"In a before and
after test of coating our refrigerated trailers, we reduced the fuel
consumption by 26.8%. This makes for a very significant savings over a
year's time of running our reefer fleet." |
| Major Canadian Oil Refinery |
"We were able to take a 450°F
degree pipe, coat it with 200 mil of product and reduce the surface
temperature to 180°F degrees. Due to its location inside a building, this
lowered the building temperature considerably and reduced the noise inside
the building dramatically." |
| Bob Sanford of
Coach Works of California |
"Before coating the roof of
our coach the interior temperature exceeded 100 degrees. The ceiling was so
hot I couldn't keep my hand on it. After spraying TC Ceramic (on
the exterior roof), the temperature inside dropped almost 25-degrees, and
the metal ceiling was comfortable to touch." (May 1998 Bus Conversion
Magazine.) |

We coat the roofs of all of
our buses, trailers and RV's with TC Ceramic. It cuts the heat dramatically,
seals the roof and minimizes leaks because the roof stops expanding and
contracting in the sun. Our customers tell us that they dramatically reduce
the use of their air conditioners after their roofs are coated with TC
Industrial Ceramic. We even coated the roof of our shop. The shop doesn't
get hot anymore. |

"After coating the roof of
our first 40-foot transit coach with TC Industrial Ceramic, the interior
roof temperature dropped 15 degrees from one day to the next. In a side by
side test of two coaches with one roof coated with TC Industrial Ceramic and
one roof with white paint, the inside ceiling temperatures were 119°F Vs.
136°F. The TC Ceramic roof was 17 degrees cooler. This was in
May before our extreme summer heat. We are also coating the underside of
transit coaches because of extreme floor heat from road surfaces." |
| Gordon Mills of Los Angeles |
"We put TC Ceramic
on our coach roof. We noticed a dramatic difference in the temperature of
the coach the next day. It was much cooler while sitting in the sun and the
air conditioner does not run as much." |
| Jack Conn of Phoenix |
"After coating the inside
shell of my eagle coach conversion with 30 mil of TC Ceramic, it
went from being an oven inside in Arizona sun, to being almost cold inside.
We also coated half a piece of sheet metal on one side. In the sun, the
difference between one end and the other was more than 40 degrees. |
| Jim Witham of
Los Angeles |
"I coated the underside of my
Winnebago above the muffler and exhaust pipe with about 50 mil of TC
Industrial Ceramic. The exhaust heat
problems I was having are now gone. TC Industrial Ceramic is an excellent
insulation product." |
| Dynapower |
TC Ceramic was
very impressive when tested for insulating for breakdown volts. At 26 mil it
was effective to 1400 breakdown volts and at 50 mil it was effective to 2500
breakdown volts. |

After the reefer roof was
coated, we pulled the temp down to 34° and left it overnight in a hot humid
evening with the reefer off and the next morning it was 40 degrees. We were
very pleased. On the trailer, we are now able to keep it down to 40°F which
we couldn't do before. |
| Beer

We are coating the interior
of roll-up doors of our delivery trailers with 40 mil of TC
Industrial Ceramic to be in compliance with our contract insulation
requirements with Coors. |

Kauai Cold Storage |
We coated the south and west
walls and the roof with TC Industrial Ceramic. In January, this cut the heat
through the walls and roof 15 to 19 degrees. Out electric bill dropped
approximately $20,000 a year - about 20% to 25%. |
| Beer Distributor, Southern
Florida |
Before we coated our building
(walls and roof), we set our refrigeration at 60° trying to maintain 68°. By
three o'clock each afternoon the interior temperature was 72° and climbing.
After coating the building, we have our temperature setting at 68° year
round. Our energy bill has dropped. |
| Capital Studios |
We used 40 mil of TC
Industrial Ceramic on the walls and ceiling of a new sound production room.
It cut the acoustical noise dramatically so as to not have a sound "ping."
The only problem now is that the room is too cold as the air conditioner
thermostat is in an adjacent room that is not insulated with TC
industrial Ceramic, thus is warmer. |
| James Kelly |
The coating on the roof
definitely improved the air conditioning in the coach. The girls used
blankets several times during the trip. The coating on the upper windshield
seemed to do well even though I covered it with black dull paint like
aircraft noses in front of the cockpit. If you feel the glass and then the
area coated, the glass is definitely hotter. Also the cupboards behind the
windshield are cooler. |

Co. |
I was in Tijuana this week to
check out the job we are doing down there. The Knakk Boxes that we coated
with TC Industrial Ceramic are working out very well. The equipment inside
is staying cool. |
| Arizona School District |
Coating the roof of one of
our metal buildings with TC Industrial Ceramic dropped the under roof
temperature 40°. |
| Midwest Power
Plant |
We coated our cold water
intake pipe with 40 mil of TC Industrial Ceramic. Before coating the pipe,
it sweat constantly and was a constant drip problem along with corrosion.
After coating the pipe, there was not a drop of water on the outside of the
pipe. |
| Midwest
Manufacturing Plant |
We have multiple cast iron
pressure vessels which have always been insulated. However, the corrosion
under the insulation was slowly eating away the iron. We coated the pressure
vessels with 200 mil of TC Ceramic to stop the corrosion and
insulate the units. The system is working extremely well. The corrosion is
gone and you can now put your hand on the surface of the vessel even though
it is operating at 350°F. |
| Midwest Manufacturing Plant |
Equipment that previously
could not be insulated completely, now is coated and insulated completely
with TC Industrial Ceramic. The equipment operating temperatures are 350°F.
The room temperature with little venting available, was 130°F which did not
allow for workers to work in there for more than 15 min. at a time. It is
now 110°F and workers can now stay in there for longer periods.

We have always had problems
with our ducting system due to condensation. After coating the outsides of
the ducts with 40 mil of TC Ceramic, the condensation problems
went away. |
| West Coat

We use to clean our dust
collection system every week. After coating the ducts with TC
Industrial Ceramic, we now clean the system every 30 to 90 days. Huge cost
savings. |
| Coach Conversion
Owner |
I just put on TC Ceramic on my 4502 and all I can say it is fantastic. I did not spray it on
but used a roller. I put on 4 coats, 9 gallons, roof down to the gutters. I
went from both A/C's on high w/thermostat set closed all the time. This is
100° plus heat now. After the TC Ceramic I now set the A/C's on
low speed and set the thermostat to slowly just just to keep it cool at 70°
degrees and they just cycle on and off all day. |
| Coach Owner |
Worst thing about TC Ceramic is getting rid of the icicles that form on the ceiling.
Lab tests results do not support some of the fantastic results that are
reported from the field. It has minimal thermal R value but does have good
reflective value and sealing capability. |
| Western Mine
Processing Plant |
We were having problems with
condensation and corrosion on the inside of our bag house dust collection
system. We coated the inside of the bag house and our condensation and
corrosion problems went away. The whole system is now more efficient now
that the condensation is not causing the system to plug up and to corrode.

We coated the roofs of all of
our keg reefer trailers and reduced the fuel and reefer maintenance costs by
30%. |
| Off Shore

We had not piping in several
areas of the ship. In one section, where it was 115°F, coating the hot pipe
with TC Industrial Ceramic dropped the room temperature 15°F.

We coated the outside of our
portable dog kennels with about 45 mil of TC Industrial Ceramic. Our dogs
are comfortable. Interior stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

"I am now doing a coach
for a man that bought ceramic paint for his coach. He bought it 3 years ago.
It is so hard on top that you have to use a heavy hammer to drive a 1.5
piece of angle iron down into it to brake it up and it takes at least 30
minutes of mixing to make it like thick putty. Then put it through hard wire
screen, twice, to get the lumps out. Is this the way it comes, or is it
because it is old? After two days I was able to spray 35 gallons on the
inside of his coach. By the way, I painted half off the S.S. exhaust pipe on
gen. set and run it 30 minutes. You could lay your hand on the painted side
but not the unpainted side. It does work. I put the paint on with an airless
and had a hard time with the top, didn't have the right one. It sprayed
better in the clean outside.". |
