Heat Proof Paint

Van Heat Proof Engine Paint for Thermal Protection and Longevity

When it comes to maintaining your van’s engine, protecting critical underbody and engine components from heat is just as important as tuning or regular servicing. Kool Wrap offers high-performance van heat proof engine paint that acts as a protective thermal barrier against heat, moisture, and corrosion.

Ideal for campervan builds, commercial vans, and performance conversions, this specialized coating is designed to keep engine bays cooler, prevent rust, and enhance the durability of high-temperature components.

Why Use Heat Protective Coating for Vans?

Modern van engines run hotter than ever, especially in confined engine bays or during long trips. Our heat protective coating for vans is formulated to reflect heat, reduce surface temperatures, and protect metal parts from heat-related degradation.

Key Benefits:

  • Shields metal surfaces from extreme engine heat
  • Reduces thermal soak in underbody and engine areas
  • Prevents rust and corrosion in hot environments
  • Enhances appearance with a durable matte or gloss finish
  • Improves thermal management in performance and converted vans

From diesel engine bays to turbo setups and underbody exhaust systems, Kool Wrap coatings provide a heat-resistant layer that lasts.

Underbody Heat Shield Paint – Protect the Hidden Areas

Often overlooked, the underside of your van takes a beating from road heat, exhaust proximity, and weather exposure. Kool Wrap’s underbody heat shield paint is engineered to protect your van’s floorpan, wheel wells, and exhaust areas from radiant and conductive heat.

Common Use Cases:

  • Areas above exhaust pipes and mufflers
  • Around diesel heater units and pipework
  • Underfloor battery or fuel tank compartments
  • Wheel arches and lower firewall zones

This paint forms a durable ceramic-based thermal coating that deflects heat and moisture, extending the lifespan of nearby components and improving insulation performance in campervan builds.

Thermal Barrier Paint for Vans – Keep Your Cool Inside

Comfort matters when you’re living or working inside a van. Kool Wrap’s thermal barrier paint for vans acts as a first line of defense against heat intrusion. By applying this coating to interior walls, ceilings, or bulkhead surfaces, you reduce the amount of heat that seeps into the cabin — especially helpful for van conversions or vehicles with minimal ventilation.

Where to Apply:

  • Interior side of engine bulkheads
  • Van walls behind kitchen units
  • Roof panels under solar panels
  • Wheel arches and floor areas near exhaust systems

Our thermal barrier paint is compatible with metal, fibreglass, and even timber substrates. It also makes a perfect primer layer beneath sound-deadening or insulation materials.

Easy Application – Professional Results at Home

Whether you’re a DIY van builder or a professional installer, Kool Wrap’s van heat proof engine paint is designed for quick, hassle-free application. It adheres to most metal and composite surfaces and cures quickly to form a high-temperature barrier.

Application Tips:

  1. Clean the surface– Remove any oil, rust, or loose debris.
  2. Apply primer(if required) for better adhesion.
  3. Brush, roll, or spraythe paint evenly across the surface.
  4. Let it dryfully before exposing to high temperatures.
  5. Cureas per instructions for optimal heat protection.

The result is a strong, heat-resistant finish that looks great and performs even better.
