Don't forget to use low VOC paint. Roof paint sounds like it will off gas a ton.
priceless info right there,thanks fw.can i ask why you prefer the kilz? im not doing a huge room but the kilz is kinda pricey from what im seeing.Dont use roof paint,Use FLAT pure white paint(sometimes called titanium white),I use Kilz pure white primer myself.Flat is much more reflective than gloss or semi gloss paint.The ingredient in white paint that makes it bright also makes it highly reflective,its called titanium dioxide.Flat pure white has the most titanium dioxide of any paint,they even call it out in specs for alot of buildings as it saves energy by allowing the use of smaller wattage bulbs to acheive the same brightness,good luck!
Ill make a correction to my last post as i went back through my files to see what i used the last time.It wasnt kilz that i used(sure its close to the same though)it was actually Zinnser 1-2-3 flat white primer and then i sprayed Behr premium plus ultra pure white flat over that(both available at Home Depot).The primer is anti mold/microbial and zero VOCs and the paint is super reflective,the only thing better is orcafilm and since i have both i can tell you its so close you almost cant tell the difference.priceless info right there,thanks fw.can i ask why you prefer the kilz? im not doing a huge room but the kilz is kinda pricey from what im seeing.
