Excel Coatings

Thermal Test:

• Ambient temperature = 40º C
• Unpainted RCC roofing = 59º C
• Painted with EXCEL Flexicool = 43º C

This result proves the continuous rejection of solar heat, preventing the roof from getting hot. Maximum surface temperature will be only 3- 4ºC more than ambient temperature.

EXCEL Flexicool , when coated on the roofing materials, reflects sunlight to a greater extent and prevents the roofing materials from getting heated up, during peak summer afternoons. As the coating itself in not getting heated up, the air below the roof never gets hot, keeping the rooms cool and comfortable.

Some of the advantages are:

• Reduced Energy Cost
• EXCEL Flexicool topcoat remains white to effectively reflect the sun’s heat, reflecting about 85% of UV rays and 90% of IR rays. Reduces air-conditioning cost up to 40% and suits ENERGY STAR® & Cool Roof Rating Council Guidelines
• Colors: EXCEL Flexicool is available in white shade only as this improves the reflection power and to attain maximum result.

Packing:

• EXCEL Flexicool is a ready-to-use material available in various customized size packing. It may appear well mixed, but upon standing will settle into a two stage suspension. Thoroughly mix the contents of all containers using a power mixer for a minimum of five minutes prior to application without thinning or reducing the material.

Following are some of the advantages:

• Double Action – Reflects solar heat and keeps the buildings cool and comfortable during hot summer afternoons and prevents leakage of water during monsoon season providing a protective layer
• Ultraviolet Resistant – Continuous rejection of solar heat resulting in drastic reduction of roof heat
• Long Term Flexibility – 100% elastic acrylic polymers remain permanently flexible upon extended exterior exposure
• High Film Build – High volume solids allows fast application to uniformly cover textured substrates
• Color Stable – The acrylic resins crosslink under UV exposure to lock in colour and lock out dirt
• Reduced Energy Costs – Remains white to reflect the suns heat, dramatically lowering roof substrate temperature. Approximately 50% of the cost is saved in the area of humidification and air conditioning.
• Water-Based – Contains no solvents, cleans up with water. No toxic substance included.
• Fungus infected, black colored roof needs special chemical washing to increase the life of the coating. Comparative thermal performance of EXCEL Flexicool on RCC roofing materials

EXCEL Flexicool - (leak proof + heat reflective paint):

Our assortment of EXCEL Flexicool is double action paint, exclusively designed for RCC roofing substrate. This coating completely checks leaks during monsoon rains and reflects solar heat during summer, keeping the buildings cool and comfortable.

This results in:

• Building remaining cool even under intense sunlight conditions
• Prevents leakage during monsoon rains
• It blocks 90% of solar infrared rays and 85% of ultraviolet rays, keeping your roof cool, even in peak summer
• Resists formation of fungus and moulds on the roofs
• Life of the building is enhanced protecting water penetration through the cracks on roof
• Totally eliminates formation of cracks due to extreme weather conditions
• Air conditioning costs is drastically cut up to 40% by stopping the radiation of heat from the roof into the room

Our EXCEL Flexicool is a water-based, high solid, flexible 100% acrylic coating. It becomes leak proof when combined with high reflectivity, weather ability,ultraviolet resistance, adhesion. The ease of application makes flexicool an effective coating for providing leak proof and long term reflectivity over a wide range of roofing substrates. It forms; permanently flexible monolithic membrane, providing protection from normal weathering, aging and ultraviolet exposure. It acts as a protective layer resisting the water from penetrating inside, forming a permanently flexible membrane, preventing leakage during monsoon rain. It also protects RCC roofs from developing cracks due to summer heat.

Thermal Test:

• Ambient temperature = 40º C
• Unpainted asbestos roofing = 56º C
• Unpainted GI sheet roofing = 59º C
• Painted with EXCEL CoolCoat = 42º C

This result proves the continuous rejection of solar heat, preventing the roof from getting hot. Maximum surface temperature will be only 3º C more than ambient temperature. The temperature that has been mentioned above is the exact temperature of asbestos roof sheets recorded with the aid of Laser Guided Infrared Non Contact Thermometer.

Following are some of the advantages of EXCEL Coolcoat ™:

• Ultraviolet Resistant – Continuous rejection of solar heat resulting in drastic reduction of roof heat
• Reduced Energy Costs – Remains white to reflect the suns heat, dramatically lowering roof substrate temperature. Approximately 50% of the cost is saved in the area of humidification and air conditioning
• Water-Based – Contains no solvents, cleans up with water. No toxic substance included
• Low Cost Application & Maintenance - All these advantages at an affordable cost and the cost includes materials and cost of coating. No recurring maintenance cost. Roof gets cleaned automatically in rain
• Color Stable – The acrylic resins crosslink under UV exposure to lock in color and lock out dirt

Increase in temperature due to heat radiation from the roof is controlled, keeping the coated area comfortable even in peak summer afternoons. Salient features are as follows:

• EXCEL Coolcoat ™ blocks 90% of solar infrared rays and 85% of ultraviolet rays, keeping your roof cool, even in peak summer
• Eliminates the necessity for false ceiling
• Drastic reduction of roof heat up to 20º C in peak summer
• More the sunlight, more will be the re-radiation
• Can be coated on any roofing material / side walls
• Suitable for petroleum even for storage/tankers to control loss of evaporation
• Improved working environment resulting in improved efficiency
• Prevents Island effect
• Reflecting UV and IR rays back to the atmosphere
• Helps in reducing green house effect
• Resistant to water, fungus and mold
• Ideal for textile mills, warehouses, factories and residence areas
• Improves the efficiency of roof ventilators
• Reduces global warming
• Buildings looks brighter and new with all these advantages
• Reduced Energy Cost

EXCEL Coolcoat ™ topcoat remains white to effectively reflect the sun’s heat, unlike dark-colored roofs that retain heat and are subject to ultraviolet degradation. Roof temperatures can be reduced in excess of 50°F and it exceeds ENERGY STAR® and Cool Roof Rating Council Guidelines.
