Overview
KST04130A is the accent tint base of the premium acrylic elastomeric roof coating. The chemistry is the same as the catalog colors: 100% acrylic elastomeric, water-based, listed by the manufacturer over metal, polyurethane foam, concrete, smooth built-up, modified bitumen, granular cap sheets, EPDM and Hypalon, and listed for use with fabric or seam tape at the details. What changes is that the pail leaves the factory as a base rather than as a color.
Three bases cover the range of roof colors, and the accent base is the one strong, saturated formulas start from. Which base a color needs is decided by the manufacturer colorant system, not by the roof, and tinting is done with that system only. The other two are KST04130D, the deep base, and KST04130P, the pastel base. Rates, film build, recoat and cure all come from the manufacturer’s product data sheet.
Application
- Start on a roof that is clean, dry and sound. Wash the field, clear ponded silt and loose granules, and let it dry as the data sheet requires.
- Repair first, then reinforce the details before the field: splits, blisters, open laps, flashings, penetrations and fastener rows.
- Prime by substrate. Metal, concrete, single ply and asphaltic roofs each take their own first step off the data sheet.
- Base coat, then finish coat. Keep enough tinted material from one run to finish the roof, since color work is easiest to keep consistent in a single order.
- Apply at the rate, film build and coat count the manufacturer’s product data sheet states, in the conditions it allows.
Ordering
KST04130A is held as a 5-gallon pail. Stocked pails ship in 1 to 3 business days; anything not on the shelf is ordered in and runs 1 to 2 weeks, and a tinted order should be planned against the longer of the two windows. Pallet quantities, delivery and freight go through the quote form, and every price is quoted per project rather than printed here. Send the color you are matching, the part numbers, the quantities, the site ZIP code and your dates, and we reply with the price, freight and a ship date.
Where it's used
-
Roofs with a matched color
Low-slope roofs and decks that have to match a wall color, a canopy or an adjacent roof, where none of the catalog colors is close enough.
-
Accent and feature areas
Entry canopies, equipment screens, upstands and small visible roof areas finished in a strong color beside a plain field.
-
Branded and civic buildings
Buildings where the roof or the canopy carries a deliberate color, on metal, concrete, foam or asphaltic substrates the coating already lists.
-
Metal and concrete substrates
Panel roofs over a metal primer and cured concrete decks over the acrylic concrete primer, once the details have been reinforced.
-
Asphaltic roofs under a colored finish

Questions
- Which of the three bases do I need?
- The base is set by the color, not by the roof. Accent is the base for strong, saturated colors, deep for dark colors and pastel for light ones. The manufacturer colorant system decides which base a given formula starts from, so send the color you want on the quote and we come back with the base and the quantity.
- Do you tint the pails?
- No. We do not tint. These bases are tinted with the manufacturer colorant system, and the quote tells you how tinting is handled for your order before you commit to it.
- Can I use a tint base on its own, untinted?
- It is a base, not a finished color, so it is bought to be tinted. If you want a color straight from the pail, the catalog colors are white KST041300, black KST041325, adobe light tan KST04130T and sedona tan KST41300T.
- How much will my roof take?
- The manufacturer's product data sheet states the coverage rate and the film build per coat and per substrate. Send the square footage, the roof type and its condition and the quote works the pails out for that roof.
- Can it ship in freezing weather?
- It is a water-based coating and must not freeze in transit or in storage. Tell us the destination and the dates and the quote states the ship window.
