Astec Exterior Coatings
1.
2. Tough yet attractive
One coating that does it all! Most paints are merely colored wall coverings, with
llm1ted protective qualities. Astec exterior coatings are much more. By incorporat-
ing ceramic insulating particles, Astec provides a durable thermal barrier equal to
several inches of other types of insulation. These ceramic particles, combined with
a sophisticated blend of plastics, terpolymers, weatherproofers, anti-shrinkage
materials, and other agents, make Astec coatings highly resistant to sun, water and
pollution. It resists cracking, peeling or blistering, providing a tough protective
exterior that stays beautiful year alter year.
The paint that insulates
As an exterior or interior wall coat-
ing, Astec offers amazing insulating
qualities... helping to cut heating
costs in winter, cooling costs in
summer.
Weatherproof, waterproof, corro-
sion proof - proof positive. Unlike
ordinary paints, Astec exterior coat-
ings take a beating. They're highly
resistant to harsh weather, ultraviolet
rays, atmospheric pollution, corro-
sion and condensation. Test results
and actual applications have proven
Astec is virtually unaffected by wind-
driven rain, chemical pollutants,
hot and cold cycles, sand abrasion,
and fungus, to name a few. These
coatings are highly elastic, and bond
to virtually any material - metal,
wood, cement, brick, blocks, asphalt,
and other difficult surfaces. They're
water-based, can be applied with a
brush, roller or spray, and dry to a rich,
beautifulllnen, matte finish.

3. Don't just take our word for it
"Last August we protected our
historical research library building
with Astec waterproofing and found
that we are no longer experiencing
high humidity or salt buildup... Our
coliection is irreplaceable and we
did quite a thorough search before
deciding on the Astec system ...
We are entirely pleased with the
results. "
- Page Edwards, Jr., Director
S/. Augustine Historical Society
"... The cooling is easily applied,
can be tinted to any color desired
and is suitable for any type of
building material... The cooling is
unquestionably an effective and
cost~tficient way to insulate build·
ings and slili maintain an attractive
appearance... "
- James N. Amend, Cap/.

and Support Directorate of Civil
Engineering
