Protect Your HomeBefore Wildfire Strikes

Clore is designed to add an extra layer of wildfire defense to areas most likely to ignite around your home, including vegetation, decks, fencing, sheds, and wood surfaces. It is not a replacement for defensible space, home hardening, or firefighters, but it can help reduce ignition risk on treated areas when applied as directed. During last year’s Southern California fires, private firefighters verified that 16 Clore-treated homes faced direct fire or ember exposure, and all survived. Outcomes vary, but that is why many homeowners use Clore as an added layer of protection before wildfire risk rises. Clore has been third party tested for effectiveness by CAL FIRE and is listed on the CAL FIRE vendor list.

Most homeowners use Clore on the areas most likely to ignite or carry fire toward the home: vegetation within 10 ft of structures, trees within 30 ft of structures, wooden fencing, decks, sheds, outbuildings, house wood siding, and other combustible exterior surfaces. The recommendation quiz helps estimate how much product you may need based on the areas you want to include.

Yes. Clore is third-party tested and designed to be safe for pets, plants, and people. It is made for homeowners who want added wildfire protection without applying something harsh or uncomfortable around their property. Our product was tested by StillMeadow, Inc. and showed no clinical signs of acute oral toxicity during the testing. The test substance acute oral LD50 is greater than 5000mg/kg. This represents category IV in the EPA 4 toxicity categories for acute hazards of pesticide products; which is the lowest hazard category, the same category as milk.

Clore is designed to provide season-long wildfire protection on treated areas when applied thoroughly as directed, meaning you only need to apply Clore once per season. If there is heavy rainfall of 3 inches cumulative or greater, then reapply Clore. However, if these conditions arise, usually you are out of fire season.

No. Clore kits are designed for homeowners to apply themselves using the included battery sprayer, adjustable nozzles, and jugs of Clore long-term retardant. Most applications can be completed in under 90 minutes, depending on the size of the property and the areas being treated.

Your recommendation is based on your home size, nearby vegetation, exterior wood surfaces, and extra areas likely to ignite like decks, fencing, sheds, or trees. We recommend the smallest kit that should cover the areas you selected, so you do not have to guess or risk coming up short.

If your estimated need is above what the smaller kits can fully cover, we recommend the 30-gallon kit so you do not run short during application. The 30-gallon kit is a concentrate that mixes 50/50 with water to make 30 gallons ready to use. The goal is to give you enough product to cover the areas you selected, not to recommend more than you need.

The 10-gallon and 15-gallon kits are ready to use. The 30-gallon kit is a concentrate that mixes 50/50 with water to make 30 gallons ready to use. Your recommendation will show which kit fits your property.

No, if applied according to the instructions, you will not be able to tell any difference when Clore is sprayed on any surface. Our product is intended to act as a clear coating and will dry once applied.

Clore uses a long-term fire retardant formula designed for wildfire defense applications.
