Investing in premium cool roof coatings is one of the most effective solutions.
Introducing Star Cool Shield+, a revolutionary heat-reflective paint that offers impressive energy savings above and beyond simple waterproofing.
In this blog, we'll explore the benefits and features of this innovative product and show you why it's the best option for all of your roofing needs.
What is Star Cool Shield+?
This is a new technology developed by our engineering team. It is a revolutionary cooling method that can efficiently cool various devices, from laptops to air conditioners.
Star Cool Shield+ is a flexible elastomeric acrylic air barrier used on flat and low-pitch roofs to create a continuous, watertight layer on top of the roof panel area. This new formula works by stretching and retracting along with your roof’s texture.
Cracks and leaks can only develop once time passes. But Star Cool Shield+ isn't just a water-repellent coating; it's also a high-albedo paint with the highest SRI (Solar Reflectance Index) value of 130. This means it reflects an incredible 97% of sunlight, drastically reducing the heat your roof absorbs.
How Star Cool Shield+ Works:
Star Cool Shield+'s unique combination of UV-blocking chemicals and reflecting particles accounts for its outstanding performance.
When applied to your roof, this sun-reflective paint forms a shield that reflects the sun's rays, keeping heat from entering your structure.
Thermal insulation helps you use less air conditioning and pay less energy costs by maintaining a lower interior temperature.
Star Cool Shield+ has excellent waterproofing qualities and is heat-reflecting.
Because of the elastomeric acrylic formula's special expanding and contracting qualities, it can fill in gaps and cracks to build a barrier that is entirely smooth and free of weak joints and overlaps.
Even in the worst weather, your roof will stay leak-free thanks to this unparalleled waterproofing technology.
