It can reduce the need for air conditioning but not eliminate it.

Having that paint means that you aren’t picking up radiated energy because you are reflecting it but doesn’t do much about conduction or convection.


If you are on a cement slab which is heating up, you still get heat.

If the air is 100 degrees outside, you still get heat simply through air currents.

You didn't read. There are already radiant paints on the market as I said in the OP. They claim this one is different and actually cools surfaces too. They claim it can cool an area to below surrounding temperatures. They are saying it is more than a radiant blocking paint and functions as an A/C.
