Is Soybean Oil Roof Ready?
Soybean oil roof treatment is a plant-based rejuvenating spray designed specifically for asphalt shingles. It’s engineered to restore flexibility, replenish lost oils, improve granule retention, and enhance hydrophobicity, essentially giving your asphalt roof a second life. However, it IS NOT just soybean oil. In fact, the soy product in these treatments is a derivative of soybean oil, not just plain old soybean oil. Also in the mix is a dispersant, polymers, and emulsifiers. A carrier is also needed for two reasons as well. The treatment needs to be thinned down and the correct amount of soy product is very crucial. So PLEASE, do not go out and buy soybean oil to put on your roof, it will not end well!

Why Choose a Soybean Oil Roof Rejuvenation Treatment?
1. Your Shingles are Brittle
Asphalt shingles naturally dry out and become brittle within 5 years, leading to cracking and curling. Soy oil penetrates the asphalt, rewets the internal oils, and restores malleability—slowing and even reversing the aging process.
2. Prevents Granule Loss
Granules protect shingles from UV and other elements. SoyFuze keeps 8× more granules in place compared to an untreated dry shingles .
3. Re-equips Rain Repellency
By making shingles hydrophobic again, soy oil accelerates drying, which hinders mold, mildew, and algae growth .
4. Eco-Friendly & Cost-Effective
Soy oil treatments extend roof up to 5 years at less then 5% the cost of full replacements. Getting the most out of your roof reduces landfill waste and the ingredients are derived from a renewable resource (soy bean oil)
5. SoyFuze is Top Shelf
