I put a silvercoat on my roof two summers ago, and got the supplies at the Ivan location at 46th & Lancaster.  I found them a lot cheaper than Home Depot for the same prdouct, and extremely helpful besides.  I ended up with two employees and a bunch of roofers all giving me advice on how to apply the stuff.  (It's not difficult).

Home Depot has the aluminum coating mentioned earlier (referred to as "silvered"). They also have a white elastomeric product which may or may not be the Rohm & Haas formulation cited. I've used both types over the years. The white stuff seems to be better at getting into little cracks, but is a lot more expensive.

The Home Depot on Columbus Blvd (south of Penn's Landing -- between Washington and Snyder on the same pier as a WalMart) is one of the best-stocked of the company's outlets in the area.

There's also a roofing supply company on Washington Ave (Ivan Supply). Stelwagen is (or was) there too, but may be closed down. I never found either of these places to be helpful if I had questions -- they expect their customers to be professional roofers. But maybe they've gotten more customer-oriented now that Home Depot is taking away some of their business.
