This is graffitex. Its applied mostly outdoors and its more of a plaster than paint.
Its very thick and strong.
This must be the most durable coating.
Its made of mostly silica (treated smooth sand) and other paint materials.
Up to 5 drums of these paint would be required to paint a room.

TBrownAuto:


how much do you sell your premium and standard emulsion paint please advice which is good for exterior i dislike texcoat with passion

gbadexy:

My standard emulsion is N4000 per drum. Premium is N6000 per drum. Its a matte grade but not the washable eggshell matte.
You can use the premium grade emulsion for outside and it can last well outside.
The durability won't be as high as textured but it can last upwards of 7 yrs before repainting.

TBrownAuto:


the dimension of the house is 50 x 80 one story can you give rough coat premium is okay with me

TBrownAuto:
what i did is l x h so for the exterior what i get is 6m x 15m = 90sqm and for the other side is 6m x 25m = 150sqm so for the four side is 480sqm

i did not substract the window and door ooh but o problem just coat for that 480sqm.

OK people, this is the "Grand Finale" of the painting process.
I really love the outcome of the color combinations of the Paints and the Painter.

For those who are interested in the floor paint, you can see it below in or in the other post below.
The floor paint is not just an ordinary emulsion or gloss paint.. it's a special concrete floor paint,
I am sure Gbadexy will chime-in and remind us of the name and the duration..
This is a non-glossy and non-slippery paint, so you don't need to worry of falling when it rains and
it protects the floor concrete; same as we use here (USA) for concrete floors and terraces.
Gbadexy knows his stuff about paints.. Thank you.

confirm that is emulsion or textcoat the paint is mavelous

TBrownAuto:

confirm that is emulsion or textcoat the paint is marvelous

mufutau55:


Internal is High Grade Emulsion Matte Paints and External walls are Textured Emulsion Paints...
Is Textcoat and Textured Paint the same name? Sorry I have no idea on that, and Gbadexy can clear that.
But above is what I ordered and used. Thanks.

gbadexy:

Textcoat and textured emulsion are the same. textcoat got used ftom the corruption of textcote brand.
same way people refer to SUVs as jeeps.
They mean. the same thing. i just like using the proper description for it which is textured emusion paint.

spyder880:
This is a good one Oga Hajj. I will sell this idea to my newer clients, seems very solid.

The paint in the picture above is epoxy based paint. its like a plastic lamination and can withstand heavy impact like loaded forklift.
its more durable and costlier and has a service life of over 10 years in a shaded place even with high traffic. it lasts about 5 years though when exposed to direct sunlight regularly (u.v degradation). it get brittle as it degraded. so it is coated with another clear coat of varnish at an interval by professionals so that it act as sacrificial coaat.
polyurethane based floor paint has a much more resistance to u.v degradation but its very scarce.
The epoxy is a two component system comprising the coloured epoxy and hardner that is mixed at certain ratio to give a specific setting time just at the point of application to set like a plastic lamination and it actually spreads very far.

Well done brother. More power to your elbow.

Hope you no forget me o.

Thanks. I did not know they used Epoxy there.. I know me and you went thru many options for the floor before I settle with the poor man's taste.
And I surely know the epoxy will cost more money and last longer... but wait until I get the money oh! I like what I got from you for now.

So now tell me, I have also be researching another one called Acrylic Concrete Stainer, which will better between that and the Epoxy?
The Acrylic Concrete Stainer is not that expensive here but not sure in Nigeria... Pic of the finished Stainer is below. Thanks.

emmadejust:
* wow you are a good definator, am leaning from your knowledge of chemical and type of paint material,

What is (u.v)? ....

Which company do produce epoxy based paint and how much is the price?

What quantity it comes in litre?

@gbadexy,
I have a job for you - I did concrete flooring of my compound. But just after one year the concrete colour has changed and it is looking unattractive. Besides, a small portion of it (that was cast in d night) has started chipping out
How much will you do epoxy or acrylic paint staining for me... Total surface area is about 300sqm

gbadexy:

You cant use epoxy on that floor as i suspect the change in colouration is as a result of ground water evaporating and bring soluble salts to the surface. Thats why the concrete is damaging too in other part..
You need to reduce the porosity of the concrete by applying s penetrative silicate sealer to react with the soluble salts in the concrete to form insoluble salts that fill in the pores. This also densifies concrete.
After the sealant is dry, acrylic floor paint can be applied.
Accrylic floor paint will allow some little vapors that is bound to pass through the reduced pores in the concrete to escape without removing the paint from the floor.
The silicate or soluble penetrative sealer is N6000 per drum and the acrylic floor paint. is N18000 per drum.
you will need 3 drums each of the sealer and acrylic floor paint.
