DESCRIPTION: STOP HEAT is a water-borne, high-performance coating solution designed to help reduce solar heat gain on exterior surfaces. Standard paints can absorb solar radiation and result in elevated surface temperatures. STOP HEAT is formulated with ceramics to reflect and re-emit radiant heat, which may contribute to lower surface temperatures in sun-exposed areas. Once applied by brush, roller, or spray, STOP HEAT can support improved surface comfort and may help reduce heat buildup through its reflective and emissive properties. STOP HEAT is flexible and durable, with low permeability that helps resist corrosion and visible surface deterioration. Suitable for use on buildings, RVs, boats, equipment, and similar applications.
Disclaimer: Actual performance depends on surface type, preparation, color, climate, and application method. STOP HEAT is not insulation and does not have a certified R-value. It should not be used as a substitute for conventional insulation or as a primary energy-saving product.
Characteristics:
Easy to apply – brush, roll, or spray
Ceramic-infused formula designed for solar reflectivity
Quick dry time: 2-hour overcoat at 70°F (21°C), 40% humidity & direct sunlight (may vary based on conditions)
Low VOC – tested at 21 grams per liter
Non-flammable – water-based
Cleans easily with soap and water
Mold & mildew resistant
Typical Applications:
Metal roofs & walls
Mobile homes and RV roofs
Shipping containers
AC unit shells, exposed metal ducting
Marine wheelhouses and vertical metal
Industrial tanks storing light hydrocarbons
Agricultural silos, horse trailers, chicken and livestock structures
Other exterior structures exposed to solar radiation
Recommended Primers:
Non-rusted galvanized roofs require no primer
Rusted metal requires RUST BASE primer
(Minimum 2 coats, each coat applied at 200 ft² per gallon)
For concrete use RUST BASE as a primer to seal the surface
(Minimum 2 coats, each coat applied at 200 ft² per gallon)
Tar, Plastic, TPO, PVC, Mod bit, Vinyl or EPDM requires AUTO PREP
SPREAD RATE: Proper thickness can be achieved in 1-2 coats, but STOPHEAT should always be applied to a wet mil thickness of 17 mils wet / 9.3 mils dry (431 micron wet / 236 micron dry). Each gallon covers 95 sq. ft./ 8.82 sq. m.
