Exterior coating

[dbucknavich]

Haven't seen this before. Seemed to work well to protect the ext. wood, but what do I call this coating? Not cementaceous, more like latex. Applied over block walls, stem wall, wood siding, and trim. Thanks

Is there pictures?

[dbucknavich]

Ah. Yes. Pictures. More better now. I figure this is just an ext sprayed paint right?

[Marcel R. Cyr]

Carl, that looks like they used a popcorn sprayer with colored stucco mix finish.

Carl will respond to this.

[dbucknavich]

Thanks Marcel.

[Carl A. Brown]

Paint with aggregate in it is what it looks like!

Alot of people doing strange things.

[Carl A. Brown]

Rhino bed liner?

[Carl A. Brown]

It looks like they shot/blew on acrylic finish!

[Carl A. Brown]

The picture of the column looks like dash stucco finish. With the paint on it to match the rest!

[dbucknavich]

OK good. I knew it was perculiar. Technically, this is protecting the ext right?

[Carl A. Brown]

Not where the cracks in the blocks are!

It is more cosmetic.

[dbucknavich]

Yeah I have that in there. Thanks though.

[Marcel R. Cyr]

Carl, whatever the product is, it sure looks like it was sprayed on.
And your right, it is cosmetics on the blocks.
Not much there for a rain screen.
