Platinum Exterior 1000

About Platinum Exterior 1000

Platinum Exterior 1000 is a water based, 100% pure Acrylic Elastomeric Coating. This superb coating

product is a Low VOC exterior, thermal barrier paint that is based on innovative ceramic andelastomeric technologies. Combined, they exhibit enhanced weatherability and resistance to UV

degredation, moisture penetratrion, abrasion, and solar radiant heat. The paint is the ideal solution for

both commercial and residential purposes.

Quality Ingredients + Eco-Friendly Composition

Eco-Protective Products manufactures Platinum Exterior 1000 using the highest quality raw materials

enabling performance like no other paint on the market. The coating derives its unmatched performance

from infused proprietary ceramic micro-beads and 100% pure elastomeric resins. This provides two

important benefits: 1) more of the material painted on the walls will remain once cured because there are

no solvents to flash-off and 2) the paint cures 3-4 times thicker than normal paint, adding tremendousvalue and protection to the exterior of a home or facility. Platinum Exterior 1000 DOES NOT contribute

toward exterior air pollution or ozone production like other high performing exterior paints.

Platinum Exterior 1000 contains zero plasticizers (these are plastic-like materials added to paints to

increase elongation. They degrade when exposed to sunlight, leading to a loss in color stability and a

brittle, poor performing paint that gradually loses adhesion and leaves substrates susceptible to external

damaging).

Delivers Long Lasting Value at a Fraction of the Lifetime Cost of Traditional Paint

Year after year, businesses, homeowners, and property management companies spend valuable Time and

Money repainting buildings and facilities. Platinum Exterior 1000 will last 15+ years. Therefore,

building owners/ managers can avoid as many as 5 costly capital outlays for repainting. By eliminating

spending Thousands of Dollars every few years as required with traditional paint, Eco-Protective

Products Platinum Exterior 1000 frees capital to be invested toward more profitable endeavors of your

company or organization.

Increased Energy Efficiency

Platinum Exterior 1000 produces an increase in energy efficiency when applied to the exterior walls of a

facility. During summer months, exterior surfaces that are exposed to sunlight act as a heat sink,

collecting daytime heat and transferring it into a building's interior. Platinum Exterior 1000 virtually

eliminates painted walls as a heat sink because it is highly reflective and emissive, radiating solar energy

away from buildings instead of transferring the energy into the interior.By lengthening the painting cycle to once every fifteen (15) to twenty (20) years, and reducing power

bills and HVAC maintenance costs, Platinum Exterior 1000 will allow customers to save thousands of

dollars every year.

Ease of Installation

Installation begins by using a diamond grinding combination vacuum system to remove surface

contaminants, reduce surface irregularities, and reopen the concretes micro-capillaries and pores. The

coating systems Polyaspartic resins permit the application by brushes, rollers or airless sprayers and can

be completed using teams of two (2) to three (3). Both applicators and customers benefit. Eliminating

the use of expensive dual component spray rigs makes the job more cost effective and easier to perform.

Rapid Return to Use

In both small and large spaces, the preparation and product application can be completed within one (1)

day. Time to re-coat averages less than one (1) hour between coats; the typical installation of all three

coats requires four (4) to five (5) hours, and once completed, full operational use can resume on the

treated surface in under twenty-four (24) hours.

ResistancesHEAT - Unlike many coating systems, extreme heat loads will not compromise the integrity of the

coatings surface. This feature is especially important to surfaces exposed to the high heat carried by the

tires of vehicles and machinery or the spillage of hot liquids.

CHEMICALS - The coatings dry film is highly resistant to most chemicals, and even exposure to many

of the most detrimental chemicals will not sacrifice the performance of Eco-Coat 1500.

SOLAR UV - UV radiation tends to excite the molecular structure of coatings causing discoloration,

fading and loss gloss retention; however, Eco-Coat 1500 is an aliphatic coating that demonstrates

excellent UV resistance and color and gloss retention.

Durability

Sustainable construction is at the core of green construction and retrofitting. Eco-Coat 1500 coated

concrete floors have an outstanding level of durability and performance. The superior longevity of Eco-

Coat 1500 is the surest environmentally-friendly and economically sensible investment.

Eco-Transport Coating

About Eco-Transport Coating

Eco-Transport Coating is a 100% acrylic elastomeric coating infused with proprietary ceramic micro-

beads. This high flex coating exhibits superior adhesion, weatherability, and solar reflectance providingan excellent solution for refrigerated trailer tops.

The thermal barrier coating exhibits two important surface properties: a high solar reflectance rating and

an equally high thermal emittance rating. Solar reflectance is the percentage of solar energy that is

reflected by a surface, and thermal emittance refers to the ability of a material to release absorbed heat.

A standard refrigerated trailer roof is made from a sheet of uncoated aluminum covering 2 inches of

polyurethane foam. Although aluminum has a good reflectance rating (.71), it has a low emittance rating

(9%). This is why on hot afternoon the roof temperature on a refrigerated trailer can reach in excess of

185 degrees effectively transforming the roof into a heat sink transferring heat through the insulation and

into the trailer interior.

Coating the roof of a refrigerated trailer with Eco-Transport Coating changes the dynamics of the roof.With the application of Eco-Transport Coating the reflectivity rating increases to .84 from .71, an 18%

improvement, and the emittance improves significantly to 86% from 9%, an astounding 856%

improvement. After application, the roof temperature on a sunny 90 degree will stay within 5 degrees of

the ambient air temperature, virtually eliminating the roof as a heat source.

reefers, smaller refrigerated vans, and recreational vehicles.Eco-Transport Coating is a 100% acrylic elastomeric coating infused with our proprietary ceramic

micro-beads. This high flex coating exhibits superior adhesion, weatherability, and solar reflectance

providing an excellent solution for refrigerated trailer tops.

Q: How does Eco-Transport Coating work?

A: The thermal barrier coating has two important surface properties: A) high solar reflective rating and

B)an equally high thermal emittance rating. Solar reflectance is the percentage of solar energy that is

reflected by a surface. Thermal emittance refers to the ability of a material to release absorbed heat.

A standard refrigerated trailer roof is made from a sheet of uncoated aluminum covering 2 inches of

polyurethane foam. Although aluminum has a good reflectance rating (.71), it has a low emittance rating

(9%). This is why on hot afternoon the roof temperature on a refrigerated trailer can reach in excess of

185 degrees effectively transforming the roof into a heat sink transferring heat through the insulation and

into the trailer interior.

By coating the roof of a refrigerated trailer with Eco-Transport Coating we can change the dynamics of

the roof. With the application of Eco-Transport Coating the reflectivity rating increases to .84 from .71,

an 18% improvement, and the emittance improves significantly to 86% from 9%, an astounding 856%

improvement. After application, the roof temperature on a sunny 90 degree will stay within 5 degrees of

the ambient air temperature, virtually eliminating the roof as a heat source.

Q: What test results document Eco-Transport Coatings claims?

A: The performance measures of Eco-Transport Coating have been tested in house and corroboratedwith independent third part testing, all conducted to ASTM guidelines and parameters. Although the

laboratory results are impressive, the empirical results achieved with the application of Eco-Transport

Coating are resounding.

Q: How soon does Eco-Transport Coating produce a return on investment?

A: Eco-Transport Coating is a high-value investment for any climate controlled transportation fleet. In

individual case studies, companies that have implemented Eco-Transport Coating as part of a strategy to

reduce green house gas emissions and increase fuel efficiencies have seen a rapid return on investment

(ROI) and often reach a break-even point within one (1) year of application.

Through energy efficiency gains, reduced operational downtime to conduct repairs, and an increasedcompressor lifespan, Eco-Transport Coating is the surest investment in any market environment.

How long will Eco-Transport Coating effectively reduce the cooling load of containers and reefers?

20/25

Q: Are special cleaning techniques necessary to maintain optimal performance?

A: Eco-Transport Coating is exceptionally resistant to mold and mildew growth as well as dirt

accumulation. Often, the coating will self-clean from rainwater and ocean spray; however, if operated

in arid climates or in dry seasons, regular pressure washing will ensure the coating maintains optimal

reflectivity and emissivity to ensure maximum energy efficiency.

Q: Will Eco-Transport Coating work on maritime containers as well as over ground freight?

A: Absolutely. Not only will the coating provide enhanced fuel/energy efficiencies and decreased

compressor run-time on the water, it will also generate tremendous energy savings while in port or

shipping yard. Many port cities have passed rigid energy conservation and green house gas emission

laws, and in addition to reducing energy consumption, Eco-Transport Coating also helps to minimize a

ports carbon footprint and green house gas emissions, helping to make the area cleaner and safer for

workers and residents.

Q: Does the coating still contribute toward energy savings if other containers are stacked on top, and it

isnt exposed to direct sunlight?

A: Although a container at the bottom of a stack (2-3 containers high) does not receive direct solar

energy, the energy is radiated downward to the bottom containers through the higher ones. Overtime,

this radiated heat will be transferred into the interior of the container forcing the compressor systems to

continually run in order to maintain a constant internal temperature. However, if the containers were

coated with Eco-Transport Coating, instead of the radiated heat transferring into the coating, the highly

thermal emissive qualities of the coating would dissipate the solar energy away from the container.

Q: Is Eco-Transport Coating an eco-friendly product?

A: Eco-Transport Coating is a water-based, Low VOC coating and contains no harmful solvents, only

natural water, so it will not off-gas or contribute to the production of ozone or other air pollutants.Q: Does Eco-Transport Coating help reduce carbon emissions and air pollution?

A: Reducing diesel fuel is not exclusively a MEANS to financial savings but an END in and of itself.

Reduced fuel consumption carries tremendous benefits to our environment and is a hallmark of a

Socially Responsible. For every Gallon of diesel fuel that is conserved, twenty-two and one half (22.5)

POUNDS of Green House Gases and over 40 known HAZARDOUS AIR POLLUTANTS (According to

the Clean Air Act) are prevented from being emitted into the atmosphere. Imagine the promising future

for our planet that we can engender through intelligent and innovative reductions in fuel consumption.
