There are a few popular roof coatings that you can apply depending on the type of roof you have. Tar is one of the more popular roof coverings for homes that have shingles.

There is a substance that is like cement that you can put on the roof of a trailer to block out the heat in the summer. It is not cement itself, but the color and consistency are similar.
