Intumescent Paint Vs. Fire-Retardant Paint
Cost: Intumescent paint is typically more costly than fire-retardant because it''s a specialized application requiring extra labour, materials, and fire

(2) Type H is a thick coating type fire-resistant coating, also known as a fire-resistant thermal insulation coating. Every fire retardant paint has a required film thickness—measured in mils or microns—to achieve its rated fire protection. Calculate the square footage of the surface and use the manufacturer's coverage chart to determine how many gallons or liters are required. These coatings create a thick, insulating layer that protects the underlying material from reaching its critical failure temperature. ASTM E-119 measures the the time it takes for a coating to fail under extreme heat and flame. Normal painted surface burns within 5 minutes, BAUMERK ANTI-FIRE Paint extends this time for 2-3 hours du n the fire and f the rust, dirt and moisture. Fire-retardant paints minimize the spread of fire and smoke over a given surface by releasing a gas that helps dampen the flames.
