How Thermilate Works
How to use Thermilate
Thermilate is extemely easy to use, its simply a matter of stirring it into your paint.
Step 1 Empty contents of paint into a bucket.
Step 2 Empty contents of Thermilate into the same bucket.
Step 3 Mix together well, and apply to walls/ceilings/surfaces as you normally would.
NB; If you feel that the paint has got slightly thicker once the Thermilate has been added, a little water can be added, to reduce thickness, if the paint is water-based.
For maximum benefit we advise you to use 2 coats of paint with Thermilate mixed into it, as this will create a very effective thermal barrier.
Thermilate, can create a slightly textured feel, and can very slightly lighten darker coloured paints. In this situation, if you want a perfect flat finish and perfect colour, simply apply 2 coats of undercoat containing Thermilate, and then a final coat of your paint without Thermilate mixed in.
This will give you a flat finish, and the perfect colour you want.
Which paints/coatings can Thermilate be mixed in?
Thermilate can be mixed with almost all commonly used paints/coatings.
Paint containing Thermilate can be applied with the usual methods of applying paint such as a brush, roller, paint, pad or spray equipment.
If you’re-using spray equipment, remove the filters first.
One pack of Thermilate mixes with 5 litres of paint.
For surface preparation, paint application and cleaning, etc, just follow the paint manufacturer’s usual instructions. You don’t need to do anything different just because Thermilate has been mixed in.
Use a ratio of 1:4 by volume;
However one pouch of Thermilate is ready to mix with one 5 litre tin of paint.
