WHAT CAN CRACKS CAUSE?
It allows moisture to penetrate the protective surface of the coating, and cause rust and corrode on the roof. The fracture in the paint can cause a painted panel to corrode at a faster rate than an unpainted panel.
WANT A ROOF THAT LOOKS BRAND NEW ALL THE TIME?
You should use our metal roof that made with the EVERLAST HEAT FORMING PROCESS! It creates a more flexible paint system that is better than withstand the rigors of the forming process. The paint coverage is not compromised, and the result is outstanding barrier protection. This barrier protection prevents corrosion by isolating the steel from the environment.

“May is the month of expectation, the month of wishes, the month of hope.” --- Emily Bronte
It seems that we are all going a little crazy now that May is here! People are out walking, kids are starting baseball, joggers are out, bikers are out. There are lines at ice cream stands. There’s a frenzy of work being done by landscapers and carpenters and it seems that the world is bursting into so many shades of green there aren’t even names for all of them. And we are just so happy that it’s May.
This burst of activity is great. It’s like we suddenly came out of the cocoons we were in all winter. We’re shedding our winter coats and hats and digging out those t-shirts.
On some level we all know that there are still chilly days ahead, but how glorious to revel in these early sunny days of May when all things seem possible. May is truly the month of hope.
