Long lasting Paints for Roofs!

In Australia, there was a huge demand for long-lasting, effectual, cool coatings for metal and tile roofs that could be economically field-applied to houses in the vast Australian continent. We chose acrylic energy saving coatings which are bit expensive but are really very effective. This coating is also comes in liquid format which is very useful while application. A benefit of this coating is that they add 12 to 15-year lifespans to your roof which is cost-savings benefits with twice the lifespan of standard paints. They cooled the buildings dramatically by reflecting away the majority of the sun’s radiation and by releasing a very high percentage of the heat that did find its way into the underlying substrate materials. This is called thermal emissivity.


Other benefits were that these reflective paints required no special processes to apply, while being largely more environmentally friendly and lower in odour. This coating is IR reflective, low toxic in nature, with low Volatile Organic Compounds unlike the liquid, organic-based standard paint tint systems.
