Matte Finishes Vs. Glossy Metal Roofing Colors : What's the Difference?

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.

How Do I Reduce The Glare On My Metal Roof?

Once a metal roof is installed, there is not much that can be done to reduce the glare. However, if you have not yet installed your roof, you can reduce glare by choosing a matte finish for your metal roof. When sunlight hits a matte surface, it scatters in many different directions due to the roughness of the surface. This means that less light is reflected directly back to the viewer, resulting in reduced glare.

SMP Painted Colors

When you're deciding upon a metal roofing color an important decision is which type of paint system to use. There are two paint systems that are used regularly for metal roofing and siding, SMP and PVDF. Choosing between the two systems is a balancing act between price and performance.

The main advantage of SMP painted panels is they will cost less and are available in lighter gauges. The main disadvantage is that they have less resistance to UV exposure and will fade and chalk at a greater rate.
