One suggested alternative to commercial ceramic insulations is adding ceramic spheres (called "Micro Ballons") to inexpensive paint. "Micro balloons", also referred to as glass and quartz bubbles, are tiny hollow glass spheres that are about as thick as a human hair. Because the glass is so crush-resistant, it strengthens, stiffens, and adds water-resistance. | One suggested alternative to commercial ceramic insulations is adding ceramic spheres (called "Micro Ballons") to inexpensive paint.
