Acrylic is cheapest but degrades in ponding water. Silicone handles ponding well and resists UV. SPF polyurethane adds insulation but costs the most.

Best Candidates

Flat commercial roofs and metal roofs benefit most from coatings. If the existing membrane is intact with no structural issues, coating delays a full replacement by a decade or more.
