Fireproof paint can be use for interior woods, exterior woods, closed cell spray foam, open cell spray foam, office buildings, nursing homes, apartments, hotels, restaurants, schools and commercial applications as well as residential.

FireShell® coatings  from TPR2 are proprietary ceramic-based non-flammable barrier coatings, which can be sprayed, rolled or brushed on. By being an certified applicator, Spray-Tech offers the manufacturer's warranty which can only be offered by certified applicators.

The products comes in white or light gray (depending on the product), most are also available in dark gray, red, charcoal, black, salmon. FireShell® coatings are not available in a clear application at this time.

The terms "fire-inert(non-flammable)", "fire-retardant" and "fire-resistant" are often confused.

• Fire-inert: A fire-inert material is non burning; that is, it won't support combustion.
• Fire-retardant: A fire-retardant material slows burning across a surface of a given a combustible substrate.
• Fireproof (as defined by UL):
• Fire resistant: A fire-resistive material delays heat penetration through a substrate. The critical difference is based on the method by which the material is tested and rated. Most paints are tested in accordance with ASTM E84. It should be noted that there is no relationship between fire-endurance (ASTM E119) and flame spread (ASTM E84) ratings. Fire endurance ratings apply more specifically to property protection by indicating a period of time before failure. Flame spread ratings indicate a degree of danger to life by measuring how flame will spread over a given surface. Significant consideration should also be given to the degree of smoke development and toxicity when comparing products, since smoke inhalation and smoke damage is most prevalent in fire related accidents.

FireShell® can meet code requirements in all 50 U.S. states and in many countries around the world. Your local fire inspector might already be familiar with this product. If not, Spray-Tech and TPR2 will be happy to provide technical assistance at the local level.

Being a ZERO VOC product, FireShell® has the lowest levels of VOC's of any paint product, standard or intumescent, on the market. The product is completely nontoxic before during and after exposure to flame.
