roof sun damage?

have a 08 TT by gulf stream, looks like it has a TPM rubber type roof on it. is there any type of spray or liquid to apply to it to help keep it from getting sun damaged here in Arizona? or are the roofs made to withstand scorching summer sun?
thanks

    found out it is a rubber roof made by alpha systems....

    some one from gulf stream said she heard that u can apply PROTECTALL spray bottle solution for UV protection but wasn't sure
  • I believe any of the elastomeric acrylic roof coatings will work for you. I used white and it dropped the interior temps by 15f. I'd bet you would see the same or more in AZ.
  • 303 Protectant is good for blocking UV rays from the sun.
    I don't think you really need to apply anything to the roof, just do your normal maintenance checks.
    But, I'm only dealing with the Pennsylvania sun, I know AZ is much more intense
