maximum durability when applied on exterior natural masonry surfaces (non-
painted surfaces with acrylic paints), for duraons of approximately 20 – 30 +
years when used for Full Coverage. This does not include anque limewash eects
because of the heavy lime paint removal process. This product cannot be applied
