What is the difference between intumescent paint and fire protection spray?

Written by Adam Krawczykowski on .

Intumescent paint forms a relatively thin coating that expands when exposed to high temperatures, creating an insulating layer.

A fire protection spray creates a layer of insulating material as soon as it is applied.

Intumescent paints are often chosen for visible structural elements, while sprays are particularly suitable for protecting large areas and structures with complex geometry.
