Roof Cleaner
Powerful Prep for Single-Ply Roof Restoration
Roof Cleaner is a high-performance, waterborne cleaning solution formulated to prepare single-ply and rubber-based roofing systems—especially weathered EPDM—for coating. It removes chalking, surface oils, degraded rubber, and embedded dirt that standard power washing leaves behind, ensuring maximum adhesion for NanoTech's Cool Roof Base Coat and other topcoats.
Designed to reduce prep time and improve application results, Roof Cleaner softens surface buildup and enhances rinse-off with only minimal agitation. Whether you're restoring aging membranes or improving primer bond strength, Roof Cleaner gives your project a clean start.
