Insuladd Insulating Paint Additive is a proprietary ceramic material that is used to create a highly efficient radiant barrier. This additive is designed to mix into ordinary paints thereby creating a radiant barrier "insulating" paint! The thing that makes Insuladd ceramic paint so special and well, "ceramicky" are the tiny ceramic spherical beads used as "energy reflectors" in the paint... they look like a finely ground powder when poured in your hand.

Insuladd® insulating paint has been making homes and businesses more energy efficient for over a decade. Developed originally by NASA for the space program... and now available to the general public. This very effective "green" technology helps the EdenPure infrared heaters work even better... by holding and reflecting more infrared heat back into your living area.

NOTE: Up to 60% of the heat-gain (summer) and heat-loss (winter) is through your home's ceiling and roof... So to see the Biggest Energy Savings you will want to use Energy Sav-R Paint (this acts a radiant barrier) on every ceiling in your home AND for more savings you will want to use Energy Sav-R Paint on the entire underside of your roof (up in your attic).

Testimony: "I had the entire exterior of my two-story house in the San Francisco Bay Area painted with two coats of Insuladd-added-paint. The following month I noticed a significant reduction in my PG&E bill. I am delighted with Insuladd and will be using it the next time we have my rental units painted. I am also encouraging my senior citizen clients to use Insuladd for the obvious savings it provides. You folks have a wonderful product!" - Joanne L. Gardiner

Homeowners and building contractors have proven Insuladd paint additive is not only highly effective in making insulating paint, it's simple to use for any homeowner. Worldwide users of Insuladd® insulating additive such as the Climatic Test Branch of the U.S. Missile Command, Pratt & Whitney Aerospace, Hyundai, Samsung, The U.S. Navy, The U.S. Coast Guard along with 1,000's of homeowners have proven Insuladd's value as an insulating paint additive under the most intense conditions. The NASA Space Shuttle program brought awareness of ceramic insulating technology to the general public. Insuladd® mixed into paint will create what's known as a "Radiant Barrier" that essentially makes your home more comfortable year round. Insuladd® adds a very high thermal reflective factor to paint as well as a very high "broad spectrum" thermal emissivity to the paint to which it has been added. Think of Insuladd® as a mirror (invisible mirror) that reflects heat. Heat that escapes your home in winter when outside air temperatures are cold and that enters your home in the summer when outside air temperatures are hot. Thermal paints such as Insuladd® do not work in the same manner as fiberglass and foam insulation (blocking heat & energy) however they accomplish the same thing by "reflecting" heat and energy, which is the reduction or heat loss (winter) and heat gain (summer) into your home.

Insuladd® was actually developed via the NASA technology exchange program.

Insuladd® ceramic paint additive has withstood the rigors of the most extreme and demanding conditions including applications on a U.S. Navy Arctic Research Vessel, oil storage tanks in the Middle East, Metal shipping containers, factories and warehouses.

Just as Insuladd® insulating paint additive has proven to withstand the elements for commercial and military applications, Insuladd® has again and again proven to be able to save homeowners as much as 40% off their normal heating and cooling costs!

Putting Insuladd® paint additive into your next painting project is a huge advantage because it's saving energy and saving you money on utility costs... and it's going to pay for itself many times over! Do you like the idea of "green" paint that pays you dividends for years and years?

The Insuladd® insulating paint additive has unique energy saving properties that reflect, resist, and dissipate heat. The hollow ceramic microspheres reflective quality affects the warming phenomenon called "Mean Radiant Temperature," where heat waves from a source such as direct sunlight cause a person to feel warmer even though the actual air temperature is no different between a shady and sunny location. It is the molecular friction within the skin caused by the sun's radiant energy waves which makes the body feel warmer.

• Increases insulating value to all paint by making it an insulating paint.
• It's safe and not toxic.
• Is an insulating paint additive for roofs, walls, and ceilings.
• A paint additive for interior and exterior use.
• A ceramic paint additive for hot or cold climates.
• Reduces heating and cooling demands.
• Easily mixes with your locally available house paint to make it insulating paint.
• Ideal for all residential and commercial painting applications.
• Saves you money by reducing your heating and cooling demands.

Reducing heat gain by as much as 40 percent has been seen in the summer by using Insuladd® paint additive. Heat loss in the winter will drop dramatically by using this ceramic paint additive making chilly rooms become comfortable. Eden Pure Infrared Heaters work much better in a room painted with Insuladd because it is a radiant type heater and the ceramic paint with emit infrared heat back into the room.

For paint projects in your home, Insuladd® insulating additive is available in kits containing from one to 25 pouches. Just mix one pouch of Insuladd® to one gallon of paint purchased from your neighborhood store. For those larger and commercial projects, Insuladd® ceramic paint additive is available in "Value Jugs" which is the appropriate size for mixing Insuladd with five gallon pails making superior insulating paint out of your ordinary paint.

Insuladd® insulating paint additive has proven effective and has been evaluated in virtually every house paint normally found available in paint stores. Scientific evaluation of the paint additive by independent labs such as the Climatic Test branch of the U.S. Army and Geoscience Ltd. prove the performance and energy enhancements expected from Insuladd®.

Energy Star rated this superior roof coating qualifies for tax savings. In 2009 the US Energy Secretary is saying that every house in America should have a white roof. Tests have shown that the e-coat can reflect up to 40% more energy than white paint alone! So painting your roof with e-coat could be the best way to cut your energy bills quickly.

NASA technology is now being used in Energy Sav-R-Paint for your home or business. This research and development has produced a "light elastomeric liquid solution"... which is a ceramic paint additive mixed into a fluid rubber like paint that's easy to apply to most structures. E-Coat helps you save energy by reducing the solar concentration generated by extreme sunlight on large surfaces. Insuladd has been shown to produce a 40 percent reduction in heat gain generated in your home from the sun! This will save energy cooling demands for you in the summer thus reducing utility bills. Insuladd® E-Coat works in winter by reducing heat loss into your home as well as moisture condensation problems.

USING INSULADD ADDITIVE:

We recommend getting an empty 5 gallon plastic bucket and then mixing 1, 2, or 3 gallons at a time. Mix the Insuladd Additive together with your locally available house paint. Apply 2 coats of paint with Insuladd for best results... This is a simple basic system recommended for use where a normal re-painting is planned and where priming or extremes in outdoor temperatures are not a factor. It also provides the ease of choosing any paint color that you desire from your local paint store. You will want to purchase 1 pouch of Insuladd for every gallon of paint you will be using or 1 Jug of Insuladd for every 5 gallon pail of paint you will be using.

You can also mix the Insuladd into your primer and mix Insuladd int the first coat of paint... then paint the finish coat with straight paint with no Insuladd to get a smoother or shinier finish (if desired).

QUICK Q & A:

Question: How many coats of paint should I apply?
Answer: For best results 2 coats of paint are recommended to insure an even distribution of the ceramics.

Question: Should I use Insulating paint both inside and outside?
Answer: Yes! For the optimum in energy efficiency it is best to use Insulating paints both inside and out, however either application alone will increase your energy efficiency!

Question: How much of the ceramic additive do I need?
Answer: Packages are pre-measured for 1 Gal or a "Value Jug" for 5 Gallons of paint. You can figure on an average coverage rate of 250-300 sq. ft. per gallon for most house paints on smooth surfaces.

Question: Can I spray paint with the ceramics in the paint?
Answer: Yes! Simply remove all filters from your spray equipment (or they will strain out the additive) and use a slightly larger spray tip than normal. Recommended tip sizes are .019 - .025. Wagner spray equipment (the "power painter" handhelds) and power rollers will not work as they do not produce enough pressure. Airless paint sprayers, from any manufacturer, that will produce at least 2500 psi and support the tip sizes listed will spray the material quite easily.
