Apply primer: Apply a metal primer to the entire roof surface using a paint roller or sprayer. Allow it to dry completely.
Apply paint: Choose a high-quality paint that is specifically designed for metal roofs. Apply the paint using a paint roller or sprayer, starting from the top and working your way down. Allow it to dry completely.
Apply a second coat: Once the first coat is dry, apply a second coat of paint to ensure full coverage and durability.
