When you're choosing a protective coating... HOW HOT IS YOUR HOT? \ \ y A Nose Cone Gets Hot When conventional organic finishes were used in Chrysler Redstone Missile tests, they ignited and disintegrated under simulated re-entry con ditions. Sicon survived because it possessed the inherent heat r e s i s t a n c e to meet perform ance requirements. This has been confirmed in large scale tests and actual missile firings.

A Truck Heater Gets Hot A porcelain type coating used on a truck heater failed because it could not stand t h e thermal shock of rapid heat ing and cooling. T h e same heating (550°-600°F.) and cooling left Sicon's film integrity unaffected.
