Matte colors are flat and have less of a glare than your standard glossy metal roofing colors. If you’re looking to increase the curb appeal of your house, then using a dark matte finish can be the perfect solution. A matte finish can be useful when working with black because it can soften the sometimes harsh appearance that black or other dark colors might give off.
A glossy metal roofing color will give off a more dramatic, intense appearance than a matte metal roofing color. You should choose this finish type if you want a roof with a shinier appearance. Consider the aesthetic you’re looking to achieve and keep in mind that many homeowners associations are requiring matte finishes. This is becoming more commonplace because it reduces the glare for all of the neighboring residences.
