Energy Star Dirtguard I.R. Gloss remains COOL even in dark colours. The product is manufactured using colour infused nano ceramics that reflect fully 50% of Solar heat by selective reflection of infrared light.

The product is a highly modified 100% acrylic gloss. It is low V.O.C, and incorporates Astec Dirtguard and proprietary cross linking technology. The product was originally designed to tolerate the demanding environments in Asian cities, providing excellent long-term resistance to dirt pick-up and mould.

The product is water resistant, flexible and has exceptional flow and levelling properties. During brush or spray application the product levels to a very smooth and uniform gloss finish. The product is principally used for metal roofing applications where a low film build, but highly infrared reflective, (S.R.I. 112.33), coating is required.

The cured film is tough, flexible and block resistant, and because it remains cool, testing has shown that it will last eight times longer than all conventional acrylic roof coatings. Astec Energy Star paints were the first in Australia to earn the ENERGY STAR label for energy efficient paints. As an Architect, Builder or Homeowner, cooler buildings are a positive contribution to our global environment with reductions in Urban Heat, Smog and through energy efficiency, help reduce CO2 emissions.
