A question for the building experts.
My house has a Bermuda style roof that needs painting....again!
The paint doesn't last long, maybe two years at most. Last time I painted it, I had an army of people with scrapers, removing all the old paint. A painstaking and messy job. We then painted it with a latex based roof paint, but it's already peeling, bubbling and allowing filtration again.
So my question is borne from my recent swimming pool refurbishment. My pool is coated with Diamond bright, which is mainly just white Portland cement with coloured stone particles embedded into it. It's supposed to be hard, water and chemical resistant and last forever.
So I thought about applying a thin layer of white portland cement on my roof rather than painting it again. Hopefully it should last longer than the paint and certainly not bubble up and peel, which is what causes the porousness.
Any thoughts?
