Lone Star Flight Museum - Galveston, TX   PDF (57 Kb)
Project Architects Details
K13, Lonestar Flight Museum The Lone Star Flight Museum is a stroll back through the history of aviation. Two large hangars house the museum's many vintage aircraft and automobiles. Patrons browse in cool air-conditioned comfort while listening to hit songs from the days when these planes were flying high.

Without K-13, reverberations created by the highly reflective metal surfaces and the cavernous nature of the hangars would make music and even normal conversation unintelligible. Outside noise from the surrounding airport and rain beating on the roof would add even further to the noise problem. A two inch application of K-13 White effectively solves these problems.

The high thermal conductivity of metal surfaces transmits heat freely, making heating and cooling costs astronomical. K-13 provides a uniform insulation coating, significantly reducing heat loss/gain. Other types of insulation leave voids and compressions, greatly reducing their performance. In addition, the white K-13 fits the owner's color scheme, brightens the building and eliminates the aggravation and expense of repainting.

Superior acoustic control, choice of colors, ability to conform to any substrate configuration and an attractive, uniform texture made K-13 the best ceiling finish choice for the Lone Star Flight Museum. No matter what your design requirements and budget constraints are, K-13 products can be customized to meet your needs.
