Spectracool
Heat-reflective roof paint
Spectracool helps reduce heat entering through metal or concrete roofs. Its white surface reflects sunlight and releases heat as infrared radiation.

If less heat enters through the roof, air conditioning may use less energy. Estimating savings requires electricity use data under comparable conditions.
Silicone that resists ponding water
Once cured, the flexible silicone membrane resists UV exposure, weathering and ponding water, according to the datasheet. For acrylic coatings, resistance to ponding water depends on the formulation.
Sunlight and rain help clean the surface
Sunlight activates photocatalytic additives that can break down certain organic residues. Rain helps wash them away. The effect depends on light exposure and the type of soiling.
Application and coverage
Spectracool can be applied to corrugated metal, concrete and fibre cement. A 20 kg pail covers about 60 m², depending on porosity and texture. On a previously coated roof, follow the datasheet to test adhesion on a small area.
Buy the coating or book installation
We can guide you through applying it yourself or prepare and coat the roof for you. We offer delivery and pickup in Panama and Natá. Include the roof material and area when requesting a quote.
