Abstract: The present technology provides a coating composition suitable for maintaining a cooler surface temperature in the presence of a UV source, e.g., the sun, as compared with a conventional coating composition. The present coating composition can reflect the sun's rays to provide a cooler surface when compared to other compositions of similar colors. The coating can be used to coat a variety of substrates and can be used, for example, as a coating for walking surfaces. When applied to a walking surface, the coating composition may provide a cooler surface that is barefoot-friendly, even in the presence of the sun or other strong UV source.

Abstract: A pet water dish designed to retain water when repeatedly overturned. One embodiment of the invention utilizes two annular chambers separated by a flat base, and having an aperture allowing water to flow from one chamber into a reservoir when the respective chamber is upright and also allow water to flow back into the chamber when the bowl is inverted. The pet water dish may be inverted repeatedly, and each time, most or all of the water is retained in the dish. This helps ensure that the pet will always have drinking water available.
