GACOFLEX™ S2100
WHITE CLEANABLE SOLVENT-FREE SILICONE ROOF COATING
A. DESCRIPTION
GacoFlex S2100 White Cleanable Solvent-Free Silicone Coating is the first high-solids 100% silicone coating to resist
dirt pick-up even after years of exposure, thereby maintaining significantly higher whiteness and solar reflectivity than
other silicone coatings. It is highly cleanable, and if necessary, can easily be cleaned with GacoFlex GacoWash
Concentrated Cleaner. Improved rheology provides better film build on high spots and over granular or uneven surfaces.
GacoFlex S2100 contains 37% recycled content and does not contain crystalline silica. Like all GacoFlex silicone roof
coatings, it withstands permanent ponding water.
B. RECOMMENDED USE
Use GacoFlex S2100 as a maintenance coating system over existing elastomeric roof coatings, metal roofs, smooth
built-up roofing, mineral cap sheets, modified bitumen (APP and SBS) and weathered single ply membranes where the
substrate is in sound condition, but requires a renewal of the surface due to the normal effects of aging and use.
GacoFlex S2100 is ideal for use over sprayed-in-place polyurethane foam roofing, such as GacoFlex F2733
GacoRoofFoam™, concrete and plywood decking (when properly applied over an approved base coat). When properly
applied, the S2100 coating system provides a seamless weather-tight seal that protects the substrate from degradation
caused by ultraviolet light, water, and other normal weathering hazards.
The GacoFlex S2100 Roof Coating System is eligible for a 5-Year Energy Star Warranty when installed according to
Gaco’s technical specifications by a Gaco licensed applicator.

E. APPLICATION
STEP DESCRIPTION
GacoFlex A4271 BleedTrap™ Base Coat is required over asphalt substrates (including mineral
Asphalt
1 surface cap sheets), followed by GacoFlex E5320 2-Part Epoxy Primer/Filler prior to installing
Sealer
GacoFlex S2100.
Existing silicone coatings should not be primed. On all other substrates and cured A4271
2 Priming BleedTrap, apply GacoFlex E5320 2-Part Epoxy Primer/Filler according to Gaco application
instructions.
3 Mixing Mix before application to ensure uniform color and consistency.
4 Thinning Product should not be thinned.
Apply by brush or ¾" (19 mm) nap woven roller as received. For spray application, use as received;
consult GW 6-5-SG Silicone Spray Guide for more information. Do not apply if rain is expected within
1 hour. For cold weather application, keep material stored above 65 °F (18 °C). For application in
temperatures below freezing or above 120 °F (49 °C), contact Gaco.
On smooth surfaces, apply one coat at a minimum rate of 1.5 gal per 100 ft² (5.7 L per 9.3 m²) to
achieve approximately 22 dry mils. On granular and other rough surfaces, apply at a rate of 2 gal per
5 Application 100 ft² (7.6 L per 9.3 m²) to achieve 22 dry mils. Allow GacoFlex S2100 to dry a min. of 4 hours at 55
°F (13 °C); recoat within 4 to 48 hours.
Coat all surfaces including expansion joint covers and flashings. Extra material is required at all edges
and penetrations if neoprene sheet flashing is not used.
NOTE: Application rate is job-specific and losses due to overspray, surface profile and wind.
Additional material may be required to achieve the required dry mil coverage.
Coating should be allowed to cure 24 to 48 hours depending on temperature and humidity before it is
6 Dry Time
suitable for light foot traffic (product is moisture cure; low humidity will result in longer dry times).
Application tools and equipment can be cleaned with GacoFlex T5110 Compliant Solvent. Recirculate
7 Clean-up through lines and gun until residual coating is removed. DO NOT USE WATER OR RECLAIMED
SOLVENTS.
To maintain whiteness and reflectivity, roofs coated with S2100 can be power washed with pure water.
8 Maintenance
GacoWash can be utilized if necessary on oily areas.
