Consumers should consider using the latest technology in house paint before beginning any spring painting project that could yield substantial energy savings. NASA’s technology transfer partnerships have reaped benefits for consumers and businesses for decades. The importance of NASA and leaving it alone and untouched by government and the Obama administration has never been more important. Even private enterprises have internal operations that are non-revenue but they spin out revenue producing opportunities that serves the good of the public. NASA’s recent spin off or technology transfer to benefit consumers is INSULADD, a powder that mixes in with any interior or exterior house paint and turns that paint into a radiant barrier.

INSULADD is a proprietary paint additive in powder form that is designed to mix into ordinary paints and creating a ceramic like surface on the dried paint that acts as a radiant barrier that blocks the transfer or heat or cold.

The published INSULADD paint properties:

• Saves energy by reducing heating and cooling demands,
• Resistant to atmospheric pollution,
• Provides a high impact resistance,
• Non-toxic and environmentally friendly,
• Highly scrubable on all surfaces,
• Excellent crack bridge,
• Exceptional film durability,
• Resistant to UV degradation,
• Bonds well to a wide range of surfaces,
• Gloss retention and mildew resistant,
• Easy to apply,
• Rapid drying for quick re-coating,
• Easy cleanup with soap and water,
• Dampens sound, and
• Prevents condensation

INSULADD comes in various options and consumers can visit the website or call 1-888-748-5233 or email sales@insuladd.com with any questions before you begin your spring painting projects.
