Silver-Shield®

Product Discription

Silver Shield

Silver-Shield® is a premium quality, high solids content, fibrated aluminum roof coating formulated from specially selected asphalts, oils and resins. It combines waterproofing capabilities of an asphalt roof coating with the reflectivity of aluminum paint. Silver-Shield meets and exceeds ASTM D 2824, Type III.

Features & Benefits

  • Saves Energy

- A Silver-Shield® application reduces under roof temperature by 8°C or more. As a result, the workload on the building’s air conditioning system is reduced by as much as 1 ton (metric)/ 9.7 m2. Proper interior temperatures can be maintained at lower cost.

  • The Best By Test

- Laboratory tests under conditions far more rigorous than any normal field experience verify Silver-Shield’s improved performance and longevity. Silver-Shield® surpassed conventional reflective coatings in bake tests, accelerated weathering, freeze-thaw cycling, flexibility and reflectivity tests.

  • High Solids Content

- Garland selects only the best grade aluminum flakes and uses more of them per gallon in Silver-Shield® than competitive manufacturers use in comparable coatings. The result is unequaled reflectivity that lasts for years.

  • One Step, Labor Saving Application

- Silver-Shield® is a one step aluminizer. An emulsion base coat and a 30 day drying period are not required. A one coat application saves time and money - without sacrificing energy savings.
1)Expose a panel of black asphalt roofing to a radiant heat source. Place a thermometer on the opposite side...and watch the temperature go up.
2)Then, expose a panel of the same roofing, painted with Garla-Brite, to the same heat source. A thermometer on the other side of the panel will show more than a 8° difference in temperature.
