Resistant Paints - up to 1200 degrees F, 650 degrees C. Heat
Resistant Paints are NOT "Fire Paints". Heat Resistant Paints remain
as surface coatings and do not gas or swell up. Fire Paints give off a harmless,
inert gas (to stop surface spread of flame) and Intumescent Fire paints swell
up to 40 times their original thickness to provide an insulating barrier. IMPORTANT
- Heat Resistant Paints do not protect the material beneath the paint from damage
or fire - they just protect themselves from breaking down at very high (stove)
temperatures. Do not rely
on Heat Resistant Paints to protect delicate or flammable surfaces (e.g. wood,
paper) Click here for

Heat
Resistant Paints are NOT "Fire Paints".
Heat Resistant Paints remain as surface coatings and do not gas or swell
up. Heat Resistant Paints
do not protect the material beneath the paint from damage or fire - they just
protect themselves from breaking down at very high (stove) temperatures. Do
not rely on Heat Resistant Paints to protect delicate or flammable surfaces (e.g.
wood, paper) On the other
hand: Fire Retardant
Paints give off a harmless, inert gas (to stop surface spread of flame) and
Intumescent Fire paints swell up to 40 times their original thickness to provide
an insulating barrier. 'Fire
Paint' is a general term rather misleadingly used to cover both Fire Resistant
Paint, used as a top coat to protect the Intumescent Paint beneath and Intumescent
Paint or Intumescent Varnish, which are both fairly soft coatings used as a primer.
Class O and Class 1 are Classifications used regarding fire action on the surface
of the paint, whereas 30 Minutes, 60 Minutes and 90 Minutes describe the period
of protection given by the underlying Intumescent layers of Intumescent Paint
or Intumescent Varnish. We
can provide an Intumescent Paint price based on the thickness of the wood or steel
to be protected, and a separate price for the Fire Rated paint used as a top coat,
which acts as a retardent fire layer, producing an inert gas to protect itself.
