Johnstone's Trade Stormshield Jontex High Build Textured Masonry paint- is a high-build, heavy textured, one coat finish formulated for exterior use on cement rendering, rough cast, brick, concrete, cement sheeting and suitably prepared plywood panels. It is ideal for badly weathered surfaces, providing a heavy duty, flexible, long-term protection that covers small cracks and is suitable for application to badly weathered masonry surfaces. Available in brilliant white, and magnolia, Stormshield Jontex High Build Textured Masonry comes with a 15-year life expectancy.

Coverage- approximately 0.5–1 square metres per litre depending on the nature and porosity of the surface

Application- ensure sufficient material is available to complete each elevation or area. Maintain a working edge finishing only at design features, wall ends etc. Do not apply in temperatures below 10°C or when rain is imminent. Apply by: Roller: A self-textured finish is achieved by using an openstructure foam roller. Keep the roller head fully loaded and apply a thick even film overlapping each stroke as necessary to produce a uniform texture. Trowel: Apply a thick even film and texture with a sponge, comb, spatula or patterned roller. Air Assisted Spray: With a hopper gun use a 6mm tip at 40 psi and produce an even coat via small circular movements. A priming coat of Johnstone’s Stormshield Smooth or Textured Masonry Finish in a similar colour will assist coverage when applying by spray.

Drying Time- touch dry in 3–5 hours. Recoatable after 48–72 hours.
