| The above table shows the internal and surface temperatures of three 2' x 2' stucco cubes. One with conventional paint, one coated with ThermaShield IRR and the final one coated with ThermaPrime and ThermaShield IRR. All three cubes were identical color. |
The use of ThermaPrime and ThermaShield IRR together are more effective than two coats
of ThermaShield IRR as illustrated in the chart below.
Three test cubes, each 2' x 2', were constructed in the same manner as stucco homes with
wood frame, black paper, lath, one-coat stucco and a thin sand finish texture coat. These
cubes had a thermometer suspended in the very center of each cube by criss-crossing
fishing line from opposite corners intersecting one another 12" from the top and 12" from any
of the interior sides. The base of each cube was then sealed off with 2" thick EPS foam to
prevent any mixing of interior and exterior air.
The Cubes then had a 6 dry mil
coating applied. Cube A had 6 dry
mils of generic architectural paint.
Cube B had 6 dry mils of
ThermaSheild IRR and cube C had
3 dry mils of ThermaPrime and 3 dry
mils of ThermaShield IRR. All three
cubes were coated with exactly
matched colored coatings (light tan).
The results showed the
combination of ThermaPrime and
ThermaShield IRR synergistically
reduced the interior temperature
30% more efficiently over using
ThermaShield IRR alone.
The generic paint.....well.......it
wasn't even in the same ballpark as
either of the two I.R.I.S. cubes for
internal or surface temperatures.
