Painting our Skoolie Roof with Henry's Tropicool

Painting our Skoolie roof with Henry Tropicool was especially important for us, since we didn't remove our school bus ceiling or change the original insulation. Even with our newly installed air conditioning running, the ceiling remained warm to the touch, and was actually HOT where the rivet lines attach the ceiling to the metal ribs inside. This was a perfect example of "thermal bridging" from Arizona sun shining on our metal roof! By the time Mike painted the second layer of Tropicool, we were shocked by the difference in the ceiling temperature!

About Us:
Hi! We are Mike & Kerry, the proud owners of a 1996 Bluebird rear engine (pusher), 40' school bus! We named her Bussy McBusface in honor of the RRS Boaty McBoatface travesty.
We're building a Tiny-Home-in-a-Bus for full-time living in the most adventure-friendly way possible! In other words, Bussy will not be parked in our driveway, waiting for weekend or holiday getaways... when we finish the build, we'll be packing everything we're keeping into the bus and driving away from this old house forever!
We plan to be boondocking the majority of the time, so you'll see that reflected in our choices throughout the build (100 gallon water tank, composting toilet, solar power system, etc). We'd love to have you stick around and follow us on our journey, throughout the Skoolie Build, and to Infinite Adventures Beyond!
Mike & Kerry

I'm in the process of converting a skoolie and watch your videos all the time. You always make everything looks SO EASY and it's so intimidating for someone with no experience...so it's AWESOME to see that even kick ass people like you guys have issues with rain, pollen, coats of paint, etc. Thanks for that perspective! I'm in the process of taping off and priming/painting/sealing 31 windows and it has been such a difficult process. Thanks again guys you rock!

Seen henrys recommends 1.5 gallons for 100 square feet. Pricey but from what I'm reading its worth it. The elastomeric silicone has a lifetime warranty and rain ready in 15 min. Wait 2-6 hours between coats(if you can afford it). Good luck all.

That's was a very tropiCOOL video. Dad jokes for the win again. The fireman hose reference as a shout out to Gilligan Phantom Justin made me chuckle. And once again I'm impressed that you didn't fall off the roof. It had to be crazy slippery. I'm am but I'm also not looking forward to doing this on our bus. Has to be a bit dangerous. Well done!

I am in the process of deciding on what to coat the roof of my bus with. I keep hearing that Tropicool collects dirt and is hard to wash off. I too am in AZ (Mesa). Now that you had it on for a bit, is it hard to clean the dirt off? does it accumulate quickly and finally would you do it again if you had a choice? You guys are awesome and entertaining at the same time!

I just started watching you channel and was wondering why you didn't build like a 2 or 3ft rear porch to carry like bicycles, ice chest, lawn chairs on and then mount your a/c unit there as well. Great job on all of your wood work inside.

Since you guys are so brilliant, what would you suggest I do to prep for Henry's if I've already sealed all of the roof seams with a thick layer of siliconizer to stop leaks? Will definitely be cleaning with soap and TSP the same way of course! Love your videos btw!

My bluebird has a yellow roof. In Mid July Texas Sun the exterior of the roof was 146 degrees. Inside the ceiling was 108 and the ribs were about 125. (F) My 13500 BTU roof unit was only able to keep the bus about 82 with the outside temp being about 95. Tomorrow I apply my tropicool and I will let you know the results of the temperature decreases.
