The paint warranty on metal roof seems to vary from 20 to 50 years.....quite the range! When talking with metal manufactors themselves, I am told roughly 20 years....and that the Kynar paint has only been around for 20 years to date. Is there any factual info on the life of the paint? And secondly, is the Kynar coating the best for a house with pine and oak trees within 20 ft in regards to pine cones and acorns falling on the roof during a high wind?

The Kynar / Hylar coatings are widely respected by architects, engineers, and the metal roofing and paint industries as the finest paint coatings available for exterior building products. Actually, the technology dates back to the early 60s. It has gone through some variations over the years but performance has consistently been top notch. You will find some variations in warranty from manufacturer to manufacturer.

With metal roofing shingles, can the paint color be baked on and would this extend the paint warranty beyond 20 years?

The paint systems used today are baked on systems applied before the metal panels are formed.
