amazing way of showing how affective a simple special paint could be on the door in case of fire. I presume the same applies to a fire-door when by mistake normal paint is applied to it, that could reduce fire-door ability to resist the fire.

+Chenny Chen You can paint with regular brush or roller. It dries to recoat in 4 hours. www.insl-x.com/product-detail/inslx-products/fire-retardant-paint is a link to the manufacture's specifications.
Three nights ago, my neighbor's house across the street, a huge 3 floor house, caught fire, and in the space of a FEW minutes, the fire spread to the entire house. The firefighters spent six hours battling that fire. Most of the house collapsed, the rest was brought down by a crane due to safety concerns, and all that is left is a pile of rubble. My neighbors are okay, but they lost everything, including three of their cats, who were not able to get out and lost their lives.... Today I understand why the fire engulfed the whole house so incredibly fast: it was a balloon frame house. So, now I am very worried because my house, which is smaller, has however a balloon frame. Besides smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers, would painting all the interior walls of the house with an intumescent paint help in the event of a fire, in order to at least have enough time to get out, and get the pets out as well?
ondine hd I am not sure it would help on standard plaster walls, it is typically used in common area’s like halls and stairs and on combustable surfaces, mostly wood, to slow the spread of fire and extend the time people have to escape. It wouldn’t save a house in itself. I would consider a local specialist that may have more information that can be applied in your house. Basically the video is just to show how the product works.
In a normal residential house fire there should be enough time to evacuate the building in its standard constructed state. The application of an intumescent coating to interior combustible surfaces is unlikely to assist greatly, but it depends on the actual construction and the surfaces you apply to. In this demo video some idiot has applied an intumescent coating to a piece of cardboard and then applied a flame which is unlikely to achieve a sustained heat release of anything more than approx 300 degrees C, barely adequate to allow the intumescent coating to intumesce. There is no real practical or cost effective way to improve the fire resistance of interior combustible surfaces in a residential property.
I realize this answer is 3 years late but the analysis Absolutely! Here is a demo done by a fire department on a actual house. th-cam.com/video/dnV5lrbi5so/w-d-xo.html
Flame retardant chemicals have been banned from a lot of furniture due to how toxic they are. Would not be surprised if there's nasty stuff in this paint.
Thanks for the demo. Would have liked to see what it looks like it you scrape off the burnt areas to show the extent or lack of damage.
if I do it again I will try to remember.
you can see the box is entirely carbonized what are you talking about
Great video, we carry out intumescent painting to steel frame buildings in the UK.
Good to see the famous, world beating British here.
pretty cool to see in action! but what does the inside of the painted side look like?!?

Would this protect on fiberglass surfaces
Thank you. Gonna get me some for my home.
Is that what firetrucks are painted with?
Can u please tell which is better ablative or intumescent paint ?
Nice video.We have started fire coating work in our 4 storied industrial building.
What is the product you used? Thanks
Very good. Thank you !
you do not need any thing special to paint it? just a regular brush? also does the first coating need time to sit before second coating?

The name of that video incase you don’t want to use the link (I understand) is
“Contego Intumescent Paint: Control Burn Test”
Wow! Thank you so much for this video. And cute cat btw :D
We know this is real but funny enough each time you switched sides it was off camera :D
THIS IS VERY GOOD
Just learned about this stuff. Does it all have that popcorn texture?
it isn't actually a pop corn texture, but the paint itself is thick and doesn't level well. I didn't put a lot of effort into smoothing it out.
Paint Tech oh I see thank you. Well great test and I appreciate the reply and video.
What ingredients and chemicals in paint? Anything toxic?
Flame retardant chemicals have been banned from a lot of furniture due to how toxic they are. Would not be surprised if there's nasty stuff in this paint.
Yes it's work not bad nice 😃😃
Te o dia de oje nos brasil nao temos uma tracrisao oara portugues gratidao e muito interesante
can this be painted the wall next to the hub in the kitchen?
it probably can be, it is dull flat and not at all washable though.
it is only for reduced flame spread and or reduced smoke/gas development, this is no way to test intumescent coatings
I would've never known the box would've lit on fire
Starlite starbrite, first arson I see tonight. I wish I may, I wish I might, figure out what this shit is made of so I can sell it to the governmight
Yes
