Benefits of Using Permoglaze Flexiguard

Mauritius’ tropical climate can be unforgiving on exterior surfaces. Permoglaze Flexiguard protects against water, humidity and has excellent resistance to UV light, ensuring long-lasting protection.

  1. Versatility Across Substrates

This paint adheres perfectly to a range of materials, from concrete to metal and wood. Its versatility reduces the need for multiple specialised paints, saving time and costs.

  1. Durable and Elegant Finish

Flexiguard’s matt finish not only elevates the look of surfaces but also provides a robust layer that withstands wear and tear. It’s ideal for areas prone to heavy use or harsh weather.

  1. Eco-Friendly Choice

As a water-based paint, Permoglaze Flexiguard has low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It’s safer for both the environment and those applying the paint.

  1. Enhanced Strength and Protection

The siloxane resin in the formula strengthens the paint, creating an impermeable and hydrophobic film that protects your surfaces from water damage.

Permoglaze Flexiguard allows for high water vapor permeability, keeping surfaces protected while still letting them breathe.
