The Bedec Extra Flex Elastomeric Masonry Paint is designed for homeowners and professionals seeking a durable, flexible, and long-lasting protective coating for exterior masonry surfaces. Its key benefit is the ability to stretch and bridge fine cracks, preventing future damage caused by substrate movement. A potential caveat is the need for proper surface preparation to ensure optimal adhesion and performance.

It is ideally suited for exterior masonry, roughcast, pebble-dash, brickwork, cement, and concrete rendered surfaces. It can also be applied to previously painted surfaces after suitable preparation.
Coverage is approximately 9-11 square meters per litre per coat when applied by brush or roller. This will vary depending on the texture and porosity of the surface.
Yes, Bedec Extra Flex Masonry Paint can be applied by brush, roller, or spray.
Elastomeric means the paint is flexible and can stretch up to 400%. This allows it to bridge and prevent fine cracks caused by the natural movement of masonry, offering long-lasting protection.
It is water-based and quick-drying. Drying time between coats is typically 2-4 hours, but this can vary depending on temperature and humidity.
The paint is 'self-priming', meaning it can often be applied directly to suitable prepared surfaces, reducing the need for a separate primer coat.
Clean application tools immediately after use with water.
Clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Ensure the underlying cause of mould growth is addressed, such as persistent dampness.
Ensure the surface was properly prepared, clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, or loose material before application. For powdery surfaces, a suitable primer or sealer may be required.
Apply in thin, even coats, maintaining a wet edge. Ensure consistent application technique with your chosen tool (brush, roller, or spray). Stir paint frequently during application.
Avoid applying in very hot, dry, or windy conditions. Work in smaller sections and maintain a wet edge to prevent premature drying and lap marks.
Ensure the paint is applied generously enough to bridge the fine cracks. For larger structural cracks, these may need to be repaired with appropriate filler before painting.
Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned of existing mould/mildew before painting. Address any underlying moisture issues causing re-growth. Clean affected areas with a suitable mild detergent and water.
Surface Preparation:
Ensure all surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust, grease, and loose paint. For previously painted surfaces, abrade lightly if glossy. Any chalking or powdery surfaces should be brushed clean and treated with a suitable masonry primer or sealer. For new or bare surfaces like brickwork, render, cement, or concrete, ensure they are sound and weathered. Remove any algae, mould, or moss with a suitable cleaner and allow the surface to dry thoroughly.
Application:
Stir the paint well before use. Apply using a good quality brush, medium pile roller, or spray. Apply in thin, even coats. Two coats are generally recommended for best results. Allow adequate drying time between coats (typically 2-4 hours, depending on conditions). Avoid applying in very cold (below 10°C) or wet conditions, or when strong winds are present.
Coverage:
Approximately 9-11 square meters per litre per coat when applied by brush or roller. Coverage will vary depending on the surface texture and porosity.
Compatibility:
Suitable for exterior masonry, roughcast, pebble-dash, brickwork, cement, and concrete rendered surfaces. Can be applied to previously painted surfaces after appropriate preparation. Check compatibility with specific substrates if unsure.
Care:
Clean application tools immediately after use with water. For maintenance, clean the painted surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
