INSULADD® gives paint unique energy savings properties that resist and reflect heat while dissipating it. 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.

Insuladd® can reduce heating & A/C bills 40%!

Don't just paint when you can INSULATE!
