Add Decades to Roof Life in Days
Roofs have it hard. On an 89° day, a typical black roof can experience a 100° variation from 175° at the hottest peak to 75° ambient temperature at night. This constant temperature fluctuation and UV exposure can create tremendous strain over time. Most commonly, roofs fail where dissimilar materials meet at penetrations, seams and edges. Minor structural issues can cause additional challenges such as poor drainage and ponding water. For over 50 years, professionals have trusted GE to deliver durable, long-lasting building solutions. The GE Enduris* roof coating system is a fast, efficient and economical alternative to replacement. Based on GE-heritage technology, the GE Enduris system is backed by world-class technical support and a 10-, 15- or 20-year warranty
Restore with Silicone
A seamless, stable and energy-efficient coating can dramatically extend roof life expectancy, delaying the need for a costly, time-consuming replacement project. Silicone is inherently durable and permanently flexible. Unlike acrylic, polyolefin, asphaltic and carbon-based polymer chains, silicone is completely UV stable, providing the maximum long-term performance against weather and atmospheric conditions. The entire GE roof coating system is made from the same 100% silicone, allowing it to expand and contract at the same rate, helping prevent leaks that may result in mold, mildew, wood rot and rust. A white silicone coating also reflects the sun’s rays to better control inside temperatures
Restore Virtually Any Roof Type
GE Enduris restoration systems are appropriate over most structurally sound existing roofing systems including:
- Single-ply membranes (TPO, EPDM, PVC)
- Asphaltic and mod bit
- Metal
- Concrete
- Foam

Restore With Confidence
Silicone remains stable, flexible and virtually unaffected by daily and seasonal temperature extremes. It will not become brittle or harden as the system ages. The GE Enduris system provides exceptional, long-term performance.
Ponding water
While acrylic coatings tend to fail at the seams, penetrations and edges, especially where water ponds, Enduris coatings stand up to ponding water.
Life cycle cost
Primerless, single-coat application brings efficiency and cost savings to the installation process. Longterm durability promotes a lower total life cycle cost.
Energy savings
Energy savings versus a black roof can be as great as 35% on summer cooling costs. GE Enduris coatings offer excellent color retention and reflectivity with a silicone polymer that is UV stable.
Full compatibility
Using only 100% silicone components that are chemically and adhesively compatible, Enduris helps prevent water leakage, mold/mildew, wood rot and metal rust.
Best-in-class elongation
By remaining flexible with daily and seasonal temperatures throughout the life of the building, this system offers best-in-class elongation, both initially and after decades of exposure.
GE Enduris* Three-Component System
GE Enduris Roof Coating
High-solids, low-VOC, 100% silicone liquid coating applied in a single coat. While a primer is not required, an asphalt bleed-blocking base coat can promote energy savings, and an EPDM wash can help optimize adhesion. Currently available in totes, drums and pails and in standard colors white, tan, medium gray and dark gray. Custom colors may be requested.
GE RF100 Reinforcing Fabric
This flexible, easy-to-use reinforcing fabric embedded between layers of sealant or coating is acceptable for sealing virtually all seams, curbs and penetrations. Currently available in 4″, 6″ and 12″ widths in 100′ rolls. Larger sizes may be available.
GE Enduris Seam Sealant
Low-VOC 100% silicone, single-component liquid sealant for joints, seams, gaps and splices, offering long-term performance in sealing out water and withstanding weather and atmospheric conditions without degradation. Currently available in 2-gallon pails.
Benefits Now and Later
Time and labor savings
With no primer required on coated and uncoated roofing membranes, this system can offer significant cost savings associated with labor, primer and time delays.
Full compatibility
Can be applied to most existing roof types including asphaltics (BUR and Mod Bit), single-ply (TPO, PVC, EPDM), SPF foam, concrete and metal.
Cold weather application
GE Enduris* 3500 coating can be rolled or sprayed in temperatures as low as 0° F without freezing, helping to extend the roofing season and avoid project delays.
