliable and effective solution to enhance the durability, appearance, and performance of your shingles.
