Leaking roof -recommend a roof coating?

Faust

My roof is a very low pitch roof with "roll roofing". It is about 15 years old. There are cracks at the seams, and I can't I can't see any obvious leaks. But have plenty of ceiling staining. I am assuming small holes where "ponding" occurs.

I am looking for a recommendation on a roof coating. I notice that the "elastometric" brands recommend a "primer". the primer sells at about 3 times the price of the coatings, or about $150.00 for a 5 gal pail. I can't find a good estimate of coverage on the primers. The coatings seem to run $50-60 for a 5 gallon pail. The roof is about 2800 feet.

I would like to keep the roof white, but I may end up with black asphalt based.

Any experience or brand recommendations out there?

Does this roof area face south? (direct sunlight)
What type of climate are you in?
What is the dimension of the roof? (10 x 20 , 20 x 20...)

Since it is a nearly flat roof, I guess it faces in all directions.

Climate? Northeast, USA

The size is 40 X 70.

I have been looking into Kool Seal products. With a double coat of their primer and a double coating of their roof coating, a rubber roof starts to look reasonable. Too bad, it looks like they have a good product.
