How it Works
TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® coatings can be used on Wood, Metal and Stucco.
What is an exterior coating?
TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® coatings undergo extensive testing for fade resistance. Every 1,000 hours of testing is equivalent to approximately 2+ years of exposure...5,000 hours is equivalent to 10-12 years.
On average, TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® is 100% more heat reflective than the conventional technology of competitive products.

Save on Energy Costs!
Save on Maintenance!
A nearly two-year study by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory found that TEX•COTE® COOLWALL® Coating Systems:
- • Significantly reduce exterior wall temperatures while helping reduce energy consumption
- • Provide superior resistance to fading as compared to conventional paints - even in dark colors
- • COOLWALL® has been tested by the DOE to reduce Cooling Cost by up to 21.9%.
- (Percentage of savings are based on the DOE study which showed savings ranging from 4.2 - 21.9%)*
*Percentage of cooling cost and surface temperature reductions will vary based on color chosen, geographical location, climate condition, and substrate type. In some climates there may be a heating penalty. For more information, visit www.texcote.com.
- Help reduce energy use
- Prevent moisture penetration
- Reduce building fatigue
- Prevent colors from fading
- Lower maintenance costs
- Are an environmentally friendly “green” product
In fact, COOLWALL® is the only coating system tested effective by the US Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory to save you on cooling costs. More importantly TEX·COTE® SUPER COTE™ COOLWALL® is the only true “Green” coating system, and TEX·COTE® is a member of the US Green Building Council.
