Shield: high-performance waterproofing paint for South African walls and roofs

Rhinoluxe Shield is a premium pure-acrylic waterproofing paint for exterior walls and roofs in South African conditions. It forms a flexible, gap-bridging barrier that moves with the building to stop leaks and hairline cracks, and is built to handle coastal salt air and intense inland sun. Shield is a decorative coating and a waterproofer in one, backed by a 10-year warranty.

Key Benefits

  • 10-year warranty. Tested for long-term durability on walls and roofs.
  • Gap-bridging flexibility. The elastic film bridges craze and hairline cracks and resists their return.
  • Sea-breeze protection. UV-resistant resins withstand corrosive coastal salt air and strong sun.
  • High coverage. Spreads 6-8 m² per litre in a two-coat system.
  • Waterproof and decorative. One product seals and finishes the surface.

Technical Overview

Shield is a pure-acrylic elastomeric coating that cures to a continuous, flexible membrane. Applied at a dry film thickness of 45-50 microns per coat, it builds a dense barrier that resists water ingress while staying elastic enough to bridge movement cracks. Its UV-stable resins hold colour and integrity in coastal and high-exposure sites, so the waterproofing does not become brittle over time.
