Durex® ACR – TEXTURED METALLIC is a specially designed architectural finish system that is intended to replicate textured metal façade surfaces available in several shimmering metallic colours, when applied over the base coat of our Durex® EIF Systems. Durex® ACR – TEXTURED METALLIC is ideal for creating distinctive architectural features on exterior/interior wall surfaces and can be applied to new and existing buildings. It provides a flat textured yet metallic sparkling surface incorporating reveals and control joints, allowing the designer the flexibility to replicate the appearance of panelized facades.
