Preservation Products elastomeric coating systems are available in a variety of standard and custom colors including reds, patina green, and energy efficient reflective white. Custom colors are available at a small additional cost.

The choice between the Preservation System or the Restoration Systems is dictated by the condition of the roof. In both the Preservation System and the Restoration System Preservation Products coatings are applied to a properly prepared roof surface to provide a weatherproof protective membrane that essentially encapsulates the roof in a seamless sheet of "rubber." The basic differences between the systems are in the amounts of material required, number of coats, and use of reinforcement fabric.

Preservation Products tin roof repair systems are based on the concept that "tin" or terne metal, when properly protected, can provide the base for an extremely durable roofing system. Preservation Products roof restoration systems for tin roofs were tested and proven on historic structures in Cape May, New Jersey and throughout the Mid-Atlantic region.

An elastomeric coating is a coating with rubber-like properties that will return to its original dimensions after being stretched or deformed. As the roof or substrate expands and contracts with heat and cold, so will the flexible elastomeric coating, creating a weatherproof layer that won't crack.

No, not anymore. The drive to clean up our air and provide safer paints and coatings has resulted in a massive research and development effort in the past decade. Resins and additives have been successfully developed that make waterborne coatings superior in performance and safety to oil-based materials.

In 1993, Preservation Products, Inc. was founded by the president of Acrymax Technologies, Inc., a firm with a reputation for superior quality protective coating systems. The unique concerns and requirements of the preservation market demanded a company that would focus on protective solutions for historic and vintage structures. Preservation Products is the exclusive licensed distributor for Acrymax products in the historic preservation market.

Acrymax is the tradename for custom coating systems based on state-of-the-art acrylic technology. Acrymax coatings are multi-purpose waterborne coatings that are safe for the applicator and represent an environmentally responsible alternative to solvent-based coatings.
