White elasto-plastic decorative and protective coating in water emulsion.
Once dry, SOLAR CERAMIC forms an elastic and seamless film that perfectly adheres to the products on which it is applied, and which fixes and protects the mineral finish on the bitumen-polymer membranes.
It is resistant to weathering agents and to any cracks that may form in the substrate.
The main feature of the product, thanks to the presence of a special ceramic powder, is the creation of a highly reflective shield against sunlight, ensuring excellent thermal insulation and thereby contributing to energy savings as well as prolonging the life of the bituminous membranes.

DESTINATIONS OF USE
SOLAR CERAMIC is specifically designed for COOL ROOF systems; it will reduce the temperature accumulated by the bituminous layers and will improve the scattered light over the roof and consequently also the efficiency and yield of any solar panels installed thereon as well as limiting the energy consumption of summer air conditioning.
By its nature, it is also a valid and effective protection against degradation caused by UV rays, on surfaces consisting of powdered, sandblasted, TEX or slate bitumen-polymer membranes and waterproofing bituminous liquid sheaths (water or solvent).
It can also be used on concrete, fibre cement, wood, tiles, and metal surfaces.
WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Carefully read the technical data sheet and the safety data sheet, available below.
- Stir well before use. The product fears frost.
- Before painting new membranes, wait at least 6 months from their laying, except for membranes with a daring top finish or TEX that can be immediately painted. Do not apply directly to membranes with PE film and gloss film finish but remove the finish by flashing.
- Do not store packages below +5°C and protected from heat sources, in dry places.
