The invention provides a gray solar reflective cooling 
coating and a preparation method of the gray solar reflective cooling 
coating. The 
coating adopts a water-based acrylic 
emulsion as film-forming base stock, so that the coating is good in 
ageing resistance, long in outside service life, nontoxic and environmentally-friendly, and has good 
stain resistance, alkali resistance and 
water resistance, and good 
adhesive force to base materials such as concrete, 
metal, wood and glass. The gray solar reflective cooling coating is prepared from complementary color 
pigment pairs with a strong near 
infrared reflection or 
transmission function, such as black and white, blue and orange, purple and yellow, red and blue and the like, and 
titanium dioxide as functional pigments, assisted by a plurality of body pigments and assistants; therefore, the gray solar reflective cooling coating is simple to prepare, low in cost and friendly to the environment. The gray solar reflective cooling coating has excellent near 
infrared reflection and heat insulation performances, has good cooling performance, and can be widely applied to decoration and 
energy conservation of roofs and outer walls of buildings, and the optical performance meets the latest 
national standard requirements.
