Description

Durex® is a specially formulated point impact resistant EIFS lamina system engineered with proprietary aggregates to protect against damage caused by woodpeckers or other similar types of wildlife as well as other types of point impact exposure.  Durex® Point Guard consists of two (2) specially formulated non-combustible polymer modified base coats, Durex® Diamond Plus and Durex® Diamond Flex.  Durex® Diamond Plus, the first layer in the system, is a green, 2-component impact resistant coarse base coat which is applied over the cured EIFS fibreglass-reinforced base coat or other similar cementitious coatings. Durex® Diamond Flex, the second layer, is a light grey, fine, flexible, one-component base coat. Any of our Durex® Architectural Finish Coatings can be applied over the Durex® Point Guard system.

Advantages
  • Superior point load impact resistance
  • Can be installed on both new Durex® EIF Systems and over of existing EIF Systems
  • Excellent compressive and flexural strength
  • Coarse, dense material for higher strength
  • Highly flexible second layer for excellent crack resistance
  • Excellent adhesion to new &existing EIFS lamina and other cementitious coatings
  • Excellent freeze-thaw stability
  • CAN/ULC S716 compliant
  • CCMC listed (13103-R)
  • Economical
Uses

Durex® Point Guard is recommended for use in geographical areas inhabited by woodpeckers and other related wildlife, which is known to cause damage to exterior walls clad with EIFS and other similar cladding systems.
