Nu-Flame Heat Insulating Basecoat is an intumescent paint basecoat developed to insulate flammable paint systems and control surface spread of flame. When exposed to a fire Nu-Flame Heat Insulating Basecoat releases a flame extinguishing gas which protects the surface. Simultaneously heat activates Nu-Flame Heat Insulating Basecoat underneath causing it to expand and create a fire protective barrier, insulating old paint films from heat and oxygen.
Nu Flame Heat Insulating Basecoat is an intumescent paint undercoat for application to previously painted plaster, Artex, board, brick and concrete walls and ceilings. This is then overcoated with desired Nu-Flame Fire Retarded Paint which insulates old paint films from fire, controlling the spread of flames along walls and ceilings.
