About Delcote Roof Coatings
Delcote is a high-performance roof coating engineered specifically for metal roof refurbishment. It addresses issues such as UV degradation, corrosion, cut-edge breakdown and failing original coatings. The system forms a seamless, elastomeric membrane that bonds to the roof surface, protecting it from further deterioration.
Key properties include high UV resistance, long-term elasticity, excellent adhesion and proven compatibility with metal substrates.

Used alongside Delcote, Seamsil treats cut-edge corrosion—one of the most common causes of metal roof failure. The flexible silicone system seals laps and edges, preventing moisture ingress and further corrosion.
