Location: western PA | A word of caution. Fiberglass roofs, stored outside and continuously subjected to the sun's UV rays, will deteriorate with age. The outer resin coating will break down, allowing the layup's glass strands to loose their rigidity, fracture and have little remaining strength. An easy test to determine if the roof has suffered any UV damage, is to simply wipe your wetted finger over the roof's surface. If a fine white dust is transferred to your finger, the layup has or is becoming compromised. If the surface still has a good rigidity, cleaning it and coating it with quality paints or Elastomeric products, will ensure its longevity, with protection from further exposure to the UV light. |
