Can These Motorhome Roof Coatings Be Tinted or Coloured?

Coloured or clear: how the options compare

Prolux is the tinted choice in this range. It is supplied in a wide colour range and can be finished in gloss or satin, with an optional anti-slip finish. That gives you more control over the final appearance of a motorhome roof, particularly if you want to refresh faded panels or match an existing colour scheme.

Macote KZ 100 and Heat Pro are clear coatings. They do not add colour; instead they preserve the underlying surface while providing a protective, glossy layer. This is useful when the roof’s current tone is still acceptable and the main goal is weather protection.

Choosing the right finish for your roof

Think about the condition of the roof before deciding. If the surface has faded or you want a change in tone, Prolux is the logical route because it can be tinted. If the structure is sound and you simply want to lock in the original look, a clear coating such as Macote KZ 100 or Heat Pro may be more suitable.

• Coloured finish: Prolux, available in various colours, gloss or satin.
• Clear gloss finish: Macote KZ 100, a spray-applied lacquer.
• Clear, flexible coating: Heat Pro, a self-levelling polyurethane resin.

When this matters

Colour choice becomes more important if a motorhome roof has patchy repairs or visible wear. A tinted Prolux coat can even out the appearance, while a clear coating would leave those differences on show. For roofs that already look consistent, a clear option avoids the need to match a colour and keeps the original surface character.
