FAQs

How much paint do I need?

Coverage is up to 16m² per litre. Calculate the surface area of the walls and consider that two coats are required. The amount needed can vary based on surface porosity.

What is the best way to apply Sandtex Ultra Smooth Masonry Paint?

You can use a brush, exterior roller, or airless sprayer. For the best finish, apply the paint evenly, following the manufacturer's guidelines.

Can I use this paint on interior walls?

No, this paint is specifically designed for exterior use and is formulated to withstand the elements.

How long will the paint last?

Sandtex Ultra Smooth Masonry Paint is designed to last for up to 15 years, provided the surface is properly prepared and the paint is applied correctly.

What should I do if it rains shortly after painting?

This paint is rainproof within 1 hour of application, so light showers should not affect it. However, avoid painting if heavy rain is expected within the next few hours.

How do I clean the application tools?

Clean all tools with clean, cold water immediately after use. Dispose of any remaining paint responsibly.

Can I apply this paint over existing paint?

Yes, but it's essential to ensure the existing paint is sound and properly prepared. Clean the surface thoroughly, and remove any loose paint or flaking materials.
