Eagle Aluminium Paint – Light & Heat Reflective Protective Coating
Superior Solar Protection & Heat Reduction for Roofs & Metal Surfaces
Eagle Aluminium Paint is a thin, bituminous-based aluminium coating designed to provide light and heat reflectivity, helping to reduce solar degradation and heat gain. With a silvery finish, it offers long-lasting protection for bituminous coatings, aged asphalt, and primed steel.
Key Benefits:
✔ High Solar Reflectivity – Reduces heat absorption, prolonging the lifespan of roofing materials.
✔ Protects Against Solar Degradation – Preserves bituminous and asphalt coatings.
✔ Durable Silvery Finish – Enhances appearance while offering long-term weather protection.
✔ Versatile Application – Suitable for bituminous coatings, aged asphalt, and primed steel (not for expanded polystyrene).
✔ Quick Drying & Easy Application – Dries in approximately 1 hour, ensuring fast project completion.
Application Guidelines:
Surface Preparation:
- Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and structurally sound.
- Remove grease, dirt, rust, or organic growth (e.g., moss or lichen) with a fungicidal wash.
- If surface dust or weathered bitumen is present, prime with Eagle Bitumen Primer and allow to dry.
Application Method:
-
Stir Very Thoroughly Before Use – Do not thin. Continue stirring periodically.
-
Apply with a brush or mohair roller using light pressure (for best results, use a soft bristle brush).
-
Coating Requirements:
- Apply 2 thin coats.
- The first coat should just cover the black bitumen surface.
- Apply the second coat as soon as the first coat is dry. Avoid pooling.
-
Drying Time: Approximately 1 hour, depending on temperature, humidity, and surface conditions.
-
Weather Considerations:
- Do not apply if rain, frost, or overnight dew is expected before drying.
- Bronzing may occur if conditions are not observed.
-
Wear polarized sunglasses when applying on bright days to reduce glare.
Waiting Period Before Application Over Other Coatings:
-
Hot-applied coatings: 24 hours
-
Solvent-based coatings: 3 days
-
Water-based coatings: 14 days
Safe Handling Precautions:
-
Flammability: Highly flammable – follow appropriate safety measures.
Eagle Aluminium Paint is the perfect protective and reflective solution, ensuring heat reduction, extended material lifespan, and superior weather resistance.
