Standard roof coating in matt, silk gloss and high gloss: The Roof Shampoo roof coating is a permeable, rainproof, weather-resistant and fast-drying dispersion paint based on 100% pure acrylic with passive film preservation against algae and fungal attack. It is easy to apply by brush, roller or airless spray method. The advantage of the matte coating is that it gives a more even result on rough surfaces. Nano-Deluxe silk gloss roof coating: It is a roof coating with innovative nanotechnology and passive film preservation against algae and mold infestation. Nanostructured metal oxide particles (ZnO) provide optimum UV protection and are stable and effective for a long time due to their inorganic, insoluble properties. Like the standard version, the Roof Shampoo Nano-Deluxe roof coating is easy to apply by brush, roller or airless spray method.
Purpose of use
Water-dilutable dispersion coating for renovating weathered, sloped roof surfaces of concrete tiles, clay roof tiles, bitumen roof shingles and fiber cement sheets. Also ideal for color matching cut edges or damage to roof tiles and accessories made of aluminum, lead, copper, zinc, wood, gypsum and hard PVC.
Do not use on roofs with standing water. Siliconized roof tiles are not suitable for coating with DAKSHAMPOO roof paints.
Features
As a pure acrylic coating, it is particularly resistant to attack of the film surface by the ultraviolet component of sunlight; therefore, long-lasting chalking, gloss and color fastness. Water dilutable, environmentally friendly and low odor. Weatherproof according to PDB, diffusible, alkali-resistant and extremely resistant to aggressive environmental influences. Binder:
Pure acrylic dispersion
Specific weight:
approx. 1.2 g/cm3 (depending on color)
Shades
The color range is aligned with the corporate colors of the leading manufacturers of concrete roof tiles, bitumen roof shingles, fiber cement panels and clay roof tiles:
Classic red, brick red -new-, natural red, reddish brown, umbra brown, dark brown, slate gray, old colors, anthracite, black, emerald green and night blue. Available in most roof tile colors offered by the tile industry with a minimum order quantity of 200 kg per color shade. Individual mixing of color shades according to sample tiles as a color template is possible.
Substrate preparation
The existing roof surfaces must be prepared so that they are firm and stable, clean and free of vegetation, weather influences, grease, silicone and oxide layers.
The roof surfaces are cleaned of algae, lichen, moss and other dirt with a high-pressure cleaner; for greasy dirt (soot) with superheated steam. Cleaning should be carried out in the direction of the drain with a spray distance of approx. 10 cm and a pressure of at least 130 bar. Highly absorbent or abrasive roof surfaces, such as weathered concrete tiles and uncoated fiber cement panels, are primed with the same roof coating diluted 1:2 with water (one part roof coating and two parts water) before coating. Consumption depending on the absorbency of the substrate approx. 100 – 200 ml/m2. For naturally fired and committed clay roof tiles, a careful adhesion test must be carried out before coating and, if necessary, primed with DAKSHAMPOO primer for roof tiles. Glazed roof tiles must also be primed before coating. Non-ferrous metals must be professionally degreased and stripped of oxide layers (scrub with perlon fleece, hand pads and diluted ammonia water with the addition of a few drops of Pril). Like metal surfaces, plastics must be cleaned and roughened by rubbing away residual lubricant.
Because of the wide variety of substrates and substrate properties – especially with newer roof tiles and clay tiles with refined surfaces – we recommend performing a test coat to check adhesion before coating.
Processing
Stir the DAKSHAMPOO roof coating well before use. The paint is ready to use, but can be slightly diluted with water to set the optimum processing viscosity. The coating of roof surfaces should be carried out in two working steps:
Spread and roller application:
Primer: Apply diluted with up to 5% water.
Topcoat: Apply undiluted. Airless spray application:
To set the optimum spray viscosity, DAKSHAMPOO roof coating can be diluted with water up to a maximum of 5% for both the primer and top coat.
Airless spray pressure approx. 150 bar, nozzle bore approx. 0.021″ – 0.023″, spray angle 30 – 50°, distance approx. 40 – 50 cm.
Piston pumps such as Airlessco devices with a hose length of up to 40 m.
Consumption
approx. 185 ml/m² or 5.5 m²/l per coat on a smooth substrate
approx. 225 g/m² or 4.5 m²/kg per coat on a smooth substrate The consumption data are guide values which may increase due to surface roughness and structure as well as profile waves. Exact consumption quantities must be determined due to the differently structured substrates, both when brushing or rolling and when spraying onto the object. Practical values:
Experience has shown that a total of approx. 600 – 800 g/m2 (approx. 300 – 400 g/m2 per working step) material consumption can be estimated for an average profiled and textured roof surface, depending on the application method.
Processing temperature
Do not use below +8° C and above 35° C air and object temperature. Do not apply airless in strong winds.
Do not use in (expected) rain, direct sunlight, fog or high humidity (>80%).
Drying times
At +20° C and 65% humidity:
surface dry: after 3 – 4 hours
repaintable: after 4 – 6 hours
rainproof: after 24 hours
fully dried + loadable: after 3 days
Lower temperatures and higher humidity extend these times.
Cleaning appliances
Clean brush and roller with water immediately after use. Clean airless devices thoroughly with water.
Storage
Store in a cool but frost-free place. Unopened containers have a shelf life of approx. 1 year. Opened containers, on the other hand, should be processed as soon as possible.
EU limit

Frequently Asked Questions
» Read more
I need the coating as early as tomorrow, do you have it in stock and can I come pick it up?
Nano Deluxe black and anthracite in 20 kg can be picked up by arrangement. The shipping charges will be converted to handling charges. The rest of all roof coatings are shipped fresh directly from the manufacturer. The 12 standard colors are always in stock there and can be shipped within one business day. Delivery time is approximately 5 working days. We recommend ordering all necessary products two weeks in advance so that possible delays will not affect your schedule.
Matt, silk or high gloss; Which is better against green deposits?
Both matte, silk and high gloss are similar in repelling green mold and both contain an active anti-algae component. Our best roof coating against green attack is the Nano Deluxe roof coating, which contains an additional Nano technological component against green attack. Matt and silk gloss gives the most even result on weathered concrete roof tiles. High gloss roof coating is less suitable for weathered concrete roof tiles because it is more difficult to achieve an even result. We recommend using high gloss on smooth and less porous substrates such as baked and ceramic roof tiles.
Do you have a step-by-step plan for coating my roof available?
- First spray the surface with the Roof Shampoo quick cleaner.
- Then hose off with a pressure washer.
- After rinsing with water, spray again with Roof Shampoo Quick Cleaner.
- Rinse the roof with water. The surface must be clean (free of algae, grease and dust) and dry.
- Apply 1st coat of roof coating “primer” diluted with up to 5% water.
- For ceramic or fired clay roof tiles, test the adhesion after three days. If the adhesion is not good, first apply Roof Shampoo primer for roof tiles.
- 2nd coat of roof coating “topcoat” undiluted. (For airless spray application, the 2nd coat may be diluted with up to 5% water)
Do you have any tips I should think about?
- Application by brush, roller or spray.
- Do not use at temperatures below 8 degrees Celsius.
- Dried-in coating can be removed in advance with sticker remover from “HG”.
- For convenience, rent an airless sprayer inexpensively.
- How do I measure my roof to arrive at aatal square footage?
First, measure the 2nd roof tile from below and note the measurement. Then count the number of roof tiles in height and width and multiply it. An example: roof tile is 30 wide and 32 high. The roof is 14 tiles high with a ridge tile, we count this as half a tile. The roof is 54 tiles wide. Example roof height: 14.5 x 0.32 = 4.64 m1 Example roof width: 54 x 0.30 = 16.2 m1 Total = 16.2 x 4.64 = 75 m2. Is the other side of the roof the same? Then the roof is 2 x 75 m2 = 150 m2. The sides of the tiles along the windrows are approximately 0.08 m2 each. In this case 4x 14.5 = 58*0.08= 4.64 m2
I want to request a quote to have the roof coating treatment done. How does that work?
There is a lot involved in a roof coating treatment. To make an offer/price indication, certain information is needed to determine the plan of action, estimate man-hours, determine what tools are needed such as an aerial platform or scaffolding and determine which roof coating treatment suits your needs. In some cases, roof coating treatment is not possible. Below are the points that are important when making a price estimate or quote for roof coating treatments. A clear picture of the roof all around for accessibility and an estimate of the amount of work. ● Is there algae, moss and lichen present? To what extent? What is the year of construction of the house? How old are the roof tiles? ● Are they ceramic or concrete roof tiles or corrugated iron? ● How many spare roof tiles do you have? ● What is the condition of the roof boarding and battens? Are they dry? ● Have there been any leaks? ● Have the tiles been impregnated in the past? Which roof coating treatment do you prefer? The Standard or Premium treatment (extra layer thickness for extra life and appearance with very porous roof tiles) ● What is the address of the house due to travel times? ● Is there a water and power connection available?
What should I think about when comparing quotes for having my roof tiles coated?
When comparing quotes, the following things generally play an important role such as; quality of the coating to be used, degree of precision in finishing, even or spotty result, is it an experienced professional, amount of material per m2 and the warranty conditions.
The price of one roof coating treatment provider and another is even up to 200% apart, how about this?
The quality of one provider and another is usually very far apart. There are no official training programs for this trade and everyone does it in their own way. Therefore, the lifespan of roof coating treatments also vary very extremely between 1-30 years. An excellent roof coating treatment is very labor intensive and the materials pricey. Of course, these two things can be completed very differently. The professional is extremely critical to the final result. Therefore, in many cases, to be on the safe side, a homeowner will be better off coating his roof himself so that there will certainly not be any savings on the quality and quantity of materials. Alternatively, consider purchasing the material yourself and hiring someone else to first clean the roof and then apply the coating. It is usually a bad idea to apply too little roof coating since it continuously decreases in thickness by a microscopic amount due to exposure to external influences. Also, the method of cleaning greatly determines the longevity of a roof coating treatment.
Is a roof coating treatment durable?
The treatment is very durable, however, it should be performed in a proper way with the right products under the right weather conditions.
Someone in construction says it’s a waste of money. How can that be?
One reason is because a lot of substandard work is done by companies that do not specialize in roof coating, usually it is done on the side. Another reason may be that the construction industry misses out on big jobs due to roof coating treatments; supplying new tiles, insulating, replacing battens, gutter repairs, etc.
Can the coating come off after a few years?
In case it is applied in the right way, with the right material under the right weather conditions, it is impossible for the roof coating to come off by itself. We have never experienced it with our customers and return to some customers after years for maintenance to keep it clean. We even find that in many cases our roof coating lasts longer than the coating on new tiles.
Isn’t impregnating my roof tiles more durable?
After impregnation, dirt and mosses can unfortunately re-establish themselves between your roof tiles. Impregnation of ceramic or concrete roof tiles with the original coating still on them is useless because the impregnating agent cannot penetrate there. Also not unimportant is that after impregnation, in connection with the adhesion, you cannot have your roof coated in any color for at least 10 years. Impregnating a worn roof with open pores works best, the downside is that your tiles will remain fragile and still look worn.
Isn’t having new tiles laid cheaper?
This question is often asked by homeowners who have replaced their shingles on their homes themselves and then only charge the cost of purchasing the shingles. In case one also does the roof coating treatment themselves and only charges the cost of the coating and roof shampoo, a roof coating treatment will always be cheaper.
Can I also coat my roof myself?
Coating roof tiles is certainly very easy to do yourself. It is better not to start right away with a sprayer, because without the necessary knowledge and skill, it is very difficult to get an even result with it. But with a roller and a brush, you can’t really go wrong. Before you can start coating the roof tiles, it is important that the roof is exceptionally well cleaned. There should be no more algae, lichen and bits of moss. This is just not always good, to see. Therefore, it is important to first treat the roof with Roof Shampoo quick cleaner and then rinse it with water. This way you can be sure, that the roof is clean deep into the pores and no dirt can get under the coating.
With paint roller, brush or sprayer?
Roof Shampoo roof coating can be sprayed or applied with a paint roller or brush. For an even result we advise the do-it-yourselfer to use a paint roller and brush. Time is less important for do-it-yourselfers, but the result is very important. A professional can be price competitive by working with a brush or paint roller because it takes much more time, and it is advisable to purchase an airless paint sprayer.
Where can I rent an airless sprayer?
For a one-time job, it is advisable to rent an airless sprayer. You might want to try this at, for example: www.pomp-specialist.eu | www.boels.com | www.stucwerkrijnmondverhuur.nl | www.oostveenmachinetechniek.nl | www.schoonewiltechniek.nl. When renting one, consider a hose length of 30 meters and spray nozzle 311 for very fine and precise work, a 515 for making meters and lots of control and finally for making as many meters as possible the 521. A different filter goes with each nozzle so that the nozzle does not keep getting clogged. When using less powerful machines, it is advisable to dilute the coating with more water and spray in several layers.
Which airless sprayer do I need?
We have found that our customers could do just fine with a light machine such as the “MAGNUM Graco A45”. We hear mostly good experiences about the GRACO machines.
How many days do I need a sprayer?
It is recommended to keep 1 layer per day. Sometimes a 3rd layer is needed so soon you will end up with the weekly rate.
Should I use a primer or no primer?
When coating concrete roof tiles with Dakshampoo’s roof coating, no primer is needed for adhesion. This roof coating adheres perfectly to concrete tiles. The situation is different with ceramic roof tiles and adhesion problems are possible. Dakshampoo’s primer is specially tailored to our roof coating. It can also be easily applied with a roller or brush.
How can I reach anywhere on the roof anywhere?
To reach everywhere on the roof, you can push up roof tiles and place your feet in them. This goes especially well with concrete shingles. Another option is to put a ladder on the roof and keep moving it up. In general, it is possible to coat three columns per row from the same foot height.
Apply roof coating in how many layers?
The coating should be applied in two layers. So after the whole row of roof tiles are coated properly, let it dry first. The drying time can be 10 minutes with nice weather but in cold temperatures it can take days on the shady side. Once the first late is dry, you can immediately start applying the second coat from scratch with your roller and a brush.
The sides along the wind springs.
Using a ladder with a spacer makes it possible to paint the sides of the tiles along the windrows. In some cases, this is also perfectly possible from the roof.
Masking or not masking?
Masking with tape is a time-consuming job. Another disadvantage is that it sometimes gets very stuck or damages the surface. We prefer a small brush if precision work is needed. Lead sheets can also be folded over.
