Exterior Project: Enhance Your Stone's Beauty with Zurich White Masonry Stain -Transparent Wash

On this project, our Pro-Installers used Masonry Stains mixed with Fixativ to give the surface a natural, see-through look without losing the stain's strength. They applied Zurich White, diluted to 50%, to achieve this effect. You can dilute our Masonry Stains with Fixativ up to 90%. The finished look cannot be replicated using latex/acrylic paints.
Why Choose Masonry Stains Over Regular Paints:
Keeps the Natural Look: Masonry stains soak into the brick, letting its texture and character show through. This gives a more authentic appearance compared to regular paint, which can cover up these details. UV protection doesn't hurt either, ensuring the color will not fade!
Lets the Brick Breathe: Stains allow moisture to escape from the brick, helping to prevent problems like mold or damage. Regular paints can trap moisture inside, leading to peeling or other issues over time.
Long-Lasting: Since stains become part of the brick, they're less likely to chip or peel. This means you won't need to touch them up as often as painted surfaces.
Low Maintenance: Stained bricks are easier to keep clean and don't show dirt as much as painted ones.
Cost-Effective Over Time: While staining might cost a bit more upfront, it lasts longer and needs less upkeep, saving you money in the long run.
In short, using masonry stains helps maintain the natural beauty of your brick, offers lasting protection, and reduces the need for maintenance compared to traditional paints.
