About GAF Kymax Coating

GAF Kymax Coating is an excellent barrier to plasticizer migration and is effective in preventing asphalt bleed-through. It is recommended whenever exceptional weatherability and/or reflectivity are required, whether the threat is algae, mildew, dirt, or industrial fallout (formerly known as United Coatings™ Kymax™ Coating).

  • Highly flexible yet exhibits a tough, enamel-like finish that resists abrasion, biological growth, dirt, oil, and all types of weather extremes
  • Provides exceptional UV and color stability
  • Microbiological resistance; Kymax Coating was independently tested for fungal resistance test panels and showed no growth
  • UL Listed as a Class “A” Fluid-Applied Coating System
  • Color and gloss stability; manufactured using Kynar Aquatec® resin, which is based on proven Kynar 500® technology (this PVDF homopolymer is universally known as the world’s most weatherable coating resin)
