Introduction to Solar Coating
Ever wondered how to keep your roof and water cool even in the scorching summer months?
It is a common struggle: the sun beats down, turning your home into an oven and your water tank into a geyser. Enter Solar Roof Coating—a revolutionary, cost-effective solution designed specifically to combat extreme heat while providing robust waterproofing.
Unlike standard paints that peel and fade, this specialized solar coating is engineered to last. It offers a dual-action defense mechanism: it reflects intense sunlight to lower indoor temperatures and seals surface cracks to prevent water leakage. Whether you have a flat concrete roof or an industrial iron shed, this coating is formulated for versatility and durability, typically lasting a solid 3–5 years.
Developed by the research and development team at Sixer Solutions, this technology is optimized for local climate conditions, ensuring maximum efficiency when you need it most. It is the best solar roof coating for hot climates, offering a simple DIY application process that saves you money on expensive professional labor.
But here’s the secret most homeowners miss when applying roof coatings…
How Solar Coating Works
Reflective Technology Behind Solar Coating
To understand how this works, think of wearing a white t-shirt on a hot day versus a black one. Dark surfaces absorb heat, while light surfaces reflect it. Solar coating mechanism operates on this exact principle, but with advanced chemical engineering.
The coating creates a high-albedo surface (high reflectivity). When applied to your roof or water tank, it acts as a thermal barrier. Instead of the roof absorbing the sun’s energy and transferring it into your living space, the reflective roof coating bounces that thermal energy back into the atmosphere.
This implies that the heat insulation coating doesn’t just slow down heat transfer; it actively rejects it. For water tanks, this is a game-changer. By coating the exterior of the tank, you prevent the water inside from absorbing the ambient heat, keeping your water supply refreshing even during peak afternoon hours. Experts at Sixer Solutions have refined this formula to ensure it remains UV-resistant, meaning the cool roof solution won’t degrade quickly under direct sunlight.
The effect is immediate, but the results last for years — here’s why…
Benefits of Solar Roof Coating
Applying a solar roof coating isn’t just about comfort; it is a smart financial and structural investment. Here is why thousands of homeowners are switching to this energy-saving roof solution:
- Keeps Roof and Water Cool: Drastically lowers surface temperature, making interiors comfortable.
- Waterproofing Protection: Seals micro-cracks, protecting your structure from monsoon rains and leaks.
- Reduces Electricity Bills: With a cooler home, your air conditioner doesn’t have to work as hard, lowering your energy consumption.
- Long-Lasting Durability: Once applied, the coating serves you efficiently for 3–5 years before needing a touch-up.
Solar Coating Benefits Overview
| Benefit | Description | Duration/Impact |
| Cool Roof | Reduces roof surface temperature significantly. | Instant & Ongoing |
| Water Cooling | Keeps water tank contents at a usable temperature. | Continuous |
| Waterproofing | Protects structure from rain damage & leaks. | 3–5 Years |
The technical team at Sixer Solutions confirms that regular use of waterproof roof protection extends the overall lifespan of the building materials beneath it.

Application Guide for Solar Coating
Applying solar coating is straightforward, but precision matters. Follow this step-by-step guide to apply solar roof coating to ensure maximum adhesion and reflectivity.
Tips for Best Results
- Surface Preparation: This is critical. Thoroughly clean the roof or tank surface. Remove all dust, oil, grease, and loose debris. If there is existing fungus or algae, scrub it off with a wire brush.
- Mixing: Open the Sixer Solutions coating bucket. If the consistency is too thick, you may add a small amount of water (refer to the specific product label) and mix well until smooth.
- First Coat: Apply the first coat generously using a large brush or roller. Ensure you fill in any visible cracks. Let this coat dry completely (usually 2–4 hours depending on the sun).
- Second Coat: Apply the second coat perpendicular (cross-wise) to the first one. This ensures double coat coverage and eliminates any missed spots.
- Drying Time: Allow the final coat to cure for at least 24 hours before exposing it to heavy water flow or traffic.
Note: Avoid applying during rain or if rain is forecast within 24 hours.
Most people make this one mistake when applying solar coatings — don’t do it!
Solar Coating for Iron Shed Roofs
While concrete roofs are the most common application, solar coating for iron roofs is an absolute necessity for factories, poultry farms, and warehouses. Metal and iron sheets conduct heat rapidly, making the interior of a shed unbearably hot within minutes of sunrise.
A specialized metal roof heat reduction layer changes the game. By applying the coating to corrugated iron sheets, you prevent the metal from heating up in the first place. This not only cools the interior workspace but also protects the metal from rust and corrosion caused by humidity.
Comparison: Concrete vs. Iron Application
| Feature | Concrete Roof | Iron/Metal Shed |
| Heat Absorption | Slow but retains heat long into the night. | Rapid heating, immediate cooling when sun sets. |
| Coating Benefit | Reduces AC load, prevents cracks. | Prevents “oven effect,” stops rust. |
Using Sixer Solutions products on sheds can significantly improve the lifespan of the metal sheets.
Even industrial sheds can benefit — here’s the surprising effect…
