This is one of the many benefits to metal roofing. Painting can be done to extend the life of the panels or simply to create a different look. As long as the old finish is well adhered to the metal, it will provide a great surface for a new coating. If you decide to paint we recommend using a good quality DTM (Direct To Metal) paint. To prepare the surface wipe down with (50/50) vinegar and water solution, this will remove any residue remaining from fabrication. Then we suggest a primer followed by a top coat and recommend using a DTM (Direct to Metal) Paint. - [Metal Roofing](https://help.gibraltarbuildingproducts.com/en/knowledge/metal-roofing?hsLang=en#main-content) -
