There may be more of a return to do this in Phoenix Arizona than Vancouver BC.

subdivision which could spread, but I cannot find a supplier of the necessary base and top coats for the white roof.

I tried going to the website of one supplier and requesting info on local dealers -- no answer.

I also just tried this organization, but cannot get my request through their security. (those darned little distorted pass codes! just won't cooperate).

Since I'm in Florida, I'm sure that loads of people in my area would go for anything that would lower the spring through fall house temps (lowering enormous electric bills) AND would help lower the rate of raising global temperatures.

Does anyone know who to contact or where to get necessary suplies in Northeast Florida?
