THE THERMO-SHIELD® DIFFERENCE

THERMO-SHIELD® IS AN ELASTOMERIC ACRYLIC EMULSION, WITH INSULATIVE CERAMIC MICROSPHERES.  IT IS MADE OF TOTALLY SYNTHETIC STATE-OF-THE -ART MATERIALS, SO IS NOT SUBJECT TO RAPID BREAKDOWN LIKE TRADITIONAL COATINGS.  FOLLOWING IS A LIST OF ADVANTAGES OBTAINED WHEN YOU APPLY THERM-SHIELD® COATINGS:

1.       EXCELLENT ADHESION TO MOST SUBSTRATES, INCLUDING, STEEL, TIN, GALVANIZED STEEL, WOOD, CONCRETE, TILE, FOAM, RUBBER AND OTHERS (CAN BE APPLIED TO ASPHALT AND TART WITH THERMO-SHIELD FEX-TAC AS A BASE COAT)

2.       WATERPROOFING; THE ROOFING WILL WITHSTAND PONDING OF WATER

3.       LONG LIFE; IT IS NOT DAMAGED BY ULTRA VIOLET LIGHT, DOES NOT GET HARD OR CRACK, DOES NOT GET CHALKY

4.       REMAINS FLEXIBLE AT MINUS 50° F AND MAINTAINS ITS STRENGTH AT 400° F; ELMINATES THERMAL-SHOCK DAMAGE

5.       CERAMIC MICROSPHERES REFLECT AND DISIPATE MOST SOLAR HEAT.  IT HAS AN INSULATIVE EQUIVALENT TO AN R-22 INSULATION AGAINST SOLAR HEAT

6.       COST EFFECTIVE; WILL PAY FOR ITSELF IN A SHORT TIME THROUGH ENERGY SAVINGS AND LONG LIFE

7.       BECOMES A SEAMLESS, FLEXIBLE, MEMBRANE-LIKE COATING OVER THE ENTIRE AREA WITH NO SEAMS OR ADHESION PROBLEMS

8.       IT IS WATER SOLUBLE, EASY TO APPLY AND EASY TO CLEAN UP; NO ELABORATE EQUIPMENT REQUIRED

9.       NON-TOXIC IN LIQUID OR CURED STATE

10.   MAY BE TINTED TO DESIRED COLOR; EXCELLENT FADE RESISTANCE

11.   HAIL RESISTANT

12.   FIRE RESISTANT

13.   MILDEW RESISTANT

14.   WIND ABRASSION RESISTANT

15.   SOUND ABSORPTION; THE RESINS AND MICROSPHERES REDUCE NOISE AND ECHO

16.   WITHSTANDS AIRBORNE POLLUTANTS

17.   VARIABLE PERMEABILITY: WHEN THE COATING IS DRY THE POLYMERS SHRINK TO LET TRAPPED MOISTURE BREATHE OUT, BUT WHEN WET, THE POLYMERS SWELL AND BECOME WATERTIGHT – THIS PREVENTS BLISTERING AND MOISTURE BUILD-UP

18.   PROVIDES A HIGH DEGREE OF COMFORT IN THE BUILDING BY REDUCING NOISE AND MAINTAINING THE INSIDE MEAN TEMPERATURE AT A MORE STABLE LEVEL

19.   VERY LOW MAINTENANCE

20.   THE FINISHED MEMBRANE IS VERY LIGHTWEIGHT; ONLY 30 LBS. PER 100 SQ. FT. (TAR AND GRAVEL WILL WEIGHT ABOUT 600 LBS. PER 100 SQ. FT.)

      21.  RESISTANT TO NORMAL FOOT TRAFFIC
