Below is dramatic footage from May 2009 Indy 500. No. 14 Vitor Meira's car has an ethanol spill that threatens to engulf the entire car. The pit crew and Delphi Safety Team douses the fire with Cold Fire, and the flames are out in seconds - and Meira is back on the track!
Below is an excellent demonstration of Cold Fire used against a tank battery fire in Brazil. Most firefighters will just walk away from a fire like this, and let it burn itself out over several days - at a great cost of both equipment and the environment. Now firefighters have something that will actually work. This was extinguished in just a few minutes with a 3% solution.
From the Herald Tribune:
BAY AREA - Bay area law enforcement agencies could soon be tossing out their fire extinguishers and using a new product to fight fires. The product, which comes in a small aerosol can, is called Cold Fire.
Cold Fire puts out blazes in seconds, reduces smoke and prevents the fires from re-igniting.
The product also acts as a heat barrier when sprayed directly on people and is said to cool down any surface immediately so it can be touched
Below is a demonstration done in Ecuador, again simulating a tank battery fire. They tested against gasoline, diesel, crude and even alcohol (ethanol). Each fire was put out completely in just seconds. Notice the change in color of smoke - at first, huge clouds of black soot, changing to clean white as the hydrocarbons are encapsulated and removed as a fuel source. Also notice in the demo how the men are putting their hands directly on the metal (which should be extremely hot) - demonstrating the instant cooling ability of Cold Fire, which lowers the temperature of whatever it comes in contact with.
News story from Salt Lake City. Cold Fire demo. Fire fighters emptied 5 traditional dry chem extinguishers into a car fire and were not able to put out the fire. One person without protective gear was able to extinguish the car fire with a single 2.5 gallon Cold Fire extinguisher in just a few seconds.
In May 2009, JRT Environmental and RDR Technologies demonstrated Cold Fire multipurpose foaming wetting agent against four large tires, set in the back of a pickup truck. Diesel was added to the pile as an accelerant. Soon, not only were the tires on fire, but the entire back end of the truck was in flames. Armed only with a 2.5 gallon extinguisher with a quart of Cold Fire added, the fireman put out the tires and the truck bed in just a few seconds.
