Rustico is a high build, multi-coloured, reflective coatimng. Formulated to create a rich, vibrant texture; it adds depth and complexity to any architectural surface. Rustico consists of aggregates and special reflective coloured minerals embedded in a clear 100% acrylic resin. Enhanced by halogen and natural light sources; resulting in endless interior and exterior design possibilities. It is one of the most visual of the Durex® Architectural Coatings.
- Exceptional durability.
- Excellent water repellency; protects surfaces from moisture penetration.
- Breathable coating; allows water vapour within the wall system to evaporate.
- Excellent adhesion to substrate.
- Colourfast, not affected by ultra-violet rays.
Rustico is used as an effective long wearing protective coating over all types of solid substrates. Rustico is mixed to match selected colours.
