He first got started working with great minds in aerospace and wildland firefighting that were trying to create more survivable fire shelters for firefighters. That evolved into groundbreaking fire-resistant materials and sprays. Their intumescent coatings can be sprayed on the surface that needs protection. It dries clear, contains inhibitors effective against rot/mold/mildew and termites, prevents ignition and spread of fire on treated surfaces, and the fire protection lasts years from just a single application. The home protection process is comprehensive and efficient. It includes pressure washing to remove dirt and debris from structures, the spraying of the intumescent coating, cleanup, and any other fire prevention measures such as vent upgrades, deck enclosures or window treatments. The FireShield fabric is a long-lasting insulation that will not burn and withstands heat to over 2300 degrees Fahrenheit. It creates no smoke or fumes when hit by flames, can be used to secure vents, structural openings, or manufactured into covers and frames and has been incorporated into fire shelters for firefighters and Forest Service. The FireShield fabric has also been used to cover utility poles to prevent fires started by lightning strikes and has been adapted for use in rocket stand wraps by a major private aerospace company. Sun Fire Defense started as a company driven by the passion to save both property and lives and continues to put forth their upmost drive and persistence to keep moving that innovation forward.
