INSUL-3K™

INSUL-3K™ can be added to most any paint, coating or even stucco. It is suitable for use on roofs, ceilings and walls, both interior and exterior. It can be used in hot weather climates to keep buildings cool and cold weather climates to keep buildings warm. INSUL-3K™ is more efficient in warmer climates.

TEXTURE & SHEEN PROPERTIES:
INSUL-3K™ will sometimes add a slight texture to most paints and coatings. This texture is generally not visible, but might be felt. It will also flatten the sheen of a coating somewhat. With a flat finish this will not be noticeable, but satin and semi-gloss finishes will lose some of their sheen. If a high gloss finish is desired it is recommended that INSUL-3K™ be added to the primer coat and then again in the first coat. Complete the application by adding a final coat without INSUL-3K™.
