Developed from NASA technology, HY-TECH ceramic insulating paint additive is a fine, white powder blend of high strength ceramic "microspheres". Each single ceramic microsphere is so small that it looks to the naked eye as if it is a single grain of flour, (slightly thicker than a human hair). When mixed into paint the painted surface dries to a tightly packed layer of the hard, hollow "microspheres", (Hy-Tech's exclusive CVM, ceramic vacuum matrix technology.) The tightly packed film reflects and dissipates heat by minimizing the path for the transfer of heat. The ceramics are able to reflect, refract and block heat radiation (loss or gain) and dissipate heat rapidly preventing heat transfer through the coating with as much as 90% of solar infrared rays and 85% of ultra violet-rays being radiated back into the atmosphere. Hy-Tech insulating additive is completely inert and can be mixed into ANY paint, coating or composite including interior house paint, exterior house paint, roof paint, solvent base coating, epoxy, urethane, high temperature paint, elastomerics, mastics etc. The addition of the ceramics to any material provides heat reflection, insulation, improved fire resistance, and lower heating / cooling costs. We recommend that surfaces have at LEAST two coats of paint containing ceramics to get results. This is based on the small size of the ceramics and the need to have then distributed evenly on a surface. More coats will produce better results. Package size represents the amount of paint that package will treat. For example the "1 gallon package" will treat 1 gallon of paint. The "5 gallon package" will treat 5 gallons of paint, etc.

Therma cells work great for some applications but many people seem to miss-interpret the benefits of using it.I used it on my school bus conversion's interior walls and did some testing on it. I used Rust-Oleum bedliner and did a thick two-coat application for reference. I would highly recommend a thicker coating like a bedliner for use with this product.I found that my walls were noticeably cooler after applying the coating. My 1st control was an un painted area which was too hot to hold a hand to after sitting in the sun all day, 2nd control was bed liner with no Therma Cells and then I had the area I applied it to. The second area was about 4 degrees cooler than the first but still noticeably hot to the touch. The Therma Cell area was only another 2 degrees cooler than the second, but it was not warm to the touch.My conclusion is that it seems like Thermacells are very effective at lowering the HEAT CAPACITY of a coated material, but not necessarily it's actual temperature. This means that thermacells will make the coated area a poor condutor of heat to the air around it, but won't necessarily work wonders on the actual temperature of the material itself.I'd definitely purchase this again as it seemed to cut down radient heat and touch-surface's (perceived, not really actual) temperatures noticeably.

This product was packaged well and arrived quickly. I've heard of a product like this from a local company that does roofing,windows and house painting. They showed me the amazing insulating benefits of the paint and the amazing lack of heat transfer to prevent the suns scorching heat from heating the interior. It does make a noticeable difference. It helps keep the a/c to run alittle less. I don't have a lot of windows, but I noticed the rooms with a windows would get a little warm but not like before. The paint additive did make a difference. Oooh. That local company with this special paint wanted to charge me $20k. I'm soo happy to find this company that carries this special paint and additive to mix in your own paint for a more affordable price. Thank you. Customer for life.

Product seems To Increase room temperature a Degree or Two. Apartments in building have temperature sensors that connect to heating system. Apartment wgere the product was used on outside facing walls show a degree or so warmer than before the product was used.

Easily mixed into paint, works as stated. Utility box full of electronics in 100 degree blazing sun never exceeds 135 when it used to reach 165 internally. Will purchase again!

I researched the living daylights out of this product so I knew exactly what we were getting into. The only trouble that we had was trying to find a professional painter that would agree to mix it with the paint and apply it to our home. Big strike out. We found a handyman That took no issue. He mixed it with the paint that we purchased according to the directions. We did have to buy him a new nozzle because the product did wear his nozzle down significantly. It does not look any different than if we painted without the product however it reflects/rejects/bounces back heat that would normally come from our hot Arizona sun. We purchased enough to mix with the primer that was first applied, and then mixed again the recommended amount with the paint that went over the primer. It looks truly amazing and does not provide any indication that there is anything in the paint. That really mattered because I didn’t want our home to be sparkly or have some weird additive looking effect. It just simply looks professionally beautifully painted by the handyman that did the work. I helped him throughout much of the process. I highly recommend this product. It is like having a secret barrier or shield over your home.

This stuff does help. I have a block wall which faces west in phoenix az. I tested several areas one with white paint, one white with additive and one the medium brown of the original house color. Original house was 148 degrees plus the white alone dropped temp 20 degrees and finally the white with one coat of additive dropped temp by 30 degrees . at 10 to 15 extra dollars per gallon I figure here in the hottest city in the country its gonna be well worth the money even if its on 10 - 15 degrees. With our insane heat and an uninsulated block wall every bit helps!
