What is ClimaGuard?

ClimaGuard is an advanced exterior coating engineered for South African climates. It reflects a significant portion of solar energy to reduce heat gain, protects substrates from UV, moisture and grime, and delivers a clean, durable, low-sheen finish.

Good to know

  • Finish: Low-sheen / matte.
  • Tools: Airless (517–521 tip @ ~1800–2200 psi), 12–20 mm nap rollers, quality brushes.
  • Maintenance: Gentle annual washdown; repair mechanical damage promptly.
  • Cut heat gain: Reflects solar energy to help keep interiors noticeably cooler.
  • Weather tough: Flexible film resists UV, rain and thermal cycling.
  • Moisture defence: Helps prevent water ingress and mould/mildew formation.
  • Dirt-shedding: Smooth, low-sheen finish for easier washdowns.
  • Low odour, low VOC: Suitable for occupied premises.

Where to use it

  • Roofs: Metal (galvanised/ZincAL), tile, fibre-cement.
  • Walls: Plastered masonry, fibre-cement cladding, sound previously painted surfaces.
  • Sectors: Residential, commercial/retail, warehousing/industrial, public/education.
  • Coastal & high-UV zones: Added protection against salt air and intense sun.

How to Apply

  1. Check conditions: Apply at 10–35 °C; RH < 85%; substrate < 40 °C; allow 4–6 h dry weather after application.
  2. Surface prep: Pressure-wash; remove dust/chalk/lichen; treat algae/mould; dry. Spot-prime bare metal with an anti-corrosive primer; prime galvanised/aluminium as specified; stabilise friable or porous plaster/masonry with a masonry/bonding primer.
  3. Mix: Stir thoroughly; box multiple tins for colour consistency.
  4. Apply: Airless, roller, or brush. Detail laps, fasteners and penetrations first. Apply two uniform coats; apply the second cross-directionally after recoat time. In hot/windy conditions, thin up to 5% clean water if needed.
  5. Coverage (guide): Smooth walls ~6–8 m²/L/coat; profiled roofs/textured ~4–6 m²/L/coat.
  6. Dry & recoat: Touch-dry 30–60 min @ 23 °C; recoat 2–4 h; full cure 5–7 days (conditions dependent).
  7. Clean-up: Water; dispose responsibly.
