beat the heat

Paint company MRF Vaporcure has come up with an innovative product Aquafresh Cool, which will help people to stay cool during summers. All you have to do is paint the terrace with it. This single pack water based acrylic paint prevents heat build-up on the roof by continuously reflecting IR radiations from the sun back to the atmosphere. It is designed to act as a preventive, thereby facilitating reduction in heat transfer from the roof to the interiors of the building. The roof top temperatures can come down by 12 to 5 degree Celsius after the coating. The higher the external temperature the greater will be the reduction in heat internally.
