I've tried a bunch of different brands, and I'm most impressed with Elastek. It seems to go on easy and hold up well. I was after a colored coating that the big box stores said would be impossible to get, but the Elastek guys mixed it up-no problem. It helps that they have a production facility here in Tucson.
Good luck!

What type of roof are you covering? For old metal roofs, Acramax (sp) works well.

X2 on the Elastek.

When you are done, come do mine.

You sound like my boss

Elastek has three options:
Solar Tek Extreme
Solar Mastic
&
Solar magic #109

Don't suppose anyone has any experiance on superiority of one over the other? I.E. best bang for the buck.

I've only used the Extreme, but I'm happy with it!

I can't really help you with Elastek. On the house we sold this past October, I but on that Henry stuff from Home Despot. I was not really impressed.

several companies make elastomaric coatings. The key is when applying, if just a few pinholes are there, water can get in, and make the system fail. But I am sure you get ALOT of rain in arizona.
