*Note: these values are derived from application at 120 lb/100 sq ft. Use of lower application rates may affect resulting SRI and/or resulting color.
**SRI values are calculated following ASTM E 903 and E 891 (100-point ordinate method), then the E 1980 SRI calculator following R. Levensen of LBNL using a materials emittance of 0.90 and typical ambient meteorological parameters.
***Non-standard colors.
Scofield's Technical Data Sheet requires that a mockup be done under actual jobsite conditions using each color. Prior to beginning the job itself, each SRI should be determined and approved by a commercial laboratory that is equipped to perform SRI testing in accordance with acceptable ASTM standards.
