What is Rhino Shield?

yellow house with text: great on stucco Rhino Shield is a paint coating that is applied to stucco home exteriors, Tudor-style homes, and commercial stucco buildings in order to protect them from the elements. It is made up of elastomeric acrylic resins and ceramic microspheres, which give it the ability to expand and contract along with the surface it is applied to. This makes it incredibly durable and long-lasting – in fact, it comes with a 25-year warranty!

Why Should I Use It?

There are many reasons why you should use Rhino Shield on your stucco exterior. For one, it stops weathering by completely sealing the surface. This means that you won’t have to worry about cracks or fading anymore. Additionally, it is very low-maintenance – all you’ll need to do is hose it down every now and then – and it comes in a variety of colors so you can find the perfect match for your home.
