StrataMax is an innovative elastomeric roof coating combining nano-technology and urethane chemistry that performs as a heat shield protecting asphaltic modified bitumen surfaces from UV degradation and infrared radiation. The nano-technology used in StrataMax replaces commonly-used titanium dioxide and reduces the temperature of the underlying roofing materials by as much as 8% compared to traditional roof coatings. StrataMax is 28% lighter than typical elastomeric coatings at 15 lbs/5 gal (6 kg/18.8 L). The product is non-toxic and contains a proprietary blend of biocides to inhibit the growth of bacteria, algae and fungi.

Method | Description |

Spray | Refer to StrataMax Spray Application Guide. Stir product before use, but do NOT thin. StrataMax can be applied by spray, brush or roller. First, apply one coat of StrataMax to the prepared surface at a rate of 1 gal./100 sq. (0.41 l/ m²). After applying the first coat, top with one coat of the same color StrataMax in a crosshatch pattern at a rate of 1 gal./100 sq. (0.41 l/ m²). Total coverage rate should be 2 gal./100 sq. ft. (0.82 l/m²). |
Brush | Stir product before use, but do NOT thin. StrataMax can be applied by spray, brush or roller. First, apply one coat of StrataMax to the prepared surface at a rate of 1 gal./100 sq.

In lab testing, an asphaltic roofing surface protected by StrataMax was 8% cooler than a substrate coated with a traditional elastomeric coating. When the roofing assembly does not experience the range of highs and lows that come with temperature variance throughout the day, it will remain viable longer.
StrataMax contains a proprietary, specifically-engineered biocide package that inhibits the formation and growth of mold, fungi, algae, and bacteria on the coating’s surface. With a flexible, durable formulation engineered to stretch with a roof’s movement over time, StrataMax will continue to protect the building for years.
Replacing titanium dioxide with innovative nano-spheres removes a significant amount of weight (15 lbs.) from each pail of StrataMax and makes it easier to carry up ladders and across job sites.
