Full details

Sandtex Trade 365 All Weather Masonry Paint is a high-performance solution designed for professional painters and homeowners who need to protect exterior masonry surfaces in challenging, unpredictable climates. Its core benefit is the ability to be applied in temperatures as low as -10°C and its rapid shower resistance within 20 minutes, though it requires specific solvent-based cleaning practices compared to standard water-based paints.

FAQs

Can I use this paint in the middle of winter?

Yes, it is specially formulated to be applied in temperatures as low as -10°C.

How many coats do I need?

For maximum durability and 20-year protection, you should apply two coats.

How long until it is showerproof?

The paint becomes shower-resistant just 20 minutes after application.

What tools should I use for rough surfaces?

A roller with a long pile or an airless sprayer is recommended for textured surfaces like pebbledash or roughcast.

Can I apply this over old paint?

Yes, it adheres to previously painted surfaces, provided the old paint is sound, clean, and stable. Remove any flaking material first.

What is the drying time between coats?

You should allow 16 hours between the first and second coat.

Troubleshooting

Paint is not sticking to the surface

Ensure the surface was cleaned of all dust and loose material. If the surface is chalky or porous, you must apply a primer or stabilizer first.

Equipment is difficult to clean

This is a solvent-based paint. Ensure you are using a proper proprietary solvent cleaner rather than water to wash your brushes and rollers.

Color variation between areas

Always intermix different cans of paint before starting, and ensure you are working with the same batch numbers where possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before application, ensure the substrate is clean, dry, and free of loose debris or organic growth. If you are dealing with chalky or highly porous surfaces, apply a coat of Sandtex Trade Stabilising Solution first to ensure proper adhesion. Glossy surfaces should be lightly sanded to provide a "key" for the paint to grip.

To apply, stir the paint thoroughly and intermix containers if you are using multiple batches to ensure color consistency. Use a 4-inch masonry brush or a long-pile roller for textured surfaces. Because this is a solvent-based product, you must clean all equipment immediately after use using a proprietary solvent-based cleaner, as water will not effectively remove the product.
