Remillard Brick Kiln Offices
LARKSPUR LANDING, CA
One of three office building properties with wood siding walls painted with THERMO-SEAL for this customer. Its brutally exposed south-facing main face right off SF Bay and sides were painted in custom umber color that holds off heating and heat conveyed off the water.
We've been very pleased with the performance of THERMO-SEAL, applied to wood siding at this commercial building located in a harsh environment adjacent to the San Francisco Bay. Stress fractures have diminished and the colors are still vibrant years after application.

Jack Daniel Distillery
LYNCHBURG, TN
High need for cooling coupled with ability to stay clean, made cool roof ECO-THERM ELASTOMERIC the product of choice for this American whisky industry icon to coat over 1 million square feet of their dark “rickhouse” roofs on these wood-frame, steel buildings. Metrics show a significant drop in mean season temperatures inside the buildings and therefore, less evaporation of the 1.4 million gallons of precious whisky being fermented in the 26,000 oak barrels inside of each one.

PFI Property Management
SAN RAFAEL, CA (18,500 sq ft)
A 40-year-old title building roof with concrete tiles was made cooler with IR reflective THERMO-SEAL in color Cinnamoie. This paint job is a maintenance system that's fully deductible in the same year for both product and labor. Original, faded, slurry coated tiles are now both waterproofed and made solar heat-reflective which has transformed the curb appeal and value to a handsome fresh look and greater tenant quality of life. Before and after photos shows it all.

Office Buildings
SAN RAFAEL, CA
As promised, I wanted to follow up with you on our own office buildings since their exteriors were repainted with THERMO-SEAL and ECO-THERM coatings. Within days of the completion, we noted a tremendous difference in the interior temperature of the buildings on our typically hot summer days. In particular, I noted that the surface temperature of the interior walls was cool to the touch, whereas prior to the new coatings, they were quite warm.
Similarly, after our Park Road apartment building was also painted with THERMO-SEAL, I noted that on hot days my own apartment was 10 degrees cooler, and the surface temperature of my interior walls was cool to the touch, even when the sun was hitting the exterior surface. We are very impressed with your product and want to thank you again for your service to us.

This house used to be very hot in the summer sun. After the ECO-THERM coating, it has a cozy feeling and even kind of insulated. Certainly, it has less of a swing in temperature inside and we do not use air-conditioning here. Thank you! It looks great after 7 years!

Entire building envelope cooled down and made energy efficient with Ultimate Coatings! Iconic restaurant opposite John Wayne Airport had its very large, standing- seam, metal roof renewed and waterproofed with optimized, solar-reflective proprietary IHOP blue color in custom matched, ECO-THERM® Elastomeric by Approved Applicator. This "dropped the roof temperature by over 60 degrees" and allowed customer seating on the upper level during 100 degree summer weather (per son-in-law of owner). Walls were cool coated with THERMO-SEAL® 1500 semi-gloss in our stock Byron Beige color.

A top Green Coatings pick in report by the Journal of Architectural Coatings 2010.
The ECO-THERM® waterproofing solar-reflective coating made by your company that was applied to our 18 stories tall building, at has provided everything promised. It has remained looking new for over 11 years on a highly exposed hill above the salty San Francisco bay. In terms of energy efficiency, it is hard to tell based on the varied weather we get here, but one thing is for certain, no moisture has gotten into our walls since the building was painted with ECO-THERM®. We look forward to many more serviceable years despite the rigors of the climate change and its range of weather, which include hot sun, cold with salt fog, and of course lots of strong winds that attack this building every day.
The introduction of your product to our building is thanked each day by the shareholders.

"A water-based, low VOC roof system was chosen to aid in the establishment of LEED points, but also to meet the demands inherent in the architecturally free-flowing roof design and need for a cool roof without color white. Your ECO-THERM® Elastomeric top coating in solar reflective color Beige more than met our LEED credit requirements with 72% solar reflectance and became a beautiful and gorgeous finish for the roof, complementing the overall design. Thank you so much for your help and work with us toward our goal to be the first California Public K-8 School to obtain LEED Platinum Certification (2008) and also Green Building of America Award Winner (2009)."

"We are very pleased with the performance of the THERMO-SEAL coating done to our old tile roof 5 years ago. It still looks great and almost as if it is new. Thank you!"

“We did both our tile roof and the walls with THERMO-SEAL. We painted the house in Spring 2011 with the first break in the weather. Looks awesome. My wife is as happy as a clam. We did notice around a 20% reduction in the PG&E bill last summer for cooling, which is the bulk of the bill. That's real money saved since it gets and stays hot here for months. House basically rinses down with a hose due to the nice finish and dirt washes right off, which will lengthen the life of the paint job and save having to pressure wash.”

“Our top floor tenant happily reported immediately lower temperatures in their apartment upon completion of the paint job this past April. Since we have no AC in the building, this is a good thing and part of why we went with your THERMO-SEAL cool wall coating!”

We've been very pleased with the performance of ECO-THERM, applied to the stucco walls at our commercial buildings. Unlike the failure of the previous paint job after only two years, the application of ECO-THERM is still going strong after 10 years!

USS Monitor Museum
NEWPORT NEWS, VA
The 159 ft long, museum replica of the Civil War era battleship USS Monitor at the Newport News Ship Works, has been repainted with THERMO-SEAL 1500M in custom color, "cool black" semi-gloss. The original black paint had failed on the topsides and this repaint was so that school children and visitors do not burn their feet walking on it in hot springtime and summer weather. Even the cannon turret may be touched in hot sun! Project Engineer, Brandon Griffin, says the repaint reduced the surface temps "20 to 40 degrees depending upon the time of day."
Bahia Home Owners' Association
SAN RAFAEL, CA
It has been nine years since 56 of our Association's (fourplex) buildings were painted with the Ultimate Coatings' product, THERMO-SEAL®, and thus far the paint has held up to its claims of durability and coolness. The paint still has its original sheen and the colors seem as vibrant as when it was first applied. Other paints used in the past thirty-seven years began to fade a bit after three years and we always noticed a chalky residue in some areas. This paint still looks fresh.
