What Is Ceramic Exterior Paint?
Ceramic paint appears similar to latex paint but contains ceramic microspheres. These microspheres help ceramic paint outperform standard latex paint in multiple ways, and they disperse throughout the coating as it dries.
The paint applies thicker, coating your house in a shell-like protective surface that repels water and lasts years longer than its competitors. Expect the following from your ceramic exterior coating:
- 25-year warranty
- Efficient and professional painters
- Mold, mildew, and algae protection
- Customized tints
Rhino Shield ceramic coating is different than standard paint on a chemical level. After years of scientific research, we found that the unique combination of elastomeric acrylic resins and urethane resins provided the most durable and attractive coating possible. This combination offers a flexible, rubber-like covering that bonds with your building’s exterior, extending its lifespan while adding strength and resistance to your exterior.
This bonding element allows your wooden exterior to breathe, lessening unsightly peeling or cracking and preventing water damage.
Benefits of Ceramic Exterior Painting in Metro New Orleans
Why choose ceramic paint? In the following, we explain the benefits you’ll receive from this higher-grade exterior paint compared to standard house paint.
Any Type of Surface
Unlike latex, ceramic exterior paint works on virtually any material. This advantage saves you time shopping around for matching paints from various brands while ensuring a complete uniform look over the entire building. You won’t have to switch between latex and oil paints during the painting process, making it easier.
Longevity
Rhino Shield MidSouth offers a transferrable, 25-year warranty on the product, providing peace of mind that your painting job will last. The paint repels contaminants and weather and prevents cracks and chipping. Typical paint jobs last five to seven years, requiring retouches throughout.
When you choose ceramic, you can trust your paint job will survive the salty, humid New Orleans climate.
Eco-Friendly
This low-odor, non-toxic paint proves safe for all the residents and local wildlife. You require less ceramic paint to complete the job, lowering your carbon footprint with reduced shipping and handling.
Ceramic exterior paint will also lower your utility bills by adding insulation to the building and reflecting UV rays, reducing electricity use.
Durability
Prevent algae, mold, mildew, and bacteria growth by using ceramic paint. With its protective qualities, you’ll save on repair costs and can rest easy knowing its water-repellent properties prevent wood rot, salt damage, and leaks.
This paint prevents inclement weather damage, a significant benefit in New Orleans.
Curb Appeal
Because it will maintain its attractive qualities for decades, you’ll boost curb appeal for years when you choose ceramic exterior painting. The transferable warranty increases the building’s property values, enhancing resale opportunities.
With 1,500 available tints, you can create your preferred appearance with a wide range of color choices.
Saves Time and Money
Due to its longevity, you can save on the time and money required to paint more frequently. Once you choose ceramic exterior paint, it’ll last up to 25 years, compared with traditional paint, lasting only five years. The tough shell lessens your need for repairs and replacements of building materials, further saving you money.
Stain Resistance
Its chemical makeup prevents water and other liquids from absorbing into the paint, ensuring a stain-free exterior. Make cleaning easy again, and know that your routine exterior cleaning will provide a brand-new appearance.
