Mule-Hide Products has been a trusted name in the roofing industry since 1906, and their 100% Silicone Roof Coating system represents the pinnacle of modern roof restoration technology. Rather than facing the enormous expense and disruption of a full roof replacement, Rhode Island property owners can extend the life of their existing roof by 10 to 20 years or more with a professionally applied silicone coating system.
Mule-Hide’s 100% Silicone Roof Coating is a single-part, moisture-cure coating formulated with durable inorganic silicone resins, reinforcing pigments, and silane adhesion promoters. It creates a seamless, breathable, and watertight barrier that resists ponding water, UV exposure, thermal shock, and the harshest weather conditions Rhode Island can deliver. Available in white, gray, black, tan, and Santa Fe tan, the coating can be applied by spray, roller, or brush to a wide range of substrates including EPDM, TPO, aged PVC, modified bitumen, metal, concrete, and spray-applied polyurethane foam.
The reflective white formulation meets Cool Roof Rating Council (CRRC) standards and can reflect up to 88% of the sun’s UV rays. This dramatically reduces roof surface temperatures—by over 50°F in many cases—which translates directly to lower cooling costs and reduced strain on your HVAC equipment during Rhode Island’s warm summer months.
Mule-Hide’s silicone system includes everything needed for a complete restoration. The 100% Silicone Roof Coating serves as the primary protective layer. The 100% Silicone Sealant handles detail work at seams, penetrations, and transitions. The A-125 Metal Roof Primer provides rust encapsulation and adhesion promotion on metal substrates. For TPO roofs, the Si TPO Primer ensures proper adhesion. Polyester reinforcing fabric and walkway granules complete the system for areas requiring additional durability or foot traffic protection.
Mule-Hide backs their silicone coating with a 50-year limited material warranty when applied at the minimum rate of 1.5 gallons per 100 square feet. Commercial properties can qualify for 10, 15, or 20-year system warranties that cover both manufacturing defects and contractor workmanship. This warranty confidence reflects the proven durability of silicone technology in protecting roofs across every climate zone.
Proper surface preparation and correct application thickness are critical to coating system performance. Pinnacle Roofing & Skylights brings the specialized expertise needed to evaluate your existing roof condition, select the right system components, and deliver professional installation that maximizes your coating’s lifespan and warranty coverage.
